Re: Totally Awsome Names, pluse twins!!!

"Felix" is most definitely a *boys* name (try Felicia) and *Ashely*, besides looking like an evident misspelling, will not make any son you so name leap for joy. (Trust me on the latter. I know two younger guys named Ashley, and they both agree with this view.)

Yep, I also thought "Felix" was an odd choice for a girl, and "Ashley" a disastrous choice for a boy.Plus, I believe "Noel" is more often seen as a masculine name (probably made popular in the 60s by the actor Noel Harrison, who played Mark Slate on the spin-off teevee series to *The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Not to mention the British playwright, Noel Coward.). I would choose "Noelle" for a girl, instead.Oh yeah... And, like "Toby", "Red" is a dog's name. (e.g. "Big Red" from the children's novel by Kjelgaard, which was made into a movie.)-- Nanaea
