Re: Found my list of possible names as a baby
in reply to a message by Scarlett Rose *
This would have been my choices, ranked:
Jenny "Candice": I do like Jenny, but only as a nickname, so I'm not wild about it as a full name, but I love Candice and think it should be used more often. So this would be my first pick.
Leah Elizabeth: Both very pretty.
Rebecca Paige: Not wild about Paige, but I love Rebecca. But since Rebecca was more popular in the eighties than Leah, Leah was a better choice.
Julie Christine: Christine bores the heck out of me, but Julie is pretty, though not as beautiful as Julia.
Emily Anne: Emily is fine, but way overused, Anne is boring as a middle name.
Stephanie Nicole: Something about Stephanie has always gotten on my nerves--same with Nicole.
Andrea Paige: I'm so-so about Andrea.
Boys, ranked:
Luke Stuart--I've always loved Luke, Stuart is okay as a middle name, though I wouldn't use it as a first name.
Brent Ian---Brent is very handsome, not wild about Ian, but it's the middle name so no big deal.
Jeffery Ian---Jeffery sounds so whiny to me.
Neil Craig--I don't like the sound of either name and the flow is not good.
Jenny "Candice": I do like Jenny, but only as a nickname, so I'm not wild about it as a full name, but I love Candice and think it should be used more often. So this would be my first pick.
