HelpRe: Only 5 girls share these names in 2013...
in reply to a message by Joiya
I like:
Adelais
Amandine - I know it means "with almonds", but it's so sweet and soft! I also like Mandaline.
Bellaluna - cheesy, but still sweet.
Calandra -
Carmine
Cecilie
Christmas - yes, I actually like it
Claudine
Clementina
Elmira
Hyacinth
Letitia - prefer Laetitia
Mariposa - but I think this can also be used to describe the, hm, vagina.
Oriane
Sorsha - I used to love the name Sorcha, because I thought it was pr. "sore-sha". I was SO disappointed when I found out that it's pr. SOR-uh-kha, which to me sounds either like the Swedish word for "voles" (sorkar) or someone saying "boys" in the dialect spoken on the island of Gotland (it sounds something like SOR-ka).
Some other comments:
Arla - dairy company here.
Bell - ding dong ding dong.
Catharina - very common here, but more often spelled Katarina, although this spelling is also used.
Christabell - sickly sweet.
Celestial - well, I like the word, but I think Celeste or Celestine would be a better name.
Havanah - gila.
Larue - like naming a child "thestreet".
Legacie - ick, it's not even spelled correctly.
Moxxi - icky.
Posie - I've always thought this sounds so ugly, like "pus".
Rune - this is a male name here.
Seraphim - I love Seraphine, Serafina and Sarafina, but Seraphim is too Biblical.
Sheba - cat food.
Shy - not something I would hope my child would be.
Snowy - horse name.
Viveka - rather common here.
Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?

Amandine and Mariposa
Amandine doesn't mean "with almonds", it's a diminutive of Amanda
Mariposa - In Mexico (and maybe other spanish speaking countries but I'm not sure) it's slang aimed at gay men as in f*****.

Ah, Mariposa is "butterfly". I don't know if it is also slang for female bits in some culture (spanish maybe?), but in the Philippines, it's just used as a name for butterfly so that is how I know it. i was surprised there were only 5 last year - but maybe your connecting is the reason why!!
Larue - lol, my aunt is name Larue.
Sheba - cat food? nice. I haven't heard of it, but I always think "Queen of Sheba".

Yes, Sheba is a cat food brand in Sweden at least. It's a bit more "luxuous" than Whiskas and such. But my cat doesn't want ANY cat food. The only food he eats is either cod or chicken. Or maaaybe tuna, if he has to. Can't understand who has spoiled him? ;)
