I know you suggested Lion in jest, but...



(...Yes, you can pelt me with rocks now.)

[tallc00lone.livejournal.com]

*pelts you with rocks*

[krosp.livejournal.com]

Leo/Leonard has the same meaning... so I guess it's no different from calling them that, although I think they're more 'acceptable'

[bloomingtulip.livejournal.com]

Love Penelope and Nora, Mason and Ezra and Micah. I like Channing for a girl myself.

Just a random note- Mary doesn't really fit to me with your other bolded girl names- just something to think about if you are think of sibling names.

[maude.livejournal.com]

I like Channing for a girl too, but the first (and only) person named Channing I've met is a boy, so it'll probably stay on my boy's list.

And your comment about Mary makes sense, but I really hate the idea of sibling sets...plus if ever used it, it would probably be as a middle name. :)

[bloomingtulip.livejournal.com]

I don't think about sibling sets either so I understand that. Just a general thought that you wouldn't (well I wouldn't lol) want to have one daughter feel like she got the "boring" name, ya know?

MN is good :)

Overall you have good taste, although I'm not too fond of some of the girls names - Theodora, Nora, Thora... ick. I don't think I like the 'ora' sound lol.

[x-lostinyou.livejournal.com]

I don't know if it matters to you at all, but Cecilia means 'blind'.

I don't really hate anything, but I don't really like anything either. I'm neutral.

[maude.livejournal.com]

I know that, but it doesn't make a difference to me. To me, name meanings are completely void of meaning and most of the time made-up.

[x-lostinyou.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I don't worry too much about them either... but some people can be touchy, so I thought I'd make sure you knew! =)

[elemmennope.livejournal.com]

Tatum - nms but ok. makes me think of 'taters.
Isabelle - sick of it. frilly ruffles and lace. nmsaa.

Jónsi - eh

[maude.livejournal.com]

I understand the Thora Birch connection (and yeah I like her, but that's not why I like the name) but what is the Demi Moore/Tallulah connection?

[anapology.livejournal.com]

I love Cecilia, and Cecily/Cicily.
Maude is really really ugly to me.
I love Isabelle, over Isabel anyday. :-)
