in reply to a message by Katie
Great survey, Katie.1. What names are you thinking of most today?Soleil, Rowan2. Do you think its ok to have themed middle names in a sibset if you like all the names?Sure.3. Do you think its ok to name a child after a book/movie character if its not REALLY obvious, and you were passionate about the book/movie?Absolutely. 4. Do you think in about 8 years time it'll be ok to call a boy Shiloh?I think it's fine to now.5. How do you find most of the names you put on your list, or have you just come across them over the years?I either see them in books/real life or steal them from other BTNers. :D6. How long have you had a name list?Since I joined.7. Do you write fiction/film scripts etc?Obsessively.8. Whats your least favourite name atm?Stella and Benjamin jump to mind.9. Whats the first combo that comes into your head right now? Quick!!!Nova Beatrix10. Do you think pets should have pet names (e.g. Fluffy) or people names or do you not really care?I'm all for pets having people names. Fluffy, etc. seem too superficial for something, even an animal, to be known as. (Admittedly my last pets were Patch and Gizmo, but I didn't name them.)11. Whats the oddest combo (in your opinion) that you've ever liked?Either Elliot Cadence or Phoenix Arwen. 12. Do you go through phases with your names, or do you tend to stick with most of them?There are a handful I never get tired of, but I go through phases with the ones I don't love as much.13. If you're planning on having children, how many would you want?If I have children, and that is a major "if," two or three would be nice. I just may have to do two mns to squeeze in all my favorites. ;)14. Is there one name you'd really like to use, but feel like you can't for some reason or other? If so, what name and why.I love Japanese names, but something like Izumi or Hikari would seem out of place on an American child. I also adore Undomiel and Tinuviel, although I doubt they would fly with my family.15. Do you like nature/word names or think they're a bit too weird and non-namey?I love nature and word names; they make for wonderful symbolism. I don't think they're too weird but I'd probably use them as mns just for caution.
