I stumbled across this community yesterday and, after scrolling through some of the posts, I thought I'd share a few of my favorite names. Bolded are the names I plan on using for my children someday.

Boys : Fox, Rhys, Holden, Theo (pronounced Tay-oh), Callum, Naoise, Eamon, and Dresden.

Girls : Peter Rene, October Jude, Clemence, Margot, Saoirse, Eira, Emory, Joss, and Maude.

Thoughts?  And any good opinions on middle names for Fox and/or Callum?

I hate, hate, hate the name Theo--but I had never considered the French pronunciation. I actually like it quite a bit that way. Was the French movie you got it from The Dreamers? Just curious.

Holden and Rhys are at the top of my name list (although I'd probably use Reece, personally), and I love Margot and Eira.

Peter on a girl makes me think of an L.M. Montgomery story, "The Quarantine at Alexander Abraham's." "If I had been a boy my parents intended to call me Peter in honour of a rich uncle. When I–-fortunately–-turned out to be a girl my mother insisted that I should be called Angelina. They gave me both names and called me Angelina, but as soon as I grew old enough I decided to be called Peter. It was bad enough, but not so bad as Angelina." At the end of the story, after Peter is proposed to, her fiancé tells her that he refuses to call her Peter now, and he'll always call her Angelina after this.

Anyway...hello! Welcome.

It wasn't The Dreamers though I love that movie. Louis Garrel is amazing.

That story sounds really interesting. I'm gonna have to check that out. And hello to you too!
