Because it's more fun to play on livejournal than to finish my research paper that is due tomorrow, I present you with my favorite baby names:

Girl: Camdyn Aimee (or Amy, but I don't really like the combination of two "y"s)

Boy: William Trevor

So yeah, I'm not planning on having children anytime soon, but I've always wondered what other people would think of my favorite names.

I like your choices...Camdyn is on my short list for girls and William and Trevor are both on my short list for boys-but not in that combination-although it does sound nice together!

That's really neat that you like the name Camdyn as well. I've never come across anyone who has even heard of it.

well I really like the show 7th Heaven and their last name is Camden...and I always thought it was a nice name but never really thought about it as a first name until I got pregnant, and my husband actually mentioned it for a boy or a girl...but we ended up naming our first one Tristan (boy) and our second one Skylar (girl) so the next one (if there is a next one) might get Camdyn :)

I never even thought about that connection! =) Tristan and Skylar are both very pretty names. Camdyn/Camden would work if it was a boy or a girl too!

I went to school with a boy named Camden - love it :)

I think both of those names are great.
I agree w/ the two "y"s, I like the way u spelled Aimee :)

I'm glad someone else sees a little reason in my strange ways of thinking. =) Aimee is actually the French version of Amy if I'm not mistaken...

oh trust me, i can relate to the strange ways of thinking.we went thru our fair share of names before we settled on Lyric Marie.Some say its beautiful and others ask me what the heck we're thinking and pray we have a boy so he has a normal name-Joshua.lol

If you spelled Camden this way you wouldn't have a problem with the two "y"s. Camden was one of the streets I grew up on.

Yeah, I thought about that, but then I think that having the Y in Camdyn allows it to be a little more feminine. It's funny you should say that, Camden is actually the county that I grew up in.

You're right, it does, so if you like it better that way then you should keep it and work out a middle name.

Hmph...I wonder what the origins of the name Camden are?? I'm in MA, where are you?

Foudn it:

From a surname which was from a place name perhaps meaning "enclosed valley" in Old English. A famous bearer of the surname was the English historian William Camden.

I remember reading something like that when I first found the name Camden. Normally I would be put off by such a strange meaning, but I really like the name, so I guess I can get over it =)

I'm in Ga

hehehe...you just made me think of Singin' in the Rain...when Debbie Reynolds is driving Gene Kelly home and she gets to the corner she says "here we are, Sunset and Camden" in a sing-songy voice...

I hadn't even though of Camden as a street till you said that you lived there.

I like how you spell Aimee. and I agree about the Y's. My name is Amy Kay and I think it has too many A's and Y's.

I have a Rat named Amie... so theres another spelling.

yup.

Thanks. You know, I didn't even notice that your name had two a's and y's. I think it sounds very pretty together.

I had a hamster (who was my baby) that I named Liam, which is my choice nickname for William. I hate the name Willie...

My pets names are Bart, Mace, Terahlyn, Amie, Zoey, Thanatos and Devi Maria.

Thanatos is in my icon. :) all but Mace and Bart are named after original characters of mine and my friend.

I like how you spell Aimee. I do not like Camdyn, no matter how you spell it. It just seems like a last name or a masculine name to me, even with a Y. I like your boys name, though. Not something I would choose, but it's nice.

An area of London is called Camden. It's really cool and "alternative", they have a great market there too. But it is full of druggies and tramps, so having been there I can't really think of it as a name for a person. But without the association I'm sure I'd love the name! But I prefer it spelt Camden.

I think that was probably my favorite game when I was little. Maybe there's a subconscious connection between the two. [not really, but it sounded semi-smart] =)

I think I like Camden/Camdyn better than Camren/Camryn
