For me, I’ve always liked the name “Joel” for a boy and thought that the name “Ava” was pretty (classic) for a girl. I had recently heard the name “Baya” (Bay-a) for a girl. It’s pretty.

i always wanted to name a daughter Charlotte, but we had only one daughter and my wife prevailed.
SRM
I named my daughter Ryan, and I still love her name. It suits her perfectly.
I’ve always liked single and simple names. My election would be Gabriel for a boy and Maria for a girl.
My great grand mother (rest her soul) was named fina. I’ve always loved that name so much!
I like Elizabeth for a girl, because there are so many variants that the person could choose as she redefines herself through life… Eliza, Liz, Beth, Betty, Betsy
I always like Christopher for boys… I don’t know why, exactly. I guess from an affinity for Christopher Robin when I was a little girl!
I’ve always like different names or names that meant something to me. For example I love the works of Jane Austen so I’ve always like the idea of naming a girl Austen (after Jane Austen) and a boy Darcy (after Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice). The names are kind of switched with the gender you would first associate them with, but hey, I knew two guys named Kelly.
I’ve always liked Adrien for a boy, and Claire for a girl.
“Michael” is always one of the top names every year. It’s my name. And I like it.
I like Ethan for a boy and Layla for a girl
I’ve always liked the name Elliott for a girl.
Then there’s Nunzio and “Li’l Cheech” for a boy, and Fiorina for a girl?
Jessica. It’s a beautiful name.
My name’s Jessica. :)
I’ve always liked the names Lola, Veronica, Leila, and Carrie for a girl. And I’ve always liked the names Ryan and Erin/Aaron for a boy.
Girl: Stella or Evelyn
Boy: Axton or Sailor I also like Henry
@essieness Ooh, I like the idea of naming a girl Stella. Or maybe even Star? That sounds so hippie-ish. xD
For some odd reason, the name Maere for a girl seems so exotic to me. If I’d had a daughter, that’d been her name. Or maybe Jadzia, that’s a cool name too.
But no kids for me, so I guess my next pet is going to get stuck with a funny name like those two I mentioned. At least no one in school will make fun of them or mispronounce it.
@mangeons oh Hell no, to provoke the wrath of my Creator is something I would never do. It’s not a good thing when humans and gods to intermingle, if my understanding of history is any indication. ;-)
For boys: benjamin, james, dmitri, pyotr, vlad, and gabriel.
for girls: anastasya, alysandra, svetlana, hope, and lillian.
I love Eurpean names, especially Russian, Slavic, Irish, and Romanian.
I like the idea of Dmitri, but it has to be Demetri, with another e, otherwise I think it looks funny, like you just forgot to put a letter in. I also like Demetrius.
