Drusilla

[ouronlylight.livejournal.com]

What do y'all think of when you hear the name Drusilla?

I think it's really pretty, but it makes me think of Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Drusilla, which makes me think of vampires and insanity and torture and goth subculture. If few other people get those connotations, though, I feel like it would make me feel better and I could add it to my list.

Anyway, thoughts?

Name of a friend of mine: Nadia Lyre.

WDYT? I sorta like it as a middle name, like a more unique alternative to Lee, but when she first said it I thought she'd said Liar.

Her sister is Lyra Nadine, which I like (even though the match names thing is a bit weird).

Also met a guy named Vallen, and thought that was a pretty cool name.

I'm praying that these are names they've given themselves, but....has anyone seen the one team on The Amazing Race?

Dog names.

In the random fact book I'm reading at the moment ('Everything You Didn't Need To Know About The UK') I came across lists of the top ten names for dogs (male and female) in the UK. Anyway, I just found it interesting that - with the exception of Buster - they are all "human" names, even if a lot of them are a little nicknamey.

The Game I Played At Work Today

This morning I had the newspaper open on the table, reading the birth notices (as usual).  I decided to play a game with my two colleagues.

"Okay," I said, "There are twins here.  Pick the one that's the girl.  The names are Jordan Lee and Logan Taylor."

( It was a trick question... )

Match the siblings game!
