Woah, weird. What made me think of this topic was this girl who just had a baby
and named him Xavier.
lol....thats funny....well if i had a girl i would name her Presea, I got that
from a character in the anime rpg game, Tales of Symphonia...i just thought that
name would be nice and if i had a boy...ummm...i dont know
For a girl, I would like Alyssa, Sophia, Vivian, Sylvia or Cassandra/Cassandria.
People say that my kid will get quite bothered at school if she gets that name,
and how weird I am. ;__;
For a boy, I would like Juan Luis (I live in a country were spanish is the main
language, don't be all wow and stuff =x) or Mark, dunno... haven't thought names
for a boy, really. Besides, it's still many years until I have kids.
While the choices for names that you have provided are quite an interesting
selection indeed, I think it would be even more interesting to hear your
motivations, if you have any, for choosing particular names.
For example, if I were to have children, I would name the first Alexander or
Alexandria, for a number of reasons. For one, while creativity is well and
good, when it comes to something as important as a name, I feel that something
that is more traditional is best. Indeed, I've always found comfort in the
tried-and-true.
Why Alexander, and not Thomas, William, Jonathan, or any of a whole host of
other names? For one, it's a name with a certain noble quality firmly grounded
in western tradition. Besides, it has an obvious nickname, Alex, that can be
used in less-formal situations. There are other reasons, of course, but they're
too much to go into any detail on this thread, where few will actually read, let
alone care, about my thoughts on the matter.
The difficult part is choosing a good Mandarin name. For that, I will most
likely have to turn to my parents and grandparents, as I have absolutely no
experience in selecting auspicious names in Chinese.
lol oh darn, names.... uhhhhhh, ok, i dunno, maybe i'd continue the initials
that me and my brothers got, which were aotl... or perhaps i'd create new
initials for them...
names for them, how bout harry, abalone, archibald... frank...
out of ideas.. but those were choices i once had... my parents considered those
for me (except for frank), so maybe i'll use those

Hey, explanations are good... I would read them.
And it would be more interesting to hear more than just a list, so I'll
contribute to your trend and explain my own choices.
Adrienne: This is my cousin's name, but really I just love the sound of it. It's
just the right level of uncommoness: unique, but not too weird. However, I fear
that I will soon be blinded to my liking of this name as my cousin Adrienne
grows more beatiful and snobbish... Hopefully it's just a phase. ^^;;
Kaya: It's a Japanese name, but not all too foreign sounding. Though there is a
chance of all her teachers pronouncing it "kei - uh" instead of
"kai - ah."
Auryn: My reasons for this one are similar to those of choosing
"Adrienne." It also has a nice meaning behind it, gold.
Lea: I just love the sound of this name... It's very soft and simple. And I just
think it looks better without the "h" at the end.
Jason: My favorite of the "j" names for boys. It has a good, strong
sound to it.
Keita: Haha... I had a crush on a guy named Keita... and I've always loved
Japanese names.
Notice my descriptions get shorter and shorter as they list progresses... *has a
short attention span*
*laughs at self*
I feel like a mom-to-be writing all this. I don't even know if I want to have
kids yet!
Okay, admit it, you've thought of it before, even if you aren't planning to ever have kids.
What would you want to name them?
Kali and Xavier
Woah, weird. What made me think of this topic was this girl who just had a baby and named him Xavier.
lol....thats funny....well if i had a girl i would name her Presea, I got that from a character in the anime rpg game, Tales of Symphonia...i just thought that name would be nice and if i had a boy...ummm...i dont know

For me...
Adrienne
Kaya
Auyrn

And that, as they say, is that.
