You like Rose, Rosalind and Rosaline, but not Rosalie, MY name! :D

I LOVE the following:
Arianna (ah-ree-ah-nuh)
Elinor
Isabelle (but I prefer Isabel)

Ethan
Jonah
Malachy (if this is meant to be Malachi, I hate it and think Malachi is much better and more obvious. If it's the Irish (muh-LACH-ee), I like it.)
Noah
Oliver

I'm sorry! Rosalie is a lovely name, too!

It is the Irish name! I've never even heard of Malachi, it's not common in Australia at all- though I pronounce Malachy Mal-a-kee as that's how I've always heard it. I love how similar it sounds to malarkey.

[mrsduryee.livejournal.com]

More and more Malachy grows on me. I have very little Irish in me though, and it would be weird to me.

Thanks for the compliment!

I used to love, love, love Tatiana and Titania. They are no longer my favorites but I still like them.

Delilah is one of my favorite names, mostly because I like the nickname Del and because of the Tiger & Del books.

[howdroll.livejournal.com]

I was just looking up name meanings and it really freaked me out that Titania means giant, Titans/Titania- strange hey?

I just love how Delilah slips off the tongue Dee-lyyy-luuuh, it's so pretty!

[lostrocket.livejournal.com]

I liked Titania via Shakespeare. When I was making up families in my head, I often included twins named Titania and Tatiana. I think that's kind of wrong, now that I am older and wiser, but they are still lovely names.

[howdroll.livejournal.com]

That is why I love Titania, too
I just thought it was crazy that fairy queen= giant.

Oh I don't know, you could always call them Titty and Tatty and get them their own tv show or something:p.

[lostrocket.livejournal.com]

It would be even worse than that Faith & Hope show. But we could make lots of tit for tat jokes!

[coconutchica.livejournal.com]

I love:

Adela
Adèle (this is on my list also!!)
Aurora (so pretty...any ideas of nn's?)
Charlotte (I think I may add this one)
Isabelle (also on my list!)
Marianne
Tatiana

Grace
Iris
Marie
Violet

[howdroll.livejournal.com]

You like most of my real favourites!

I like Rory as a nickname for Aurora, or even Rora. I just found the name Aurore which is cute, as well.

Charlotte is my absolute favourite girl's name, I love Charlie for a nick name for it.

Violet, Iris, and Alice are too gorgeous to be in the middle name slot. ;)

I'm not a big fan of most of those names, but if you like it that's fine with me. But I do love Charlotte, Grace, Violet, and Rose. Gabriel is the name of my great-grandfather. And I was named after him and we used the femine verison of his name Gabrielle (my parents pronounced it GAY-BREE-ELLE but I prounounce it GA-BREE-ELLE)

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Really great list! And welcome!

[twoheadedboi.livejournal.com]

I wish Eleanor was pronounced the same way it is in the USA here. In the UK it's pronounced ell-en-uh. But I like the more prounounced ell-en-or much much better.
