I really like the names that you stated. My son's name is Brinn. I have heard of his name used for boys and girls. It can also be spelled numerous ways. It is a welsh name meaning small hill or mound.

Maia was either Greek or Roman for the Mother (Earth Mother, I guess). I've gotten a few good grades in high school because of her (including one for a derivation that my English teacher wasn't familiar with). ;) That's what you get for having an unabridged dictionary and a love of reading, I guess. :P

yeah, i would too except for the fact that whenever its spelled Maya people tend to think of the culture and not the name. Cherokee would be a good name too (i think) but it would be too confusing.

I like Lalena (tilde n), Kiri and Zeporah (or Ziporah). There are a few others, but I lack the time to list them (I'm on campus right now between classes).;>
