A list of names!
Aug. 29th, 2006 10:11 amHey, all. I've been compiling names over the past couple weeks, merely because I'm obsessed with names. I'm not pregnant or looking to be, lol. That's about ten years into the future. I just wanted to know what you all think about the following names. I've provided some pronunciation keys for the ones that are a bit difficult to pronounce on their own. I'd like it if you could break the names into different lists based on your preference.
I realize some are bit weird. If you think certain ones are too weird, let me know. A lot I got out of fantasy novels and classic literature, so they will be a bit odd to us.
Girls:
Arden
Belle
Bronwen
Charisse (Shuh-REESE)
Elizabeth
Elle
Emma
Gemma
Grace
Imogen (IMMO-jen)
Jade
Jasmine
Leila (LAY-luh)
Lily
Lisette (Lee-SET)
Myrna (MEER-nuh)
Pippa
Rosalind
Rose
Victoria
Boys:
Aidan
Caspian
Corin
Damien
Hayden
James
Jude
Julian
Landon
Lennon
Roland
Ronan
Sebastian
William
Thanks!

Gemma -pleasing to the ear
Leila -fond of L & A combos
Myrna -I like how it sounds but seeing it, I would first pronounce it like My-er-na. my screwy brain
Boys:
Lennon -Cmon! John Lennon love!
Hayden -Don't know why but I like it
Ronan -sounds strong in a good way
(in general I have a harder time finding boy names I like)
