1.Dorothea, Lorraine, Nathan, Jack, Cleo.
2.Sure.
3.I think this is actually better than naming your child after an obvious character, like Scout or Scarlett. However, if you truly love an "obvious" name, there's nothing wrong with that.
4.Probably. I've heard the name on a few babies already, so I wouldn't bat an eye at a boy named Shiloh. Funny, because no one gave the name much thought until Brad and Angelina.
5.I've read baby name books since I was about twelve years old, so I'm a total name nerd.
6.See #5.
7.I write poetry and short stories.
8.Florence, Fanny, Pearl, Olivia, Isabella, Emma. Basically, names that sound "old" and names that are too damn trendy.
9.Dorothea Lorraine.
10.I think people names for pets are kind of stupid. If you're going to give your pet a persons' name, make it a quirky one.
11.Liberty Belle. I heard it on "American Dad".
12.I tend to stick with most of them.
13.Just one.
14.I love the name Cora, but it would sound awkward with the baby's last name.
15.Nature names are all right, but word names are silly.

Wow... I'm loving Lorraine and Cleo from your list... I actually... lol this is weird but I've had Shiloh on my first names list, which was around the time the movie with the dog came out... so I found it there rather than Brad and Angelina's baby and was absolutely gutted when they called her it. The only reservations I had about using it before was that essentially I'd be naming a child after a dog.
