i read Denali several times before I realized it wasn't a different spelling of Delaney :-S

I don't like either, either ;)

Soooo weird to see Denali! When I was in the 4th grade, I named one of my porcelain dolls Denali because we were learning about Alaska in school and I really liked the sound of it. I also liked McKinley, Juneau, and Sitka at the time.

Is Latham pronounced Lay-thum?

I'm...not as repulsed by these names as I thought I would be (or perhaps should be). They're kind of neat.

lol. I have no idea how Latham is pronounced. It was a halloween card of a cute baby with a pumpkin and it said "Happy Halloween! Love, Latham.

I read Denali like a Yukon Denali (http://www.gmc.com/denali/index.jsp).

And I think it's trashy to name your child after cars.

I imagine it's far more likely the child was named after the same thing the car was, rather than the child being named after the car.

This.

Maybe the kid was conceived in the back of a Denali?? Be glad it wasn't a Pinto I guess?

I used to live in Alaska and there were always people who would name their daughters Denali or McKinley. I never liked either of them.

Latham is a real, live name, even if it's not common. Denali I would have to get used to. I'd more see it on a boy. Naming a girl after a mountain skeeves me out in many ways. I really think it's more appropriate for pets.

I love Latham! Denali makes me think of the car... so not a fan.

I actually quite like Denali. It's pretty.
