A name idea

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Hello all!

I am nowhere near having kids, but I think about names all the time, and love them. So I was thinking about boys' names, since I generally don't care much for them; my real passion lies in girls' names.

I finally had an idea for one I really love! Love passionately enough to give.


I threw it out there for a few family members' and friends' opinions (they liked it, surprisingly) but I was wondering what a bunch of strangers thought of using the name Everest for a boy.


I'm a huge Mt. Everest enthusiast/fan, and I think it's a good, strong word/name. It's not as "crazy" as some of the place/thing names out there. I just really love it, and it has personal meaning.

If I have girls, they'd be Lorraine Helena and Margaret Diane - Lorraine first. (Those middle names are up for debate, but that's kind of irrelevant for now, in this context.) So a boy-girl sibset would be Lorraine and Everest.


I'd love to get your opinions, though! Yea or nay? (Also - middle name ideas? I keep joking that Himalaya would be a good one, but I am so so joking. LOL)
