Re: Names from fiance's graduation
First, I misread the title as "Names from fiance's grandson." That has nothing to do with anything, though.I can't decide on my feelings for Nicholas Jonathan Jeremy Cornelius. I can't decide if it's overly complicated for reality or so OTT awesome that it somehow loops back to being usable. I think Nikolai Jonathan Jeremiah Cornelius would flow better and I'd like it more, but that's mostly because I dislike the similar endings of Nicholas and Cornelius in the same combo.Kit! Love this. Would've preferred it as a nn for Christopher, Christoph, or Christos, but either way, Kit on a guy is great.Moanaroa...I'm guessing after the baseball player? It's interesting and I kind of like it, but the "moan" is kind of throwing me off.Leander Theodor Wolfgang is pretty great. But, again, I'd do Leander Theodoric Wolfgang.Something about Gino Paris just makes me HAPPY.Jed Eli? SO close to Jedi!Edgardo is so cool, why have I never heard of it before?!Cle-Anne...Sounds like an overpronunciation of "clean." The Cle- looks so incomplete and lonely.Ulrike Christine - YES.Florence Calypso - YES AGAIN.I've been developing a liking for Bridie lately, in spite of my better judgement. Brydie looks odd to me, though.Artemis is always great, can never have too much Artemis.I actually like the sound of Gayla, but I've always doubted its usability (maybe Gaila would be better?). Nice to see it in use, though.Carice? Like Clarice? I sort of like the sound, but not the look. Charice or Charisse might make it better? I dunno.Bernardina is sweet. ♥Sabine! Love, love, love.Destynee?! Whyyyyyy...? Why take a name that already sound silly (imho) and make it even worse?Zita Evangeline I could get behind.Freedom is a GP for either gender, though I'd only use it as a middle name. Equal parts neat and strange as a first name.Stancy Lee is grin-inducing. I hope it was a guy, that'd just make it even better.
