I really like the names Tobias and Elias. They seem, I don't know, fresh. And Hawthorne is a cool and different name. Oscar is an older name but I still love it.

Addison + Amelie both on my list of names, those are my favourites.
Oscar would be adorable too.

Meh, I have more, I just couldnt think of them. I've noted them down before, but I lost the entry =(

I lol'd when I saw your Hawthorne comment, not because the mice died, but because it was so random.
I agree that Elizabeth is boring, but it is stable and people know how to spell it. That is one thing that my mum has drummed into me, always name your child something that people dont have to ask you how to spell (because she got annoyed at having to spell her name out all the time)

And I spelt Elodie wrong. Go me.

[curious-cookie.livejournal.com]

Eloide= Elodie. I'm a doofus and cant spell.

His dark materials? me? fan? what would give you that impression? =o! lol

I only like Christian because of Moulin Rouge!, not because of its connotations to religion.

[queen-mab.livejournal.com]

Ohhh okay. Elodie is pretty cool, although it reminds me a lot of Melody.

WOOOOOO HIS DARK MATERIALS.

And ooooh, yes, I see why you like Christian. I love Moulin Rouge, too. :) And the character.

[starchild82.livejournal.com]

Oh oh oh I hadn't even thought of Lyra (and I loved the books)! I'm totally using that :)

[anapology.livejournal.com]

Oh I absolutely agree.
My name is Sophy. Not Sophie :-/ It's so so annoying having to introduce myself as 'Sophy with a Y'
But I prefer names that are not as popular and common as Elizabeth yet not so out there people wouldn't know how to spell them.
You have a couple of lovely ones on your list :-)
My favourite name is Anabelle, trouble is there are other ways to spell it. Annabel, Anabell etc.. and I adore Anabelle, a bit of a random one.
