I really, really like Julienne.

It just makes me thinking of the cutting technique.

I love the name Annika/Anika!

Suggestions for Jordan...do you want to keep the first name of Jordan and just change the middle? I know someone named Jordan Thomas, so maybe that could be an option. I suppose it's a little dull, but it's a thought.

I love the name Annika/anika too! Anika's been my online for 8 1/2 years! I saw it in a baby book and fell inlove with it, then I decided to just go by my real name earlier this year, which is Amy, and reserve Anika for stories and perhaps one day a kid.

I do like the name Jordan and Jordan Thomas sounds good. I'll think on it. *thinking thinking thinking...* hmmm give me more options please with middle names?

Agatha sounds very old-fashioned for the mom--unless it fits her character's family history well enough.
