But we names the dog Indiana! :)

Sounds like someone is a Harry P fan. But it's supposed to be "Nymphadora"...did she leave out the "m" on purpose or was that just a mistake?

Either way.....I wouldn't name a baby Nymphadora. Or Regulus. Or any of those except Lily, Catherine, or Nathaniel.

Even Arthur is pushing it unless it's a family name. But it's not as "out there".

I can just imagine little Xiomara learning to write her name in first grade and crying because none of it makes sense!

She didn't even spell Ginevra right.

I really like Minerva and Ginevra. The others I don't think so. Except maybe Catherine.

[a-purple-dream.livejournal.com]

I like Minerva and Xiomara

[babyhoyt.livejournal.com]

ok, it jsut can't be arthur wesley!! All her name choices are Harry Potter (except for Indiana).. Arthur WEaSLEY????? although, it would be excellently secretly funny.

[magcnurserybaby.livejournal.com]

Hahaha Harry Potter names, how funny.

[heyitsrebecca.livejournal.com]

Well.. at least Catherine, Lily, and Nathaniel are nice. Maybe she'll come to her senses. :sigh:

[ifancylust.livejournal.com]

heh. i know absolutely nothing about harry potter..not my cup of tea.

[babyhoyt.livejournal.com]

Arthur Wesley is a very nice name. just not good since the arthur weasley character, and especially not since this baby-naming chick is alll about the HP reference. if you knew harry potter, you would be laughing a little bit... after you threw up from the cheesiness of it!

[thejoysofjess.livejournal.com]

I was just thinking that same thing.

[tinylittlestars.livejournal.com]

Sounds like someone is a Harry Potter fan...

[last-summer.livejournal.com]

I like Nathaniel...haha. And I'm starting to like Indiana a little, Casey Affleck's son is named that. But the HP names are all really funny, hopefully her kid doesn't get stuck named Nymphadora or Xiomara, haha.

[desert-vixen.livejournal.com]

You're not the only one thinking that.

J.K. Rowling, what have you done?

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

Harry Potter fan by chance? *giggle* she needs a life outside of Teh books (like i should talk...*buries nose*)

[lizziey.livejournal.com]

my FIL is arthur!! i HATE that name!

[opalfirefly.livejournal.com]

its funny b/c when i posted this... i had no idea they were Harry Potter names...
I never read them and dont watch the movies...

[krosp.livejournal.com]

I can't remember a Catherine in Harry Potter.... who was she?

[cathkitten.livejournal.com]

Bellatrix: pretty, but I dont' think anyone should name their child that.
Catherine: beautiful! It's my name and I love it. I go by Cathy.
Ginerva: Geneva or Minerva, make up your mind!
Lily: beautiful.
Minerva: I love this.
Nyphadora: no way
Xiomara: no way
Arthur: like it a lot
Nathaniel: like it OK. not my style but a good name.
Regulus: sounds like the drug Reglan which you take to stop vomiting. NO.
Indiana: NO

[katie-oo7.livejournal.com]

I love that there are really traditional names mixed in with Xiomara. I actually like Indiana. It's a little out there, but I think it could be really cute.

[babyhoyt.livejournal.com]

oh, tru dat. I can't remember one. I do know of a wonderfully awesome reader named Katharine. hem hem. don't know WHO that is though :D

[anapology.livejournal.com]

Are you naming all the cool names in Harry Potter?
hehehe. I've counted 6/11...

[ciara-belle.livejournal.com]

She needs to put down the Harry Potter books ASAP. Seriously.

Although Catherine, Lily, Arthur and Nathaniel are perfectly nice names. Ginevra possibly, if she wants something Italian.

[darabelle.livejournal.com]

My favorite from the list above is absolutely Catherine. I think it goes with a lot of things (including last names), it's classic, French, and, I don't know, I just get a good feeling from it.

WAIT WAIT WAIT

SHE FORGOT MOANING MYRTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
