Girls
Nikita: This has been my very fave girls name since I was 15 (22 years ago), or so, and heard Elton John sing about this woman named Nikita and I fell head over heels in love with it as a girls name. While it's a Russian boys name, it'll fly in Denmark, as more girls has it than boys. Also, it just sounds more girly to me, with the name ending on an 'a'.
Amelia: This is because of the female flying ace Amelia Earhart. Has been my 2nd fave girls name for 15 years or something like that.

Boys
Elliott: This is for the boy in the movie "E.T." and it's the same reason as below, only I first watched this movie as a young teenager, but still fell in love with the name and it has been my very fave boys name since then.
Bastian: While I'd watched the movie "The Neverending Story" as a kid, I didn't fall in love with this name, before I was a teenager, watched it again and fell in love with the name, that is the name of the male protagonist, a small boy, in the movie. Has been my 2nd fave for maybe as long as with Amelia.

All of mine comes from some sort of pop-culture thing, except for Amelia who was a real person, still Amelia Earhart is used for pop-cultural references, when speaking of extraordinary women, who did groundbreaking things for being a women in the 1930s, today.
