Rowan (boy), it's unisex to me, but then I can use Dahlia for a girl.
2. mythological
Lugh & Medea (not the happiest connection, but I love the name)
3. color
OK , so I googled 'colour names' for this to see if I could pick something nice:
Gray (no search needed) & Sienna
There is, apparently, a colour called 'awesome'..
4. first name from your ethnicity, middle name from your partner's ethnicity (so for me it would be German first name and German or Polish middle names)
I have no partner, so I will assume I will meet someone Irish, seeing as I live there:
Boudewijn Daire & Johanna Liadan
5. family name
eh.. My family doesn't have the greatest names..
Jacobus *Jake* & Henrietta *Hetty*
