If I ever have kids, these would be their names:
Brandon Edward
Logan Allen
Kyra Amelthia
Eowyn Kathryn
Freaky names huh? lol What about you guys? _________________ Blessed be and luv,

I only want two kids, boy first, then girl and I think I'm going to call them
Callum Joshua
Elanor Janet

Of course... must find a man first... _________________ ~ Emma |

I'd really like Altariel, it's not that bad as names go and not many people will know where it comes from.
However I do like Maedhros, which probably would be cruel. _________________ Courage is not the absence of fear: it is the mastery of it.

Well, I already have kids, so this might not count:
Daniel William
Isabella Hope
But! I plan on having at least two more (if I don't grow ancient first)
Thomas Nickolas
Riley Gregory
Alexis Elanor
Elizebeth Gabriela
If I were to subject my children to names in books (not just Tolkien)
Julian Alexandros
Adonis Christian
Arminas Elros
Elladan Daeron (I love the way that rolls off the tongue)
Anarion Elendil
Hmm, and I can't think of any little girl's name more beautiful than the ones I've already said, so I'll just leave it at that. I have dicovered though, that I have a preference for boys names that begin with 'A'
Odd.

Very lovely names, BB.
Over the years, my list has changed, and the fact that I'm now married to an Englishman... well, let's just say that some of the French names I had in mind won't necessarily go down well if we do get around to have kids.
Laurence is a favourite of mine, French female name - not Lawrence
Madailéin
Sandrine
Aljena
Calleigh
Lolita (just 'cause it bugs the hell out of Rob)
Daniel
Eric
Samuel
Patrick
Kieran
Kyle
And chances are, once I see the kid's face, I'll think of some other name...

I don't have children yet but i would like to have them soon (i'm almost 21 now), i just need to find potential father Everytime i see babies i can't help the feeling that i want mines already.
I want at least two children: a boy and then a girl, but 4 would be best (two girls and two boys)
Right now my favorite names for girls are:
Karina Zofia
Natalia Alicia
Tatiana Sylvia
Zuzanna Kaia
For boys:
Kacper Daniel
Michal Kordian
Aleksander Krzysztof
Mateusz Krzesimir
I really have hard time chosing between those names...
The names that you don't recognize are slav (Polish)
Kordian is a name from a book actually
and as for the names from the books, if i could i would name my children:
girls:
Lessa Artanis
Iola Indis
Llewella Essi
Aerin Lothiriel
boys:
Sebell Imrahil
Estel Brand
Elladan Castamir
but i don't know if the children would forgive me for giving them such unusual names... Besides, the father will have the right to say something about the names too.
It is a must for girls' names to end with '-a' here in Poland so i guess i can't give my daughters names like Aerin and Lothiriel :sigh:
btw, '-mir' in slav languages means peace (for example in Polish king's name Casimir, or Jaromir [=Yaromir], Mira)

I have one kid. Her names are:
Saga Elisabet Lilith Kristina.
She goes by the name Saga, which means 'she who sees' (sort of..). It´s the name of a prophetess in the nordic mythology, or something like that.
Elisabet is from my mother-in-law. It derives from hebrew and it means 'God is perfection'.
We gave her the name Lilith in honor of the first woman, who also happened to be a very cool woman, indeed!
Kristina is my mother´s name. It means 'the christian' in latin.
If I ever have a boy, I´ve decided (my hubby has no say in this, btw) to name him Alvar. My grandfather´s name was Alvar and I adored him! He died 16 years ago and I still miss him every now and then. He was a lovely grandfather. Also, I think it´s a beautiful name. Oh, it means 'elven warrior', btw... Très cool!
LOTR-names I like: Eowyn, Beren, Meadhros, Elladan, Nienna, Eomer...
It would be fun (but rather cruel) to name a couple of twinboys Peregrin and Meriadoc.
Sadly, most of the names from LOTR don´t work in swedish. I know someone, btw, who named their kid Bilbo. The poor kid is called Dildo in school! |

Oh, I didn't know we were supposed to do meanings too. Well
Daniel means 'God is my judge' and William means 'Resolute Protector'
Oddly, my husband and my son share the exact same name and middle name. (That is odd because I met my hubby 5 years after I had my son) I thought it was prophetic or something. Funny that they both wince when something goes wrong and I yell "Daniel William!" down the hallway.
My daughters name is Isabella which means "God is my oath" and Hope simply means, well.. hope
I find it unsual that me, being the devout atheist that I am, have two children with first names centered around 'god.' Makes me laugh  _________________ -The Queen of Everything - so dubed by Aerin

My little guy's name is Adam Douglas. If he had been a girl, he was going to be Hannah Katherine.
My husband and I had a hard time agreeing on either name. I had very distinct ideas about what I liked, and he hated every suggestion I made. I don't even remember how we finally agreed on Adam or Hannah.
My favorite for a girl is Abigail, called Abby. And for a boy, Nicholas.
DH couldn't explain hating Abby, and as for Nicholas, he said it reminded him of someone he used to hate.  |

Erm, hello...? We could have discussed this BEFORE we got married?
Laurence, imagine a load of Aussie blokes trying to pronounce that and get it right after a couple of VB's.
Madailéin, what?
Sandrine, No.
Aljena, is that pronoucable.
Calleigh, that's a Scottish dance, badly misspelled
Lolita, bad connotations.
Eric, the half a bee. No
Samu, ???
Kyle, No. To close to a girl's name
Anything Irish, No (You just want Sean)

My hubby wouldn't let me name the dogs (despite the fact that Napoleon and Furrbutt are perfectly fine names), so I get to name the kids, whenever they happen so show up.
I'm partial to Tahiti because my last name is Jackson, and doesn't that just sound prime-time?
Last name of Jackson also means that Andrew, Michael, Latoya, Janet, Tito, Mississippi, and Alan are all way out of the question. Kendall wouldn't be so bad, if the kid didn't mind being named after table wine. |
