Came across a kid named Adriel today. Its traditionally a masculine name but I think it would work on a girl, too

WDYT? 

Boys' names

[hotchpot.livejournal.com]

Same game, only now with your favorite boys' names.

List your top ten favorite names (first and middle) for boys! Then go to the social security website HERE and find the rank for each name for 2006 in the top 1000. Then translate your names by making them comply with the following years.

1. 1966
2. 1942
3. 1909
4. 1888
5. 1923
6. 1974
7. 1981
8. 1938
9. 1957
10. 1999

Doris?

[hotchpot.livejournal.com]

A lot of old names are becoming new again. I've noticed Dorothy being used a lot more. Well, what about Doris? It actually has a beautiful meaning:

DORIS

Gender: Feminine Usage: English, German Pronounced: DOR-is (English), DO-ris (German)   [key]

Ancient Greek name which meant "Dorian woman". The Dorians were a Greek tribe who occupied the Peloponnese starting in the 12th century BC. Doris was also the name of a Greek sea goddess.

I think that it would be ridiculously cute to see a little curly-haired girl in pink overalls running around named Doris. Dory and Dorie and Dora are good nicknames. What do you think? Is there any life in this old girl?

NOTE: This was my grandmother's name and before she died she made me promise NEVER to name my daughter Doris because she hated it. But if I ever used it, it would probably be as a middle name for Elisabeth. Elisabeth Doris doesn't look TOO bad, I don't think.

I have so much trouble with boys names that aren't popular.  I am finally admitting that I do like the name Drake, although it makes me feel like a teeny bopper because of Drake Bell (and yes I do like his music, which embarrasses me because I'm 21, and no that is not the reason I like the name).  So, my question is what do you think of the sib set of Aurelia, Violet and Drake or Aurelia, Ada and Drake?

Also what do you think of the name Eulalia?  It hasn't been in the top 1000 since 1938 (or around there).

i'm having a hard time choosing between matthew and cameron.
when we were expecting our daughter, we had matthew picked out as the name had we had a boy so this time around it's also at the top of of list. lately though the name cameron keeps coming to me. i had a dream the other night that i had a son and his name was cameron. before that i hadn't really considered the name since we were so sold on matthew but now i'm leaning towards cameron. i adore the nickname cam.
so which sounds better..

matthew john richard

or

cameron john richard

TIA!

Also, the guy I work with told me his full name the other day. Previously I had just called him Jamie, but his full name is James Leander. He got a bit freaked out when I told him how much I loved his middle name!

Someone post a name game, I'm rubbish at thinking up the ideas, but I might die of boredom soon, haha!

Okay...

Isla

"eye-luh" or "ee-luh"  ??

I think both sound pretty, but I always say "ee-luh" because I'm pretty sure it's how you pronounce the Spanish word for "island."

I just saw this name in the newspaper. One year old girl named Alivya. I like the name Olivia. I'm kind of meh on the name Alivia, but spelled Alivya? Just...no.


Edit: Oh, and it gets worse. I hadn't made it to the first birthdays section, yet. Among the four children celebrating first birthdays are

Masen Allen *lastname*

Twins: Jahneesa Louise and John Lewis *lastname*....children of Jennifer and Jay.
