1. What names are you thinking of most today?
I'm still contemplating Pleasance. I also had to think a little bit to name my two new fish but those names came pretty easily (they're Jack Daniels and Saaphyri Cookiepuss, btw).2. Do you think its ok to have themed middle names in a sibset if you like all the names?
Sure. You could call me a middle name theme advocate.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! I think cultural reference makes a great namesake.4. Do you think in about 8 years time it'll be ok to call a boy Shiloh?
It's okay now5. How do you find most of the names you put on your list, or have you just come across them over the years?
My list isn't as well kept as some others, but to answer your question my favorite names are usually reminiscent of some of my favorite movies, songs, books, or people.6. How long have you had a name list?
Since I came to BtN. Again, it's not that accurate.7. Do you write fiction/film scripts etc?
I did when I was younger.8. Whats your least favourite name atm?
I don't know! I've been sitting here for 5 minutes and can't think of anything.9. Whats the first combo that comes into your head right now? Quick!!!
Andrew Simon!! (lol wtf)10. Do you think pets should have pet names (e.g. Fluffy) or people names or do you not really care?
I don't care. Whatever works. I like unusual people names for pets normally.11. Whats the oddest combo (in your opinion) that you've ever liked?
I don't think any of them. They used to be trendier and boring but they were always respectable enough. They've gotten "odder" as time went on.12. Do you go through phases with your names, or do you tend to stick with most of them?
I've gone through some phases but I've been able to incorporate most of my all time favorites into my current combos. I've been experimenting with the art of two middle names this summer. ;)13. If you're planning on having children, how many would you want?
I say 3 or 4 now but I wonder how many I could handle.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.
Some of my boy names like Ferdinand, Demetrius, and Ezra. My family is just not down with unusual names, especially on boys. I'm just afraid my dad would get upset. (I know on here people say Ezra's not that unusual but it would be pretty weird in my family.)15. Do you like nature/word names or think they're a bit too weird and non-namey?
No, I love word names. I especially think it's cool when the first name is conventional and the middle name is a word (i.e. Michael Peace, Julia Rainbow, etc.).
