I love AD.

I have no problem with Maeby as long as it's not her REAL name. Mae is a GREAT first name. I also have a soft spot for Maybelle. There's a Maybelle in Gone With the Wind.

I love the name Maeby. I think it's cute. It doesn't really make me think MAYBE when it's assigned to a person.

I like your names. :D I accidently voted no to Jack though. I meant a thumbs up!!

yay ad!

I only voted on the ones I really like. There should be a "neutral" option. Haha.

So those were: William, Lucas, Ian, Callum, Edward, Graham, Andrew, Patrick, Gabriel; Lucille, Adelaide, Bridget, Margaret, and Lauren. And Caroline I just decided I like, too.

And I voted down on Lena. I think it's ugly and it's not easy to say. I had a kid in a class I taught named Lena and it was annoying. Haha.

I will also say that I prefer Lucy/Luci for Lucille, though Lucky is unique and kind of fun. And I don't love Eddie, though on a kid I guess it's cute. He wouldn't have to use it as an adult.
The more unusual male names I liked are Callum and Graham. I knew a kid named Callum who was about 7' tall (no joke), so I always joked that he was a column. If your kid is in danger of being that tall, that's a joke he might hear sometimes. Ha. Graham I don't think really fits with the other names on your list (or at least the ones I voted for), but I do like it. A cute nickname (not that it really needs one) might be Gray.

i know, right. they need a "don't care either way" button. sad to say, i don't even vote on the boys names. haha. weird of me, i guess. i have two girls, i don't care.
