Jewel - from Colombia
Amy - part Scottish, part Maltese
Eriona - don't know where she's from, but somewhere Latin I think.

WDYT of their names? I thought Jewel was only a singer's name and I'd never ever heard of Eriona.

Jewel - Not to my tastes
Amy - Too boring & common! IMO anyway - not meaning any offence!
Eriona - Pretty written down. How is it pronounced?

Jewel - maybe better as a middle name...?
Amy - common, but not bad
Eriona - weird.

i like Jewel on a boy (it grew on me after I read As I Lay Dying) as a guilty pleasure :X

do you pronounce Eriona like Air-e-o-na or Eh-ro-nea? lol i've always wondered, because i have seen it before, but never actually heard anyone say it.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

It's Air-e-o-na :)
I think it reminds me of Epona, or some other greek name, but I can't figure out the meaning

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

Eriona is pronounced Air-e-o-na

AMY ROCKS!

I like the name Amy, but I'm partial cause I am one! :-) Unfortunately, there were always about five amys in my classes growing. it was a popular name in the eighties i think. I doubt that there are many if any little ones now named Amy though, BECAUSE in the eighties there was such a slew of them. Now everyone's sick of the name... but I think it should make a comeback lol
