Sounds like a pasta.

[lava-sharks.livejournal.com]

it's a real name.

[harinakshi.livejournal.com]

Not in America, heh;)

Just saying, like the person below me, I've never heard it, never seen it. It might even sound different said in a Russian accent, but to me, I see something on an Olive Garden menu.

!!! My first thought was "sounds like a yummy Italian dish", and that is what I was going to comment with, but you beat me to it.

[starskye.livejournal.com]

yep me too

[solitudete.livejournal.com]

Yeah I thought of pasta too.

[ohhvelocitygirl.livejournal.com]

looks a bit made up to me, but it isn't absolutely awful

[lava-sharks.livejournal.com]

it's a russian name, bb.

[ohhvelocitygirl.livejournal.com]

I didn't say it was, just that it looks made up to my uncultured french-american eye(s).

[lava-sharks.livejournal.com]

you've never seen "anatolia" before? i'm not trying to be a smart ass, but i figured that's what people would be reminded of.

[ohhvelocitygirl.livejournal.com]

never. that looks made up too. but for what it's worth it totally sounds like a pasta dish that I'd eat.

[renishas.livejournal.com]

It sounds like an Italian pasta. I'm not a fan.

[thellamaqueen.livejournal.com]

I think of my dog, who is part Anatolian Shepherd. :P

[cielamara.livejournal.com]

Oh, you!

I actually like the sound of it.

[lava-sharks.livejournal.com]

what about me?

oh, that i'm a baby_names troll? mm, not really.

[cielamara.livejournal.com]

No, I don't think of you as a troll per se. Your posts are amusing, though.

[lava-sharks.livejournal.com]

well that's good

[harinakshi.livejournal.com]

And I must add this name has provided the husband and I with plenty of jokes all day:)

[lava-sharks.livejournal.com]

huh?

[harinakshi.livejournal.com]

"What kind of pasta do you want for dinner? Just fettuccine?"
"Nah, how about anatoli?"

"So I was thinking of roasting pork cutlets and serving it with anatoli and sun dried tomatoes"

"A friend's daughter is named Annalyse"
"Anatoli?"

[cremepuff.livejournal.com]

I sort of like it, actually. I've seen it before, but it was spelled with a Y on the end instead of an I. Sadly, I doubt I could get away with using it--it would look odd with my French surname!

[bright-eyes-jh.livejournal.com]

The Ottoman Empire.

[hwar.livejournal.com]

I have also seen it spelled Anatoly. I think to Americans it would sound extremely Russian, and possibly also a bit feminine. It's not inherently a bad name though.

[ohhvelocitygirl.livejournal.com]

wait. that's supposed to be a boy name?

[hwar.livejournal.com]

Yep. Anatoli/Anatoly is a boy name.

[lorienellen.livejournal.com]

Delicious! The first thing I thought was it reminds me of cannoli.

[lind-saay.livejournal.com]

Sounds like cannoli.

[solagirl.livejournal.com]

Reminds me of aioli. I like the spelling with a y better.

[frost.livejournal.com]

Anatolia came to mind first.
I don't like the way it sounds.

[soph-posh.livejournal.com]

I like Anatole...
