:shrug:



beats the pooh outta me...but, I used to like them way back then in the long ago

[joneschick]

33. that's my daughter #2

and she likes it too. She's a Jr in hs, and has yet to meet another Nora, which she likes. :hi:

[datasuspect]

3. male names

same as catholic saints.

where i grew up it was all anthonys, josephs, peters, pauls, etc. you could not find one drew, cody, dakota, sterling, brent, brett, brant, chet, chad, logan, or otherwise if you looked all day.

favorite female name:

violet. it was my grandmother's name. molly is nice too.

but please, there ARE ALREADY ENOUGH HEATHERS IN THIS WORLD.

[MissHoneychurch]

4. Violet is a beautiful name

I am a sucker for old names.

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. My niece is named Violet.

She is 4 1/2 and it is the perfect name for her. :hi:

[nosillies]

6. More boy names, please

I've got to figure one out by Christmas and I'm honestly just not the least bit interested. I had girl names picked (have for years!), but I'm being lazy with boy names.

And I really like Adrian, as I love Entourage. It's piqued my interest.

[MissHoneychurch]

8. It is funny

I have less problems finding girl names I like than boy names :shrug:

Another male name I like is Jonathan or just Nathan.

[datasuspect]

11. please tell me you will NOT consider naming your child entourage

the horror the horror!!!

cornelius is a cool name, or balthazar.

what about vladimir.

his friends can call him Vlad.

[MissHoneychurch]

12. I had a friend when I studied

who's name was Vladimir. We called hiom Vladi.

[datasuspect]

14. i like vlad because of vlad tepes

vlad the impaler.

a kinda neat romanian historical figure.

[nosillies]

30. No silly! Adrian for Adrian Grenier

And I will not name him Turtle or Drama either.

[datasuspect]

32. oh. does this have something to do with teevee entertainment product?

i reread and sussed that.

[av8rdave]

7. I'm a hitchhiker fan....

I prefer names like Slartibartfast and Zaphod, although I've never won the fight to name a pet either of those.

I'm a big fan of my kids' names...Kevin and Caitlin

[billyskank]

9. Holly, Laura, Rachel

As for guy's names, I like Richard, which is nice considering that's my name. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

10. All really nice names

so you will call your son (if you have one) Richard jr? :D

[billyskank]

13. Absolutely not!

The practice of naming ones' son after oneself seems megalomanic to me. Anyway, that habit in Britain is traditionally confined to the monarchy. As far as I know, it is only in America where ordinary people have taken to the practice.

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. ...

:loveya:

[billyskank]

23. ...

I :loveya: too. :hug:

[xmas74]

15. You know what mine was.

The second choice was Flannery.

For a boy I wanted Edward or Henry. Idiot wanted to name HIS son Duncan McCloud. (Yep, he was a big Highlander fan.)

[MissHoneychurch]

16. Duncan alone is OK

but Duncan McCloud??? Lucky, you had a girl.

Flannery reminds me too much of flammerie, which is a kind of a pudding here in Europe.

[xmas74]

17. But it was after Flannery O'Connor.

She might have been made fun of as a child but by high school-the lit teachers would have adored her.

And D_ never had a choice in the name. He left way too early.

[ScreamingMeemie]

19. Nicole and James are my favorites for obvious reasons.

But for girls I like Mary, Elizabeth, and Sophie.

Boys names I like are Benjamin, Robert, Richard and Thomas. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

21. My mom would have called me Benjamin

if I would have become a boy :)

:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

22. That was the name we had picked for our last child.

But I lost him. I liked it because it means littlest or last. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

28. ...

:hug:

[MissMillie]

24. My son's name is Timothy

So obviously that's a favorite of mine.

I also like Brent, Leonard and Theo.

For girls: Lily, Iris, and Rose (hmmm... I sense a theme there...)

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Good names

Lemme guess ... you like flowers??? :rofl:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

46. Good pick!

:-)

[Left Is Write]

25. Adrian is one of my favorite men's names too.

Likewise, I like the feminine version Adrienne.

Another favorite men's name of mine is Julian.

[MissHoneychurch]

26. We have a similar taste in men's names

I like Julian too.

:D

[Left Is Write]

29. I decided at age 15 that I wanted to have a son named Julian.

And so, Julian is my son's name! :)

[_testify_]

31. Boys: Nathan, Elliot, and David

Girls: Madeleine, Elizabeth and Tamara

[querelle]

:rofl::spank::hug:

[Mutley]

42. ...

O8)

:evilgrin:

[Broken_Hero]

37. okay

male:Alexander, Donald, Tiberious, Magnus........:P

female:Vanessa, Margaret, Rose.........

[skygazer]

38. I love the name Claire

Also Kate.

For boys, I like Jon, Eric and Alex. I like names that you can't automatically get a nickname from. I hate it when people shorten or change someone's name (unless the person wants that, of course).

[stlsaxman]

39. i love these names...

Girls... Helen, Maria, Nora, Monica, Rita, Christine, Nanci (yes-with an "i"), Eileen (sp?)...

Boys... Artemus, Benet, Dominic, George, Angelo, Tracy...

[reyd reid reed]

40. I'm kinda old-school

My favorite name for a girl is Elisabeth. I used Sarah, though.

For boys: Jon, Daniel, Steven, James.

The ones that make me crazy? Names like Schuyler and Tyfani and Heaven Leah.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

41. Hmm.....

For male names I like exotic Indian or Middle Eastern names such as Hussein, Rajiv, Sanjay and the like. I'm also amenable to names such as Philip

For women I like western names like Judy, Cheryl, Carolyn, Susan, Virginia, Mary Anne, Mary Alice, Patricia, Pamela, Charlene, Dianne, Andrea, Marianne, Philippa and so on

[RiffRandell]

43. Ian Ross and Evan Frances

That would be my son and daughter. Yes, my daughter's name is Evan.

[LadyoftheRabbits]

44. Mine:

Female: Catherine, Ailenor, Avanti, Genevieve. (Really odd, I know.) :crazy:

Male: ehh, not picky :P Michael is one...

[last_texas_dem]

45. I like

Natalie, Michelle, and Leora for girls. For boys, I'm fairly indifferent; I like most of the traditional boys' names equally, and I generally like the traditional and fairly common names more than the unusual or trendy ones. Boys just seem kind of boring to pick names for, but maybe it's just my boring taste in boys' names!

[Straight Shooter]

47. Female: Sarah, Grace, Olivia, Amanda

Male: Eric, Daniel, Alan, Johnny Depp ;)
