I knew a girl who was Jill Lynn (first and middle name), instead of Jillian. I also know a guy who is Ash Lee (first and middle name) instead of Ashlee/Ashley. Do you guys know of other combinations were the parents spilt up a normal name to make a first and middle name out of it?

I knew a Carrie Lynn, which is almost Carolyn.

I don't like it.

Yeah, that's like Jill Lynn, it doesn't seem to flow as nicely as the full name does.

I know an Emma Leigh which is probably one of the most ridiculous names I've ever heard.

Kymber Lee

It looks better than Emma Lee, but yeah, I agree. I don't like it either. I keep wanting to say Emma Leah, even though I know Leigh is pronouced as Lee.

...oh my. Poor child. Would that be a boy or a girl? I can see Kymber/Kimber as a boy's name for some reason (even though babynames.com says it's a girl's), but all the Kimberly's I've ever known are girls.

Emma Lee/Leigh (i know two of these, one is very, very young)
Jewel Leigh (my cousin went to school with her- so she's about 19/20yrs old)
Carol Lynne (older woman)

eh, that's the same as i have feelings about names like: London, Berlin (Berlyn, etc), Camden... i'm always like, "no... cities, places, no" lol

My band director's name is Carroll Lynn.

..he's a guy, haha. His siblings all have strange names. Something like..Arvid and Venata?

I had a child in my class last year called Anna Belle.

[politicking.livejournal.com]

yeah, i can see that... that's how i feel about the names Camden, Jersey, Trenton. while i know they are names of other places, obviously, those more well known places here in the US are not great. Jersey isn't bad as a whole, but Camden, eugh. what a horrible city.

& i know some people aren't set out on naming their child after a particular city (ie: Paris after Paris Hilton or something lol), but that connection will still be there. i'd rather the connection be to a place, or something, not half bad lol

I could see Carroll for a guy but Carroll Lynn? That just seems wrong for some reason o.o

I don't understand (maybe your cousin said why) but why not just call her Emily and nickname her Emma instead of making it Emma Leigh?
