I frequently play video games. I love to play MMORPGs (as well as regular RPGs) like Materia Magica. I keep using the same name for my characters. When I say it out loud, though, I am unsure of how to actually pronounce it. The name is Sevaede.

I usually say sev-uh-eed. My sister pronounces it as suh-vade. What do you think?

Naming style

[ouronlylight.livejournal.com]

So, I'm pretty sure that this quiz was posted here a while ago, but I just rediscovered it and thought that I would offer it up for the masses to play with. I'm not sure how accurate it is anymore, as its copyright date is 1999 and I found that my categories didn't quite suit me (at least judging by the example names), but it's still a fun little quiz nonetheless.

Anyway, it's here. My results were forty percent "classic conservative", thirty percent "modern conservative", fifteen percent "classic eccentric", ten percent "classic unusual", and five percent "modern unusual". (My picks were Lola, Alexander, Alessandra, Anna, Andrew, Braydon, Sean, Dylan, Austin, Jack, Jason, Julia, Cordelia, Julian, Elizabeth, Emily, Michaela, Morgan, Sarah, and Thomas.)

Also, just because I'm curious, I want to know how y'all would classify me, name-wise type. I tend to like traditional names (though they sometimes stray into the trendy/modern). I also really like Irish/Gaelic names on boys and Spanish/Italian names on girls. ( But see for yourselves... )

please please help me!!

I like the name Ryder for any future male children. The thing is I already have a son named Ryan. Too close? What do you think?

April
Poppy
Scarlett

Middle names;
June (obv not for April lol)
Jane
Joan
Joy
Jazz
Juliet

Any other J name you think would fit with the others please offer! thanks!

What do you guys think of Wolverine for a boy? :) We both like X-Men, that's our excuse. Hopefully our someday-son will like it too. :D

Also, is it too weird to name a child after a dead pet? My cat was Rosalyn, which is a beautiful name... but she wasn't a relative or anything. :(

Two Questions

[holysheep.livejournal.com]

1) What do you think of the names Ava and Amelia for a sibset? We know we only want two girls at the maximum -- his family prefers mainly male children -- and these were the only two names we both liked. We know Amelia would be the older one. Middle names are still a bit iffy...

2) What are your favorite German names? Girls AND boys. We know we want really strong, strong German names for our boys. We haven't found any German girls names that we both love besides Ada, but it's too close to Ava. If you guys have any suggestions, that would be great.

ETA: We already have two sons, Dierk and Jens.

If you had a baby tomorrow, what would you name it?

"The boy's and girl's name Sean \sean\ is pronounced shon. It is of Irish origin. Variant of John (Hebrew) "God is gracious", from the FrenchJean. Spread outside of Ireland only in the 20th century. Occasionally used in hyphenated names. Heavily influenced by actors Sean Connery and Sean Penn. Basketball player Shawn Kemp; actors Sean Hayes, Sean Astin, Sean Bean; musician and entrepreneur Sean "P. Diddy" Combs.
Sean has 7 variant forms: Sean-Carlo, Sean-Mark, Sean-Patrick, Shane, Shaughn, Shaun and Shawn.
Baby names that sound like Sean are Seann, Cian, Xan, Sion, Swen, Swain, Swayn, Syon and Zan."

What do you guys think of the name Viktor for a boy? :)

I'm just now starting... so that's the only name so far. I want names that are unique but not TOO unique.

Girl names are harder for me to come up with for some reason!

Names on People

[christhiane.livejournal.com]

I like many names in theory, but when I hear people actually have it, I suddenly don't like it that much.E.g., I like the name Linnea, but now that I know of a girl named it (I don't really have an opinion of her as a person) I sort of don't like it anymore.

Am I the only one this happens to?

A girl came into my work today, and her name was Bryndis. I thought it was interesting and so I looked up the meaning. It's Icelandic and it means "armored goddess". I had never heard the name before but it suits her nicely and its starting to grow on me.

WDTY?
