In a fit of insomnia, I decided to join this community and dribble off my favorite names:

Girls:

Beatrix Renee
Arianne Renee
Arianne Jeanne

As for me and my siblings, I'm Tracy Jeanne, my sister is Sara Margaret, and my brother is Casey Richard (and no, my mom didn't realize mine and my brother's names rhyme until she had already named him. Personally, I was pushing for Almanzo :: e-cookies to anyone who knows that reference::)

Almanzo? Could it be THE Almanzo of Little House on the Prairie fame?

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

Bingo. Started reading them when I was 7 14 years ago and I never stopped.

[ayanamisama.livejournal.com]

My mom started reading them to me when I was in kindergarten. I must have read the series myself after that at least 20 times. They were my FAVORITE as a little kid.

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

I still read them from time to time, along with Anne of Green Gables series and the Nancy Drew series. And sometimes the Baby-Sitters Club if i'm in the mood for something silly.

haha that's really funny that your mom didn't realize they rhyme. =D

btw nice icon. jersey pride, woot!

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

We call my sister Lacy just so her name will rhyme too.

Gotta have Jersey pride.

lol that's funny. lacey is my dog's name! =D

You mean the Almanzo from the Little House books (Laura Ingalls Wilder), I'm assuming.

Also, I love the name Beatrix; it's classic, it's literary, and it's not that common anymore at all.

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

Yes I do.

I love Beatrix Potter and all her stories.

[fingie.livejournal.com]

I love love love the name Arianne... I used to work for one and she was wonderful.
The nn Trixy for me gets put into the 'Candy, Baby, etc' nn's that remind me of strippers.
Ive known enough Ryan Scotts to last me a life time...
I do like the other boys names though...with the exception of Alexander Scott as Alexander just isnt my style.

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

I think Trixy is cute for like a 5 year old.

I didn't like the name Alexander for a long time but I like the nn Xander...I could never just name my kid Xander though.

I actually know a little girl named Amelia Rose; she's so adorable.

I really do like the classic old names.

[smasharash.livejournal.com]

I'm really confused about how to pronounce Jeanne. Right now I'm thinking it's pronounced Gee-ann?

I like
Elinor Mae
Amelia Rose
Arianne Renee

Oliver James
Evan Michael
Alexander Scott

Beatrix always reminds me of Beatrix Potter, and also I think one of the Queens granddaughters is called Beatrix, so for me it is a bit of a posh/snobby name.

I really like Nathanial.

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

Its pronounced just like Jean...just with 2 extra letters on the end. Its also my mom's middle name so I really want to pass it on to my oldest daughter.


I got Beatrix from Beatrix Potter; I'm a lit major and I want to be a school librarian so I have no problem naming my kid after authors.

[smasharash.livejournal.com]

I want to do that too; my middle name is the same as my mum's, so I want to pass it on.

[anapology.livejournal.com]

She didnt realised they rhymed? lol did your mum have alot of pain meds when he was born!?

I love Amelia Rose & Alexander Scott (even though i prefer Alexander as a middle name, because although it's lovely i know a bazillion Alex's)

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

I think it was the lack of pain medicine that caused her to name him that. She kept saying she loved Casey for a name and no one actually picked up on it until she named him that. It was just so weird.

[thorabrighid.livejournal.com]

Another Elinor lover! ahhaha. I've always loved that name, that spelling. Did you get it from Sense and Sensibility? I really like Mae with it. I think Amelia is cute too! Beatrix is okay, just because I love Beatrix Potter, I have a little bunny (not real haha) named Beatrix. But I really really hate trixy. To stripperish! ahhah.

I lovelovelove Oliver James and Liam Nathaniel. So pretty!

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

Part from Sense and Sensibility, part from a Nancy Drew computer game.

Thanks! I love the name Liam too but unfortuntely there's already someone in my family with that name. However, we don't see them often so I might have to steal it from them.

[littlehounddog.livejournal.com]

I like Amelia Jeanne, and Ryan Scott has a really great ring to it!

[traecrochet.livejournal.com]

Thanks!
