Actually, Peerless doesn't have a negative meaning. It means "unequalled or unrivalled" according to AskOxford.

(I still think it's a pretty silly name, though).

Well that's good to know at least.
I'd be pretty upset if someone named their child knowing the meaning of the name was 'no friends'. Lol.

i like:
jasper
daria--although i'll always associate it with the mtv cartoon
mina

Yeah ... it's the kind of word you see in Shakespeare or Spenser, so any kid named that probably has snooty English professor parents who think they're being clever.

Then again, I know of a couple who are English professors and they have a daughter named Una. *sigh*

I like Gabrielle and Jasper.

I think of Horace and Jasper from 101 Dalmations for Jasper, so that is a no.

Mina is a boys name to me as the only Mina I've ever known was a guy.

[crzydimond.livejournal.com]

For real? It doesn't seem too masculine to me. Was it of any particular nationality?

[monalyssasmile.livejournal.com]

I have no idea, he is of Asian descent (I can't for the life of me remember where though).

I love Kenneth and Karen. I think Clark and Eileen are okay. I don't like the rest.

Peerless just makes me think of the football player Peerless Price. (Don't know what his parents do for a living.)

Una is more usable than a lot of the Faerie Queen names (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Faerie_Queene), I think. Britomart, for instance, just sounds like a grocery store. ;)

[lilacmermaid.livejournal.com]

Britomart has kind of grown on me, actually. And Una's not bad either ... I would just be afraid of people pronouncing it Yoo-na :S

[memorymaze.livejournal.com]

I like
Kenneth
Emerald
Daria
Nicole (it's been growing on me like crazy lately)

I kind of like Jasper, but an exbf of mine had a cat named Jasper, so it's all I think of when I hear the name.

emerald

[sweet2datee.livejournal.com]

emerald sounds cool like a jewel a piceless jewel
you'll love showing her off like a piceless jewel lol

Peerless usually means "exemplary" like, this guy is so awesome that he leaves his peers behind.

i only like Lawrence out of all these.
