Re: Favorite name from your culture, Favorite name from a foreign culture...?
in reply to a message by Joiya
There is only one name that I like that is from outside my culture and would seem too off-the-wall to Americans: Solange. Generally, I don't even judge foreign names unless they have become very assimilated into my culture.

Solange is a pretty name,quite common where I live, but probably not on anyone under 60.

I like Solange, but been crushing on it's sister Solene lately. I can't decide if French is foreign to me or not.
I have to cop out and admit that most of the names I love from other cultures are pretty assimilated as well. With the exception of Ludovica and Melisande. Those have only hopped and skipped to a bordering country or so. None have arrived in North America yet.
