All pretty/handsome.
Except for Malachy, which I loathe lol That's part of my "unholy" trinity of ugly male names, along with Mordecai and Malachi. They all sound like death to me, no offense.
Also, I love Euphemia, nn Effie. So cute!

Funny, I also loathe Mordecai and Malachi. It's that "kai" ending sound. The "kee" however, is very pleasant, so Malachy and Malachi are on opposite spectrums. :)

Shoshana stands out in your girls list, is there a story behind your love of that (as opposed to Susannah or Susan)? Oh and I'm currently browsing through royal geneologies on Wikipedia and coming across a few Euphemias, it's so neat to see them interspersed there.Ieuan is sure fun. Look may, no consonants (almost)!

No real story behind Shoshana. I just love the sound of it. It's like jewels in your mouth. And it has this strength, warmth, and color that Susannah, etc. lack for me.Haha, I never even noticed that Ieuan is almost all vowels.

I love Virginia! It was my favorite for over a year when I was about 16. I also really like Elizabeth. I want to like Margaret, but I know one who is horrible. I hope I will meet a nice person named Margaret so it can grow on me because it's such a lovely name.

One thing I like a lot about Margaret is that I can picture it on any sort of person. I can picture a mean, bitter Margaret, although would prefer not to since I love the name. :)
