Friend's New Baby

[how-obscure.livejournal.com]

A guy I went to high school with just became a father. The baby is named Atticus John.

Objectively, I think it's a pretty great name. The fact that I can say this means I've come a long way because I've always hated that first name for OCD reasons. So non-objectively, I kind of cringe at the first name choice, although I do ever so love John as a middle name.

WDYT?

Hazyl

Girl who served me yesterday. I never used to like Hazel but it was by association with someone I didn't really like. It grew on me though after I worked with a girl called Hazel who is awesome. This girl was maybe late teens so I don't know if creative spellings are even as new as I thought they were.

I recently started back to college and there is a girl in my class called Linzi. I now know two young women who spell their name that way. I really like Lindsay but for some reason that spelling with the Z isn't super offensive to my eyes.

WDYT? :)

When I was getting my tattoo on Thursday I started talking to the guy who was doing it just to pass time. He mentioned he was about to become a father to a little girl.

Lennox reminds me of a printer or something but what do you think?

a couple girl names

soo i've always liked the name Cera, but my husband has shot that down. i thought Cera Ashley or Cera Aislinn / Cera Ashlynn would be a pretty combo since my husband wanted to incorporate Ash(e) in there somewhere. wdyt?

in the last few weeks, Evalena (i'm not sure on the actual spelling but it'd be pronounced Ehv-uh-lean-uh) has become a bit of an obsession of mine lol. i fell in love with it from a DW episode :) i was wondering if Effy would be too far of a stretch for a nn?? && River has caught my eye too. not only bc of DW but bc a family that i met at the beginning of the summer had a lil girl named River && it just sounded adorable && suited the child quite nicely tbh. wdyt?

we're still not sure wat we'd use as the actual names for J.D. but we have agreed we both of us like John Darius Wilton..so i'm sure that'll the be winner lol. i like John Dallas Wilton but i do think Dallas is very cute on a girl..soo that's still up for debate. wdyt, do you like Dallas on a boy or a girl or does it not matter??
