Comments

I dislike Celia because it reminds me of celiac desiease. I like Clara very much.
I LOVE Angus and quite like Fergus, but hate the nickname Gus.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Lol, I guess I just dont have that predisposition to Celia, but I sure as hell cant think of a MN for it!!

Im loving Fergus right now, but I think if we dont give a nickname (always call him Fergus) most people would eventually understand that Gus is a horrible nickname, lol.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Celia - Not bad. Makes me think of Monsters, Inc.

Clara - Makes me think of a cow.


Angus - Beef.
Fergus - A stupid hang-around type guy in an old west town

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Two out of four makes you think of beef? Hahahaha, ok.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

Angus definitely. Maybe the -gus on Fergus gets me there too. I don't know, maybe I'm hungry, lol!

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, all that makes me think of is, "DONT NAME BABIES WHEN YOUR HUNGRY!!"

Maybe thats where all those horrible fruit names come into play....Apple and Peaches, lmao.

[sarahrose.livejournal.com]

LOL Peaches is funny. Apple is okay to me. It depends on the day, honestly. Some days I go, "Wow, that's an odd, odd, baby name. What the hell?" and some days I don't think it's that bad.


LOL That's a good motto, though! LOL!

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

I can understand; Apple can sometimes be an approriate "new age" sort of name. But Peaches...or what was the other one.....Trixabelle? Holy crap, famous people come up with the weirdest stuff, lmao.

[anapology.livejournal.com]

Peaches, Fifi Trixibelle, Little Pixie, Tiger Lily lol i think that's right, there are some more weird middle names in there somewhere i think.

Peaches isn't THAT weird to me because i know a girl called Peach, well her name is really Lucy Peach but she never goes by Lucy.. odd.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Okay, that is odd. Id totally prefer to go by Lucy than Peach any day. Otherwise, I sort of think of Super Mario Brothers hahaha.

[calixbat.livejournal.com]

Clara.. but maybe because my aunt is named Clari?

I like Angus only because it reminds me of a singer named Angu. ha
I much prefer Ferguson to Fergus.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

We like Clara, but does it sound stupid for me to say its popular if its number like...240-something on the SS names list? We've got a list of names and just throwing stuff around right now.

[calixbat.livejournal.com]

I dont think its stupid. Personally I dont think that is really popular. I try and stay away from popular names but THomas and Lily are on my list just becuase I love them to much, so obviously popularity isnt that big of issue with me.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

I def try to stay away from "popular" names. Even those classics like John and Michael, because even though theyre classics, theyre still overused. Im a HUGE fan of the name Lillian, btw and I think Lilly is such a cute nickname.

[mrsduryee.livejournal.com]

I love Clara because of the Nutcracker.

I dislike both those names but don't mind Ferguson.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

I think Ferguson wouldnt work so well with our last name; Toomey. Itd be like having two last names instead of one, ya know? And I suppose Im rolling the R moreso than others, which makes me like it. If that makes any sense at all ack.

[museofmyself.livejournal.com]

Celia is a beautiful name, I love it. :)

I don't care for Clara, Angus or Fergus. Sorry.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

I do love Celia more than Clara, I think.

[trissyd.livejournal.com]

Celia? or Clara? - Celia please :)

& Angus reminds me of cattle
& Fergus sounds like "fungus"
so both of those are a NO for me.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Lmao, yeah the boys names are kind of out there (and seemingly fungy/beef related). I guess Im trying to find more masculine names that Im finding.

[muliebrity.livejournal.com]

Celia is just okay. I love Clara.
As for the other two? No, and oh HELL no.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, it was worth a shot!

[oh-so-sweet2me.livejournal.com]

Celia..

I dont like Angus or Fergus at all...sorry

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Im feeling that Celia is a much nicer name the more I say it.

[maude.livejournal.com]

I love Clara, and dislike Celia because of the above-mentioned celiac disease - maybe Cecilia could be an alternative to Celia?

Angus I sorta like, but it honestly couldn't work on a child today. Fergus is kind of icky.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Cecelia has too many syllables, which is why I wasnt crazy about it. With the last name Toomey, 2 syllables usually sounds better than 3 Im finding.

[in-the-starlite.livejournal.com]

Angus and Fergus remind me too much of Fungus.

I prefer Celia over Clara, because I like the soft C as opposed to the hard C.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Agreed on both parts, though Im looking for "strong masculine" names, lmao.

[wake-tonight.livejournal.com]

I love Clara! I think it's very elegant.
I don't mind Angus, but Fergus is pretty bad.

[rubytitania.livejournal.com]

I quite like both Celia and Clara.

Angus and Fergus are just *too* Scottish for me. If that's what you like then cool :)

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

The husband and I are pretty keen on having an Irish/Celtic/Scottish/Welsh name for a boy. Plus, Im having a much harder time trying to find boy names we both agree on.

[quiteoutofplace.livejournal.com]

I like Clara. That's my grandma's name.

Angus reminds me of Burger King. And a little of anus. And Fergus reminds me of Ferguson from Clarissa Explains It All. Not a big fan of either.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

I love both the names because when I worked at an elderly home, there were two little old ladies who were best friends (and roomies) named Celia and Clara. And you would never find one without the other :)

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Ive noticed that Clara is a more prominent name nowadays. Thats why I like Celia so much.

I like Angus, but everyone seems to associate it with beef right off the bat.

[tokossel.livejournal.com]

i really like clara, not a huge fan of celia.
angus does remind me of cow, hehe, and i don't like fergus at all...it reminds me of fergie, but that might be because i'm british, haha.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

I might as well name him Beef, eh?

[fluffyyduck.livejournal.com]

I like Celia better than Clara.

I don't like Angus or Fergus.

[so-there.livejournal.com]

don't like celia. clara is ok, though it is the x-wife of my grat-grampa's brother,and back then nobody got divorced so it was alll over the newspapers. she cheated on him with his friend, then left him.

angus is fine but very ethnic. fergus is a last name. I knew twins with this last name, one was a good friend of my cousin.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

People have suggested Ferguson instead of Fergus, but then I think....Why would I want my son to have TWO last names instead of a FN and a LN? I always wonder about that sort of thing...

[dosequisgirl.livejournal.com]

Clara, but I don't have much of an opinion on the other two, other than AC/DC. If I had to pick I think I would choose Angus.

[anapology.livejournal.com]

Celia soooo much more. Clara i want to like because I love the nutcracker but i love the sound of Celia. Cecelia ♥

[sherball.livejournal.com]

Definetly Celia

And what is your take on the names Angus or Fergus?

I reallllllly dislike both of them. but if I had to choose.. I'd take Fergus. Angus reminds me of anus.. *shrug*

[septembergrrl.livejournal.com]

Celia >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Clara.

Neither Angus nor Fergus is really my taste.

[sotypical42483.livejournal.com]

Celia.

I don't like Angus, but Fergus isn't bad.

[screaming--pink.livejournal.com]

Clara = Cow. You know, Clara Bell or whatever from Disney.

Angus = Cow. Certified Angus beef, right there.

Fergus = Fungus. Just what comes to mind after Fergie.

Celia = The Virgin Suicides. But I don't hate it.

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

If I have a son and a daughter, I just might be apt to name them Steak and Burger, hahaha.

[screaming--pink.livejournal.com]

Or maybe even French and Fry! ;P

[danacarlesays.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, ohhh if only.
Sadly, the hubby is a Marine, so anything "french" related would get nixed. But anything to do with salt or sodium would get the okay from him! HA!

[dancing-crazy.livejournal.com]

I love Celia, personally. I think it's gorgeous.
