I was on the train home today, and there were two beautiful, articulate and polite children with their grandmother. Seriously the nicest kids, I couldn't get over it! The girl told her grandmother that she really appreciated how much she'd been doing for them lately - which is fair enough for an older child - but the girl must have only been about 7 or 8.

Aaaaanyway, I overheard her name as Lily, which I'm kind of indifferent about (I find it awkward to say), but her little brother's name was Raphael. I'm kinda agonising about whether I should add it to my names list or not! I really don't like how it looks written, but then again I really really like how it sounds!

WDYT?

I actually had to google 'Raphael the turtle' haha. I never watched TMNT, the only association with Raphael I had was the artist!
(wikipedia just told me that Raphael the turtle WAS in fact named after the artist.)

I do like the spelling Rafael just as much, if not more - but I'd feel funny using it unless I was living in Spain or something.
