HelpRe: Part 5 - Top 10 Names Experiment (May)
in reply to a message by Spartz
I didn't know this was a monthly post. I probabaly missed last month's.
BOYS:
1. Louis (Louie)
2. Russell (Rusty)
3. Paul
4. Axel
5. Dexter (Dex)
But if I had a boy tomorrow, I would only seriously consider the top 2. I am pretty solid on Louis and my husband like it too. He even like the nn Louie.
GIRLS:
1. Ione
2. Fiona
3. Delphine (Delphi or Della)
4. Daphne
5. Millicent (Millie or Milla)
Delphine is a newly discovered favorite.
My daughter is already named Fiona. I hadn't discovered Ione when I was picking names for her.
Only two of these names, 3 and 4, would be considered for a real daughter, assuming my husband likes them. I am afraid to bring up these choices for fear he would shoot them down. He's not as adventurous with names as I am. He would be happy enough if I liked names like Emily and Olivia.
Because my husband hates Ione, and its too similar with Fiona, I would likely reluctantly abandon it as a serious contender if I had another girl.
And I wouldn't consider Millicent because, again my husband hates it, and it really doesn't go with my 12 letter, 5 syllable last name that also begins with an M.
Delphine might be a little long, but I would still consider it because it is only 2 syllables, and is passable with my last name.
