Tanith and Django.
Opinions? It's got quite the history, I know, but I identify with the myths surrounding it. I love the sound and the meaning. Tanith Eve is a maybe (I love the double symbolism in it) but I'm not sure. Wdyt, and what would you pair with it?Also what do you think of Django? I would be using the name in honor of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Django_Reinhardt Better as a middle name? Lior Django? Amar Django? Thanks!

While Tanith isn't really my style, Tanith Eve is lovely. I think Tanith Lenore would be pretty. Or Tanith Elena, maybe.I really like Django as well, but it reminds me too much of my brother's dog, who was named after Django Reinhardt, to really appreciate any combos involving it as a first name. That being said, I really like Amar Django. How is Lior pronounced? I love the meaning, but I'm not sure how to say it.

I sort of like Tanith, but I'd keep it as a GP, personally (and on a side note, the goddess could be connected with child-sacrifice). The name is related to the Egyptian goddess Neith ( creation goddess)- I absolutely adore Neith. WDYT?

"Could be"Diana did some awful things - but her name is okay?Sorry, I'm in a pissy mood. I do like Neith. I'd have to research it a bit more but overall it's grate. The rest of the naems didn't do much for me, I hate to say. Evren is a favorite (or was until it become a board darling), but the rest (save for Helen) are nmsasa.Thanks!

Tanith is interesting, though not really my style. But I really don't care for Django, in spite of the Reinhart connection I can't imagine it on a real person.

My mother's favorite name is Django (after Django Reinhardt) and, being a guitarist, I whole-heartedly approve.Tanith was on my PNL for a while, but I got over it in pretty short order. It's a nice name in theory, but I just can't see it on a real child.

Really?Tanith seems to fit in very, very well with all the current names. I see on a child much more easily than a lot of the names I hear on the board. Hmm, I'll have to think of that.

Well, you'll notice...... that none of my feminine names tend to carry much weight. Even my more "boy-ish" favorites (Quinn, Sloane, Hollis) are rather light. So I guess I have a hard time with "bulky-er" names, which is what I concider Tanith to be. Also, now I think about it, I really don't even like weighty names on boy's (my favorites being River, Shannon, August, ect.). I guess I'm just a feather-weight namer :-)

Some quick responses:Tanith Kathleen - this is the name of X's mom. I think it's neat.Tanith Lisette - I love Lisette, not sure how it flows togetherTanith Elizabeth - Would honor three women in one fell swoop. Pretty good idea.Tanith Imogen - hmm. Tanith Innogen would be neater, but I like.
Tanith Marisol - I love thisTanith Christine - do you have a list of my family names? ;-) Christine would honor, let me see, five people. :-D Tanith Miriam - This is perfect. Utterly perfect, ty.Tanith Veronica - Perfect in another way.Thanks!

Lol!No, no list. :-P I was just looking at Tanith and thinking, "If I were VickyBliss, what names might I like?" and then I started making combos. And they just kept coming...I seriously came up with X's mom's name right off the bat? Wow...

Django = Jango = Very cool Star Wars connotation! :-)No, no, no! Django = greatest jazz guitarist in pretty much the history of evar. He had two usable fingers on his left hand, and yet he played like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UVw5C0SDkcStar Wars is well and good, but gypsy jazz represent, man. ;)Array

Yes...But Django's maybe dad will appreciate the Star Wars connection.;-)

Also: Otis and Otto.Otis is because of Otis Redding, while Otto is a family name and just cool sounding. I prefer Otis. Otis Django? Hmm, I think I've found the perfect combo.

...Ahahahaha.I didn't read this before replying to you.Array

I really like both. Tanith is pretty and feminine, but in an unusual sort of way--and I really like -ith names, I'm finding. Tanis is also really nice, IMO. And Django is just what we call bad to the ass.No combo ideas atm, but I'll think on them. ♥Array

LOL, thanks.Tanis is cute, but for some reason it reminds me of ass. WDYT think of Lyle Django? After two of my favorite (and imho opinion most creative) musicians? Too much? I've been on a serious Lyle Lovett kick, though. I Will Rise Up has been played almost constantly, ditto for North Dakota and If I Needed You.

Lyle Django would get the thumbs-up from me, since I'm quite fond of both of them, but I don't think they have quite the melodious rhythm together that each deserves.Django Thelonious, however--now that is getting closer. Django Duke, Django Miles, Django Wilson, Otis Django. Hmmmm.Array

LMAOThat is hilarious.I'm also going to write down Wilson, Duke and Thelonious - all are favs.
