Daydreaming and Spanish Names
Oct. 10th, 2010 03:21 amHi everyone!
I spent the day with my extended family and played with babies the whole time. I couldn't help but let my mind wander to the time when I will bring my own kid(s) to family gatherings.
I'm (hopefully/ likely/ planning on) moving back to Spain in 11 months, and I'd like to stay there for good this time. This obviously makes me realize that English names are a no-go for my kids if I end up marrying and becoming a mother there.
I've had a Spanish list for a few years already but just added a few and took a few off. I have Catalan and Basque lists as well 'just in case' (does that make me sound crazy?), and a couple Galician names I like.
WDYT of these (the child would hopefully be living in Spain, with his Canadian-by-birth mother and his likely-Spanish father):
Álvaro
Feliciano "Feli"
Gonzalo "Gonza"
Javier "Javi"
Julián
Leopoldo "Leo"
Sebastián "Sebas"
Thanks very much!
