Hey all! I've been lurking for a while and decided to finally join. My name is Theodora, I'm 17, definitely not pregnant but I do love names. :)

I've been keeping note of some uncommon names I've seen lately:

Girls
Aislinn
Ava
Alaina
Sierra
Maude
Ilyse
Whitley
Natausha
Ty

Boys
Tycho (Tie-koh)
Channing
Dimitri
Matei (Muh-Tay)
Ari
Arthur
Keegan
Jaco (Jake-o)

Opinions?

Girls
Aislinn - kind of like it. For a really unique name I like it.
Ava - not that unique (ahem Reese Witherspoon). I LOVE it.
Alaina - Love the spelling.
Sierra - nms
Maude - blech
Ilyse - I like Elise, because of Fur Elise. Can't change the spelling from Beethoven's version!
Whitley - ew
Natausha - ew
Ty - boring ex bf of mine. Lol. I hate guys names gone girly.

Boys
Tycho (Tie-koh) - sounds like a toy company
Channing - I like it!
Dimitri - Love it. But I'm Greek. So I would.
Matei (Muh-Tay) - Hmm. That would grow on me.
Ari - GIRLY! As is short-for-super-femenine Ariana!
Arthur - I likes. Classic.
Keegan - Love it. Very celeb.
Jaco (Jake-o) - no way. Unless his name is Jake and he's between the ages of 2 and 10.

Ari/Arieh/Aryeh is actually a biblical name (mostly used in the Jewish community), so it's definitely not short for Ariana. :)
