gathered from my classes.

New semester means new classes at school, and that means more interesting names for us to look at. These are a combination of nice just uncommon, okay, a little weird, and really ugly. Minus one who is a prof of mine, the ages are pretty much 18 to 22.

I literally just saw this name on a friend's Facebook: Nicoal. I've never seen that spelling of the name before.

A few weeks ago at work I overheard a woman call out for her young blond son in the bathroom. His name is Langston. What do you think of the name Langston?

Also, what do you think of the name Darcy? I wasn't too fond of it at first but after reading a couple of Emily Giffin books I'm starting to really like it.

i know 3 girls who are pregnant right now.

Two of them are having girls. One baby is Amya Faith and the other is Alice Denine.

The 3rd girl I know is having a boy and is going to name him Olee (Ollie).

WDYT?

seen on facebook: Emalyn. ugh. I'm assuming it's pronounced like Emma-lynn, but I could be wrong.

also, do you prefer Eli or Elijah?

Family names

[julia-michelle.livejournal.com]

What family names would you consider using in some way for future children?

From my side:
Elaine (this WILL be used)
Daniel (would consider using Danielle on a girl)
Fern (full name is Fernande, but I would only use the short form).
Giselle
Laurette (while the name is not my style at all, it is my dear late grandma's name and I would seriously consider using it as a second middle name in her honour).
Also, I would consider Yvonne. My grandpa is Yvon, and I would use the feminine version.

From my FH's side:
Matthew
Raymond
Elsa
Marley (f)
Mary
Diane

Edit to add: Also, Teada was being considered for me before I was born and is the only "made up" name I've ever appreciated. My grandpa took it from O'hAirtneada which was an original form of my mom's maiden name "Harnett". Not so much a "family name" but in a weird way it sort of is, and I would consider it.

What do you guys think of Lucy Alice?
It's really the only girl name I like (hard to find stuff to go with my last name), but I worry about it being a little too matchy. Not a really big deal, considering I'm pregnant with a boy, but I'm just curious on other people's opinions.
