[Opinions] Re: John
Yay. I love the name John. Overly used in the past, I think he doesn't get enough attention any more. People say it's high in the charts, but I rarely see it discussed on baby name boards. John Eldon would be a nice way to honor your father. An "Elton John" image kind of takes it over though.John Whitney -- Too bad Whitney has become a spoiled rich girl name, in my mind at least. See? This is why I hate people indiscriminately using other people's surnames as fns. John Ernest -- Great combination, it honors your family, and subtley honors one of my favorite authors, Oscar Wilde and "The Importance of Being Earnest." This one gets the thumbs up from me.I came up with John Garbhan / Garvan by chance yesterday. It's been rattling around in my head all day. Maybe you would like it too. Other than that, my usuals are:John Graham ("GRAY-um")
