Re: Thoughts on these names?
in reply to a message by Mar
Hi Mar !!!From the boy list I like Fender, Sybrand, Fardau and Wessel. Fender because of the guitar and 'defender'. Sybrand has a wonderful gothic, German sound and I like the y instead of i in this case. Fardau seems a surname like Landau or Murnau both with the same gothic vibe of Sybrand so I like Fardau too. Wessel is like 'vessel' the kind of boat. I prefer Falco to Falko because it is more familiar to me.The best feminine name is Vlinder. I like the meaning and how it sound light and lively.I prefer Anemone while Merel is interesting but not enough. Pip is only masculine while I prefer Rosemary (plant) to Rozemarijn. The best would be Rosmarino that in Italian would be masculine.Personal Name Lists https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/125456

Thank you for your opinion. Rozemarijn is the proper Dutch word for the plant :) Rosmarino is very good too. My grandfather was Marijnus Marinus "Marijn", so Rozemarijn and Rosmarino would for me pass for honouring names. Rosemary would be too much of a stretch.
