Nice Names For A Change

[snoglobel.livejournal.com]

Some Facebook friends who I think have the "classiest" and "most traditional" names, all young 20's. I saw a photo with Katherine, Miriam, and Alma and for the first time was struck by how old, but refreshing, they sounded together. Then I decided to compile a list of other names I felt were equally classic from my other friends. I like them all - what do you think?

Katherine
Miriam
Alma
Alice
Inga
Juliet
Laurel
Nigel
Ruth
Sarah
Thomas
Elizabeth
Rebecca (Becky)

Beyond Jennifer, Jason...

[grasshulaskirt.livejournal.com]

In the book ' Beyond Jennifer, Jason, Madison and Montana' one of the mentioned trends was upper class families naming their babies something and 15 years later or so, all the other classes follow suit.

My name is Emma, and while I barely know any other Emma's my age, I hear it being screamed in the supermarket constantly today.

Aside from the meaning and fortune of a name, popularity is the most important factor for us. Third is versatility, can you pronounce it in French/ German etc..What about you?

P.s using the baby name trends when I met my friends 13 year old daughter, Kayleigh, I said " everyone is named Kayleigh, Madison or McKenzie these days" my friend said " Madison and McKenzie are her best friends"!

My cousin and his wife had a baby just a little over a week ago, and named her Hannah Noelle. WDYT? I love it, myself. I like both names seperately (REALLY like the name Hannah!) and I think they sound great together! :D

While I'm at it, I'll list the names of babies that my fb friends have had 'recently'; say up to a couple of years ago:

Alexis (the mother's name is Apryl, and I have another girl on fb named Aprill. What's wrong with plain ol' April?!?)
Carter Jacob Donald (another cousin's little boy)
Kingston Albert Patrick
Myra Joanne Rose & Michael John George (twins)
Paige

Oh, I thought there were more, but apparently not. :( There are a whole bunch of people who are pregnant on my list, but I couldn't see if they'd chosen the name yet, so oh well.

Twi-hard!

I saw a birth announcement for a baby today at my dr whose name was Isobela Cullen. Her middle name was Sophiella, or something, I don't remember. I just know she was born in April of '09, so who knows if the parents got the name from the book or not. Lol, all I know is changing the spelling of Isabella doesn't help much! Just wanted to share that, I thought it was kinda funny. ;P
