If you could name your child after a singer...

If you named your wee girl after a singer, which names or name would you choose?

This singer can be from a movie, your favorite singer with a CD out or just one from an animated cartoon as well! Let's have fun with this one!

If I named one of my wee girls after a singer, I would either name her Celine Rose or Ariel Grace. How about the rest of you?

Ani :D I think I'd make it short for something... Ani Difranco's name is short for Angela, but I don't like Angela.

HELL YEAH!

I think Ani might be Hebrew for "I am." :)

Hmmm - I don't really like the names Janice (Joplin), Joni (Mitchell), Sheryl (Crow) or Aretha (Franklin). I kinda like Joplin, Mitchell and Franklin for boys though! I like Carole (King) as a middle name.

Regina.. as in Regina Spektor

[tokyo.livejournal.com]

I love her, but I don't like the name Regina. :(

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

I'd use Ani (DiFranco), Sarah (McLachlan), or Patty (Griffin). I like the boy names for my singers better: Bob (Dylan) [I'd use Robert as a middle name], Arlo (Guthrie), (Paul) Simon, or Arthur (Art Garfunkel).

I most likely wouldn't name my kids after musicians, though, because even though I love music, it's not the most important thing in my life or anything. I'd be much more likely to name my kids after my favorite writers.

Fiona. She isn't necessarily my favorite, but I like the name.

Julie (Julie Andrews)

I do plan to use this name, in the remote future hehe. Not sure about middle names yet, but they would be family names.

Norah, after Norah Jones. :) Torquil [the band Stars], for a boy maybe. Definitely loving Regina [Spektor].

Stevie, after Stevie Nicks of course. I'm not sure if I'd use it as a nickname for Stephanie (Ms Nicks' full name) or not.

I'd use mae after the band, considering that I used to be friends with them before they got a record deal. I'd probably only use it as a middle name though.

Morrison, Lennon, Dylan

[ber-waves-of.livejournal.com]

My son's name is Lennon :)

I LOVE Carole King but I hate the name Carole. LOL.

So probably go with my second choice, Carly Simon

Not necessarily naming after the singer herself, but I love Mariah Carey's name. I think Mariah is such a pretty name and it flows well with Carey/Carrie.

Ella after Ella Fitzgerald.

Dia (Meg & Dia)
Sarah (McLachlan)
Hayley (Williams, from paramore)

Your icon is mesmerising...
Zac Efron is not attractive at all, except in this film, where he just mzkes me melt!

[bobinwales.livejournal.com]

Hmm, there aren't many female singers I like. Marilyn after Marilyn Monroe is about the closest I can get I think!

Male singers... hmmm.
Well I love Tre Cool, Green Day's drummer, and I want to use Frnk which is his real name.
One of my favourite names is Gethin, which I heard from a band that played in my town, but I'm not naming him after them! Although they were very good!

I think that's it really!

[bobinwales.livejournal.com]

*Frank, not Frnk...
If only if I could spell my favourite names, haha!

[ifancylust.livejournal.com]

[anaphylexis.livejournal.com]

I've always liked the name Aaliyah.
