[identity profile] nothingtolose19.livejournal.com posting in [community profile] babynames
One of the girls I work with just found out she is pregnant. She told me today the names she has picked out: Nathaniel Graham William and Elizabeth Roseann Dawn. She told me that all the boy names are family names on her boyfriend's side, and so is Elizabeth. Roseann is the middle name of the baby's godmother, and Dawn is for her good friend. WDYT? Also, name heard on tv: Pierrette. I don't really care for it; sounds like pirouette everytime I hear it. By the way, I'm very sorry if this is a hard-to-read wall of text; I'm typing this on my cell so it's hard to make it look good lol.

i love love the boys name, nathaniel isn't really my style, and neither is William, but Graham is prob one of my favorite lately. and i like Nathan, and they flow well. i think Elizabeth is becoming over used, i can't stand Roseann and i have a bad conotation with Dawn.

Roseann is horrible, but I'm sure that's a personal preference sort of thing, other then that, the names are nice, normal, and they're all namesakes which is nice:)

Not feeling the am and am. It doesn't sound right.

Nathaniel Graham William is freaking awesome. I'm not a huge fan of Nathaniel, but I LOVE Graham and William and they all go together well. I love Elizabeth, but I dislike Roseann and Dawn, so that name doesn't really excite me.

Pierrette is kind of lame. And I agree, it does sound too close to pirouette.

Nathaniel is my #1 boys name.
I am not a fan of more than one middle name, but I realize that this is a tradition in some parts of the country/ world and in some families, so there's nothing wrong with it- I just would not do it.

I love Elizabeth- Classic- BUT I have a bad association with it and could NEVER use it because Elizabeth is my husband's ex wife. Shame, since it's a good middle name for almost anything, and it was also my grandmother's middle name.
Not fond of Roseann or Dawn, but there's nothing wrong with them.
Graham and William are okay.
overall, not bad names, but I am not a fan of any of them except Nathaniel, and not really a fan of them together like that. I'd prefer just Nathaniel William. Or Elizabeth something else. But hey, it's not my kid ;)

I really like the boy name, but not the girl.

I love Nathaniel. William is okay. Not a fan of Graham; all I can see is graham crackers. But as a mn I can deal with it.

I love Elizabeth (though I may be a little biased there--it's my name!). Dawn is nice, at least as a middle. Roseann does make me think of the hideous Roseanne Barr, which is a shame because it's a lovely name. I can deal with it as a middle.

Pierrette is a fairly common French name. I know several women (40s-50s) named Pierrette.
