Re: What do the names you'd choose say about YOU?
in reply to a message by whim
If I had to choose with my current significant other (who is lovely and will discuss this with me... but I definitely have to compromise):
Matilda Jane
Clementine Eliza
Phoebe Frances
Rufus Charles (actually he wants Rufus Anthony but I've overruled him here)
Leon Henry
For a while, my picks have been solidly:
Susannah Frances (or Susannah Blythe)
Gideon Charles
Arthur Lionel
Henry Alastair
Marguerite Rose
Matilda Jane
Clementine Eliza
Phoebe Frances
Rufus Charles (actually he wants Rufus Anthony but I've overruled him here)
Leon Henry

You crack your knuckles a lot and are very fond of poetry and mud-wrestling, but not at the same time
You're English. You watch foreign-language films and enjoy learning about the colonial history of places Britain colonised. You go on holiday (or want to go on holiday) to France. You like having vases of flowers in your home. You read a lot of 20th Century classic novels.
You're British, or an Anglophile. You love Jane Austen, and you're totally into fibre arts like knitting. You wear glasses, and your pets have amusing names. You have a really uninteresting job but you make up for it by having a rich inner life.
I would say you like traditional names, but not so traditional that they are boring and common place. In a way you have a free spirit by choosing names that are both traditional and untraditional at the same time.
