what do you think?
I'm expecting a baby in the next couple of months and I've gotten 3 names picked. Aviva (uh-vee-vuh) and Pagan for girls' names and Tabron (tay-brun) for a boy. My mother and husband aren't too crazy about the names I've picked (especially Tabron and Pagan), but I love them. I was wondering what you guys think...and if maybe you have any suggestions for middle names to go with them?:-) Thanks,
Liz

I see you've already found http://members2.boardhost.com/haggisbutt/ which is a message board that will give you more feedback on a question of this nature than you might find here. We mainly deal with name meanings and origins here, and Haggisbutt gets more traffic than this place, too.I have to agree with what Lux wrote to you about the name of "Pagan". And also add that giving a daughter that name sounds to me as though the parent may have intended to give her the trendier name of "Payton", but had somehow gotten the names confused.Naming your child "Tabron" makes no sense to me at all, seeing as how you stated over on the other message board that you have no idea what it means, but that it sounds "kind of Celtic" to you. You could wind up giving your child a name which, later on, you might discover actually means "pie face" or "disturbed seeker of the Little People" or something."Aviva", on the other hand, is a cool name -- but I wouldn't give a child due to be born "in the next couple of months" (September?) a name which means "springtime". Not that there's anything wrong with that, as the child can symbolize springtime and rebirth at any time of the year. It's just that it doesn't quite feel "right" to me for a September baby.
