Re: Our name list
in reply to a message by Joiya
Evren Charles , Ev: I like Charles. Never heard of Evren before, but I think it could grow on me. Ev sounds kind of cute.
Blaise Roberto , Blaze: Love Blaise, hate Roberto. I'm not into Italian names.
Dashiell Edward , Dash: I've always disliked Dashiell. I don't like the way it sounds.
Laszlo Josephus , Laz: Josephus is nice as a middle name, I don't like Laszlo.
Caspian Edgar , Cass: love this one, definitely my favourite. Clarisse Bituin , Clary (USED): Clarisse is ok, but it doesn't do it for me. Bituin is exotic but nice.
Mirielle Diyamante , Miri: I like it, though Diyamante is a bit out there.
Eudora Buwan , Euda: Don's like it
Leontine Prinsesa , Onti: Don't like it either. And Prinsesa, really?

Ah - I am sooo into Italian names. But my family is from Italy. My sister and I are the only ones born in the U.S. My father is Timot Calogero Giuseppe... but goes by Charles Joseph in the States. But, in this case, Roberto was a Spanish name... DH's father. Caspian Edgar seems to have won (based on the comments), which is interesting, but nice.
Perlas simply means "pearl" in Tagalog (Filipino). All of the middles are filipina names, and most are also nouns... since old-fashioned names in the Philippines have a lot of nouns. Relegated to middle name spot since we currently live in the U.S.Prinsesa, Reina and King or Prince are actually quite common there. A friend of ours recently named their son Prince Emmanuel, which is a bit much for me.
