A few family names I like

[rroso.livejournal.com]

Boy:
Maxton (a variation of my gpa Max) 
Hume - Perhaps as a middle name, it was my great-great gma's maiden name
Albino- I love this name (pn Al-BEE-no) it was my dh's g-gpa  (they're italian), but I don't think I could use it, especially since I'm so fair skined, I wouldn't want my baby to be made fun of for being an albino.

Girl:
Leila (pn Lee-I-La) - My gma's great Aunt
Lyda - My dh's great grandma
Ella- another great-great gma
Neva- another great aunt

 So I just started college and my professors have some interesting names.

Danisa (Chile)
Adam (America)
Niloufer (India) (f)
Ausra (Lithuania)

I like them all.

Also, I'm reading A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Houssini and there are some really pretty names.
Those that are starred are the ones I like.

Alaska

What do you all think of the name Alaska for a girl?
It was a book character, and it just popped into my head again. I quite like it, actually.
Also, what middle names would go well with it?

today in math, my friend was talking about a trip he took to southeastern california. while there, he went into a gas station where the woman working was named "j'cole". like, nicole with the "juh" sound instead of ni... i'm not sure if there are people in this community who like the apostrophe in a name, but could someone explain the appeal? i don't understand.

name i liked this weekend

[shishenbelle.livejournal.com]

So recently i decided i adore this name, and i have had VERY
mixed reactions on it - what do you think

for a girl:

Minnie

i would probably have it as a nickname, perhaps for
Margaret (or something you come up with

Theodora

[flannel-flowers.livejournal.com]

Can you give me suggestions for two-syllable middle names to go with Theodora?

Our last name is one syllable, so the whole name would flow best if the middle name had the emphasis on the first syllable (e.g. Car-in rather than Cor-inne, make sense?)

Our son's first and middle initials are both Js, and I'd kind of like to continue with that pattern for the rest of our children, but I can't find a two-syllable T name I like. Except for Taylor or Tyler.. but my sister already used Taylor for her second girl's middle name, and Tyler is masculine and so is Theodora, so I kind of want to stay away from those.

So, any feminine two-syllable names (preferably with emphasis on the first syllable, T or not), would be greatly appreciated. : ) Thanks.

If it makes a difference in your choice, most likely we'll be calling her Theo for short.

[Poll #1051364][Poll #1051364] I'm due in January with my third baby, and we aren't finding out the sex which makes this whole naming ordeal a whole lot worse. With my first two, we found out what sex they were, but this one we want to leave as a bit of a Christmas Surprise.

Thus, any opinions would be fabulous. Thanks!
