Englebertine is kinda cute. You know, for a pet or fictional character or something. Same with Hélio.

Englebertine - and i almost snorted up my latte.... THANKS! ha ha ha. sorry but seeing this, my mind automatically played:

And Engelbert Humperdinck! Yes, he was the man. That's not his real name; he's from Britain, but that's not his name. There's very few Humperdincks in Britain. He was born Gerry Dorsey, not Engelbert Humperdinck. His parents were not Mr. and Mrs. Humperdinck. They never said' :

"What shall we call our son so he does not get the shit kicked out of him at school?"

“We shall call him Engelbert!"

"Good, that'll work!"


No, his name was Gerry Dorsey, and he released songs as Gerry Dorsey, songs such as ( mumbles ) which didn't work ‘cause nobody could hear what he was saying. And then his managers, obviously, said, "We're going to change your name, Gerry! It's the name that's the problem." And his name changed from Gerry Dorsey to Engelbert Humperdinck. I mean, I just wanted to be in the room when they were working that one through.... :

"Zingelbert Bembledack! Yingybert Dambleban! Zangelbert Bingledack! Wingelbert Humptyback! Slut Bunwalla!"

"What?!"

"All right, Kringelbert Fishtybuns! Steviebuns Bottrittrundle..."

"No! Gerry Dorsey, I like Gerry Dorsey!"

"No, we can't do it... Who we got? Zingelbert Bembledack, Tringelbert Wangledack, Slut Bunwalla, Klingybun Fistelvase, Dindlebert Zindledack, Gerry Dorsey, Engelbert Humptyback, Zengelbert Bingledack, Engelbert Humperdinck, Vingelbert Wingledanck…"

"No, no, go back one. Go back one."

"Engelbert Humperdinck?"

"That's it!"

gotta love the Izzard!

Jeroen, Marga, Gerrit & Lisanne are all common names here =)

And I like Neva! I never thought 'never' until you mentioned it. It's Gaelic.
I also sort of like Alegria & Solena, but not enough to use them.

I knew 2 Cedars, they both attended my college, which is quite unusual because my college was VERY small and located in the middle of nowhere so to have two people with such an unusual name was unlikely. One of them now goes by Toby though.

Solena is pretty.
