So i am only bringing this name up because it has been said before and wasnt completely trashed right away. I am usually against the place name thing for babies, but for some reason this one has stuck with me and i think its adorable.

Thoughts, opinions, comments, ideas etc welcomed, (keep in mind, im not having babies any time soon and i am not planning to name a baby this, i just think it sounds interesting)

Tennessee

Do you think there are too many letters? Would the kid constantly get asked the pick up line..."are you from Tennessee, cause you're the only ten i see?"

things to think about :)


**EDIT** Tennessee Elizabeth has just been added to my list of favorite baby names :)

not trying to be mean, but Georgia and Sydney as names were around before Georgia and Sydney as places?

im just confused by that.

Yes, of course.

The name Georgia is the feminine version of George. It's been a name for a lot longer than the state has existed.

Sydney is a surname often used as a first name (var. Sidney). The Australian city is named after someone called Sydney.

A lot of the colonies in America were named after monarchs of England. So Carolina is based on the Latin for Charles (which is Carolus, I think), Virginia is for Elizabeth I (the Virgin Queen), Maryland is for Mary II (I think), and Georgia is from the Latin for George.
