HelpRe: Boy/Girl name choices
in reply to a message by Laurie
Dashiell - This is my favourite of your boy choices although I don't really like it all that much. I find it rather pretentious and I don't like the way it sounds.
Beckett - Sounds too surname-y for me and could easily morph into bucket in certain accents. I prefer Bennett.
Carter - Again too surname-y for me, and I'm not a big fan of the former president.
Lucan - Murder. Lord Lucan, my only association with this name was a murderer.
Ellery - Celery.
Kali - the goddess Kali is many different shades of awesome, but I'd not want to be named after her. Kali means "death" basically. Callie is a bit juvenile but doesn't have the same negative meaning attached to it.
Remi - I love Remi for a boy and as a nickname for a girl, but not as a full name.
Peyton - I don't mind this for boys, but don't like it at all for a girl
