What do you think of Zebulon, Ira, and Job, Linnea and Sunny?
For some reason I almost exclusively like Biblical/Hebrew names for boys. It's starting to weird me out.

Zebulon reminds me too much of "Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century" for me to take seriously. Ira is nice. Job isn't a name I'd bestow upon some poor boy. Linnea is too girly; Sunny I don't find appropriate on anyone except for hippy children or Indians (excuse the stereotype).

I guess they're not bad names, but I don't really care for any of them. Sorry. :\

Zebulon looks very sci-fi to me. Ira and Job are alright, if not my style. Linnea is really pretty, and Sunny is again ok but not my style.

None of these are my style. . .

I LOVE Ira, but I think I'm going to use it as a middle name =).

Job is not unusual here (The Netherlands), but I'm not a fan...and the rest is really not my style.

Oh man, I <3 Zebulon! A friend of mine had a baby and had planned to name him Ezekiel Zebulon, but her family talked her out of it and into using the "tame" version of Ezekiel Elijah. I totally prefer Zebulon. :)

And I like the name Job, but I hate the biblical story and connotations that come with the name.

Along biblical lines, I also like Gideon, Ezra, Levi, Benjamin, Reuben, Simon, Abel, Amos, Zimri, Malachi, and Esau. :)

I love Ira!

Personally though, I would prefer Linnea on a girl. I really like the name though!

I like Linnea, but only for a girl.

Zebulon is actually one of my guilty pleasures, mostly because I like the nickname Zeb. Ira is very nice.

As for the girl's names, I really like Linnea, and I like Sunny, but I see Sunny as more of a nickname for something else.

I really love Sunny for a girl, I also love Sonny for a boy but people go for the Sonny and Cher reference.

I love love love Zebulon, Zeb is a really cute nick name that will work no matter how old he is.

I love Hebrew names too, a lot of the people in my family have Hewbrew names, which annoys me because I'd like to use them.

I love Linnea, and Sunny as a nn. I'm not really a fan of the rest.
