Well, I've totally revamped my name list! I want opinions, but I always feel a little weird posting my list here when I'm not expecting or anything, so I thought we could make a game of it. We did this before and I thought it went pretty well.

Post your favorites in the comments (I'd say 5 girls and 5 boys, but I know a lot of people have less than that or can't narrow it down that far, so whatever works for you). Then, you must comment on 3 other peoples' name lists. You can comment about the flow of the names, whether or not you like them, suggest other names they may like, or really you can just write whatever you want! If you are one of the first three to comment with your name list, then wait awhile and then come back to do your replies when there are more.

I know this is a community for naming and we all may as well make our own posts about names and get advice from that, but maybe other people feel strange posting their lists like I do, so this could be fun and productive!

Oliver Gabriel
Calvin/Callum/Colin Jeremiah -I can't decide! Help?
Miles Nicholas
Samuel Arthur (Sam)
Thomas Henry

Catherine Susannah (Cat/Cate/Catya maybe)
Juliet Victoria
Elizabeth Charlotte (Ellie/Lizzie/Eliza, can't decide)
Ivy Caroline
Jane Margaret (Janie, maybe)- this one seems a little plain to me, and the flow seems a little off, but I can't find a name I love as much as the others. Any suggestions?

(all of those except for Sam and Max are inspired my our dads or grandfathers.)

Our last name is 2 syllables, very French, and ends with a "ce" sound.

I like Colin best. I like all of your first names but the only middle name I like is Henry. LOVE Henry!

I prefer Catherine with a K...but could be because that's my name. I go by Kate so naturally I think it's the best nickname EVER! :)

[lovetokate.livejournal.com]

Not crazy about Parker Bentley at all. It doesn't seem to "fit" with the rest of your boy names. The rest are nice, though!

I love Lucy Mae! The double LL's in Callie Noelle looks strange to me written out...but if I just heard the name I wouldn't think of it.

[ruffledress.livejournal.com]

I like Colin Jeremiah the best, but I like Calvin Jeremiah, too.

I like all of your boy names and all of the girl names except Ivy. I especially like Oliver Gabriel, Miles Nicholas, Juliet Victoria, and Catherine Susannah.

Harrison Elias
Elliott Tobias
Elton Maxwell
Robert Ellis
Myles Elliott


Lennon Cecile
Marly Jane
Abigail Justice
Charlotte Avery
Carrie Elisabeth

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

I like all of these names! Especially the girl's first names and Samuel Leo and Max Anthony.

The only thing I'd suggest is to avoid John Thomas, as it's a slang term for penis, haha.

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

I like:
Elliott Tobias
Miles Elliott (but not Myles)
Abigail
Carrie Elisabeth

I don't like Lennon or Marly as first names, especially on girls, and I don't like Elton, either, but I don't mind Robert Ellis or Harrison Elias.

[kitchen-poet.livejournal.com]

I love Calvin the best. Colin is a close second, but Calvin is just so unusal and classic sounding. :)

[kitchen-poet.livejournal.com]

Nice. I really like Elliott Tobias. Elliot would be on my top list if my husband didn't hate it so much! And Tobias is one of my very favorites. Also, I like Myles Elliott and Ellis, but not Robert so much.

Strangely, I like Abigail Justice. It reminds me of a Puritan name, and I normally hate Abigail. :)

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

Oh, also: I'm tossing around these five, too. They're a different style, so I'm not sure which group I like best.

Samuel Michael Ryan (Sam)
Nathan Carver Delano (Nate)
Henry Aaron Peter (Hank)
William Richard Lee (Will)
Charles Robert Emerson (Charlie)

Margaret Adrienne Barbara (Meg)
Eleanor Lily Vonda (Ellie)
Louisa Janet Anne (Lia)
Anneliese Erin Leigh (Annie)
Harriet Allison Rose (Etta)

[kitchen-poet.livejournal.com]

Nora Jane (I love Nora/Norah on its own, but also as a nn for Eleanor)
June Mathilde
Alice Paige
Margot Anne
Etta Katherine

Guy Nicholas or Nicholas Guy
Ezra Irving
Benjamin Cary
Tobias Jack
Henry Dean

Alice, Nicholas, Katherine, Cary, Irving, Jack, Jane, and Paige are all family names. :)

Theodore Etienne
Solomon Nikolai
Dorian Anders
Soren Isaiah
Silas Micah

Adeline Niamh
Amelie Clothilde
Naomi Devon
Annik Frances
Kate Sarai

I'm open to like, mixing middle names around and stuff too. I'm not at all set on them.

[la-jolie-vie.livejournal.com]

Every male in my fiancee's family for the past several generations has had Elliott as a first or middle name, so we have to name at least one of our future sons Elliott.

[moshimoshi-13.livejournal.com]

I love most of your names.

I LOVE:

Margot Anne
Alice Paige
Etta Katherine
Ezra Irving (very writerly)
Tobias Jack

I'm not the biggest fan of Nora or June, but love both middle names, and I think they both work well. I'm not a huge fan of Benjamin or Henry either, but once again I think that they work well with the middle names.

I think Nicholas Guy works better.

[moshimoshi-13.livejournal.com]

LOVE:

Oliver Gabriel
Miles Nicholas
Elizabeth Charlotte
Jane Margaret

Out of Calvin/Callum/Colin I like Callum the best, but I think Calvin is really neat too.

I've never liked Samuel, Arthur or Henry, but there's nothing WRONG with them. I like Thomas.

I like Cate as a nn for Catherine best, and Ellie as a nn for Elizabeth best.

[lovetokate.livejournal.com]

hahaha....this I know! It's also my dad's name.

(We secretly call him Penis sometimes....we're a sick sick family.) lmao!

[moshimoshi-13.livejournal.com]

Harrison Elias - I don't like Harrison, but I love Elias.
Elliott Tobias - Huge fan of both of them.
Elton Maxwell - I like, but don't LOVE.
Robert Ellis - Robert is a little boring to me, but I like Ellis as a middle name.
Myles Elliott - Haha, both names or people I've dated/am dating, so a little weird for me, but I love both names. My favourite of your boys names.

Lennon Cecile - I'm not sure, but I think I like.
Marly Jane - I prefer Marley, but I do like this name.
Abigail Justice - I love Abigail but not a fan of Justice.
Charlotte Avery - I like this a lot. Would you have a nickname for Charlotte?
Carrie Elisabeth - I hate Carrie, but Elisabeth is good.

[tryyingtoevolve.livejournal.com]

Hahahahaha, that's hilarious.

[xx-imagination.livejournal.com]

- Kendall/Kalina/Kellina Marie nn. Kelly/Kali I want this to follow a family trend of K. Marie but can't settle on a K name yet!
- Lucille Nicole/Amelie nn. Lucy the middle names here are after my best friends
- Isabelle Rae/Claudia nn. Belle
- Annaliese, Jocelyn, Anastasia, Marilyn other names I like but haven't come up with any good middles yet

- Zachary James nn. Zach favorite name ever!
- Nathan Edward/Oliver nn. Nate
- Geoffrey Peter nn. Geoff Nathan and Geoffrey are both for important musicians
- Benjamin Tyler
- Nicholas never came up with a good middle

[xx-imagination.livejournal.com]

You really like El- names for boys, haha! I like Elliot, Miles(with an i), and Maxwell.

I love Charlotte, but Avery always makes me think of the mean older brother from Charlotte's web ... especially when paired together. I also love Elisabeth spelled that way, Abigail, and Cecile.
