I was talking with some family friends this weekend who are having children in the near future. Their picks (I am not 100% sure of the spelling):

Julia Ann
Cadence Elizabeth
Dante (with an accent on the e) Charles
Ezekiel (I forgot the middle name)

I love Julia so I'm a little disappointed that it's on their list, because I wouldn't use it if they did. But none of the others are my style, so I'm kind of relieved.

My first and middle names are Julia Ann! It's a good name. :)

I don't like any of those names particularly. Julia's nice, but I don't like it with Ann & I prefer Charles as a first name, not middle.

At least none of them are horrible. But none of them are spectacular, either.

Isn't it lucky to have your family members like different names than you? My SIL and I have way different styles, so I'm not ever in danger of her liking one of my names. (Although I am in danger of having a niece or nephew with a name I really dislike. D:)

For some reason its very hard for me to say Julia Ann. My tongue doesn't like it. It flows out like "Julie-anne", if I stop and pronounce it JULIA ANN its kinda hard!

The sister of the friend in this post really hates Dante. She insists that she will call him "Don," which I don't think they are very happy about.

They're all okay. Putting the stress n the e in Dante makes me twitch.
