Date: 2006-10-19 05:06 pm (UTC)Ayla - Same.
Alana - Never liked this name, possibly because all the girls I knew with this name were brats.
Bree - I like as a nickname for Gabrielle, but don't think it stands well on its own.
Calista - I've always liked this, very pretty.
Dorothy (Dora for short) - Never liked Dorothy.
Juliana - I like "Julianna" better. How would you pronounce this?
Lydia - Eh.
Mara - Pretty
Nayeli (means I love you in Zapotec, according to btn!) - I like the sound of it, but wouldn't use it.
Nina - Don't like it
Quinn - I've watched too much Daria, thus I kind of hate it ;)
Samantha - Love this name, always have, no matter how popular it gets.
Abraham - I like it but would never use it.
Bennett - Love it.
Brent - I like it, but more for a middle name.
Gabriel - Love it.
Griffin - Like it a lot.
Ishmael - I love it but would never use it for a human child.
Kelso - I like the name, but hate the associations I have with it.
Matthias - Love it.
Solomon - I know a girl who changed her name to this. It sounds like an old man's name to me, but I don't hate it.
Tate (what is this a nn for?) - Don't like it, always sounds like a Jesus-is-an-excuse-to-be-an-asshole, beer-drinking, football-playing jackass to me. And no, I don't know why. Don't know what it could be a nickname for, either.

And Jesus is no excuse to be an a*hole. :/
