Alaska
Another request for another somewhat bizarre name. I think it is a beautiful word/name. Too much for a child? Or just enough for a dog? Thank you for your input, it is greatly appriciated and valued.

Hmm, well this is better than Tangerine. I tend to like state names as people names, but I don't know about Alaska. It could definitely grow on me. I'm quite partial to Montana for some reason. :)

I think it'd make a great middle name, and *possibly* it could work as a first name. However, as with all place names, I'd prefer it to be used where the parents have some connection to the place._____________________________________________________________________"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true."Elinor

Heh...(m)Being from Alaska myself...well, I wouldn't use it. I'd definitely consider using a place name that had significance to me, but Alaska is the kind of name somebody would use who'd never been there (how's that for stereotyping? *wink*).If you've lived in/visited Alaska and really loved it, then I think it would be a fine mn, but it's corny as a fn.For a more in-depth look at Alaskan names, see my post here:

Kinda werid...It is a little stupid to name anything after a state. The only names I like that happen to be states are Georgia and Virgina, but still weird for people. I might name my Huskie Alaska, but nothing else.

A bit too much for a child, but perfect for a large fluffy dog.
