So, when my mom was driving me home for Thanksgiving last week, I asked about her coworker, George, who is currently in the process of adopting his niece, who is about 6 months I believe.  I thought his niece was named Savannah because that is what my mom told me last month, well, apparently the little girl is actually named Virginia, which I think might be George's recently deceased mother's name, I might be making that up which is quite possible with me.  There is a Savannah in this situation though, she is, if I remember correctly, the daughter of George's girlfriend.

So what do you think of the names George, Virginia and Savannah?

I like Savannah, George is ok and I don't like Virginia.

George is too old-fashioned, I mildly like Virginia only in italian, and I have a soft spot for Savannah.

I love the name George!
Virginia is not too bad, but Savannah is a stripper name.

I love George. I like Virginia for the possible Ginny nickname, but I'm not a fan of Virginia or Savannah at all.

I think Virginia is pretty, but I don't think I'd ever use it. It was my paternal grandmother's name, and my favorite aunt was named for her, so I have positive connotations with it.

Savannah, I was never especially fond of. Some really stupid things happened in my life last year involving someone from Savannah, and to be honest, it has made me absolutely detest the name.

I hate the name George, although I have a dream of one day buying a female cat and calling her that. Strangely enough, I love the name Georgia, even with my hatred for all things Savannah-related.

George is rather boring.

Virginia makes me think of the US state and its hinterland and, well, that just makes me giggle.

Savannah, cute town & the name makes me think of wide open spaces. which is nice.

I will always have a soft spot for Savannah.
But George is sorta old-man like.
And Virginia makes me think of the state. Like if I met a Virginia, the state would pop into my head immediatly.

I love Virginia and we considered it for our daughter for a number of reasons. When she came out, though, she didn't look like a Virginia.

I worry about the "virgin" connotation as well as the word looking similar to "vagina"... but at least around here where we live (in, um, Virginia) I think the state association would come first.
