Let's play a game!

Pick 10 boy and 10 girl names that most characterize your style/are your favourites. Others will comment with adjectives that describe your name style/their opinion of it (example: classic, trendy, fantastic, terrible, etc.)

Have at it!

eclectic is a good word
but we match on a few
unique is the word i'll use

[kitchen-poet.livejournal.com]

Nice. I like most, if not all, of your girl's names. Especially Beatrix, Eloise, Felicity, Mathilda, and Sylvia. I'd look at your style as sort of a literary quirkiness, if that makes sense. :)

I am in love with your names (particularly the girls section). Your names seem classy yet simple, and I know many of your favorites are popular names in Britain.

[alba-holly.livejournal.com]

Old fashion. But in a really good way.

[schexyschteve.livejournal.com]

Madeline, Amelia, Elizabeth, Claudia, Juliana, Audrey, Charlotte, Vivian, Ruby & Lilliana.

Benjamin, Julian, Sebastian, Henry, Oliver, Theodore, Evan, Colin, Joel & James.

Hmm...

I'd call it eclectic, semi-classic, historical and literary.

*scrunchy face*

I got there first. :p

[sunsetsinthewes.livejournal.com]

YOU FORGOT DELTA.

[subluxate]

Haha, so do my partner and I. We're planning to use three of the boy names and four of the girl ones in various ways.

[subluxate]

It's not one of my favorites. I like it; it's just not one of my top ten. Same with Lorraine and Gary.

[subluxate]

Lovely and old-fashioned. I especially love Caroline, Charlotte, and Abigail (out of the ones where we don't overlap).

[subluxate]

Classic.

[sunsetsinthewes.livejournal.com]

Oh I am so telling our daughter that you don't like her name.

*duck*

[nothingtolose19.livejournal.com]

Hmmm.. let's see:

Alexandra
Amarantha
Layla
Lucia/Lucy
Katherine
Evelyn
Willow
Lena
Gwendolyn or Guinevere (I LOVE Guinevere, but all I can think of is olden days lol. I can't see a normal little girl being named Guinevere).
Tabitha

^ These are just names out of a whole bunch that I like. And honestly, Gwendolyn just popped into my head haha.

Now, for boys, this will be harder (and probably different from the ones I posted the other day):

Benjamin
Nathaniel
James
Tobias
Jonas
Samuel
Thomas
Damian
Lucas
Henry

[schexyschteve.livejournal.com]

Classic with an Irish-esque flavor.

[babyjess8.livejournal.com]

Your boys names are great! Most to me are classic, timeless
The girls are an odd assortment of classic, modern and popular.

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

Quirky, old fashioned
