Names I've Heard Recently

It's been quite a while since I last posted. But though I have dropped off posting I have not dropped off my enthusiasm for names!

Below are some of the names I've come into contact with over the summer and fall:

Two families I know:
one - Don & Lydia had their first daughter, Evelyn Amy (just too lovely for words!)
two - John & Alicia's new daughter Olivia Renee joins sister Emily Mae

A girl at my workplace is having twin girls: Samara & Savannah
Another woman is having a little girl: Riley Lynn (if it was a boy he would be Dakota James)

A granddaughter of a lady at my workplace has three children: Colin (9), Sophie (6) and Helen (2)

Eric & Leslie Ludy
Hudson, Harper Grace, Kipling Joel Anthony "Kip" and Avonlea Rose

My well rounded knowledge of names came in handy when an actor in a film seemed to be hiding an accent. With the last name of Owens I figured he must be Welsh and I was correct.

Alphabet Favorites

small

Object: One girls name and one boys name I like best for each letter.
Reason: Because I haven't done one of these in a while.

Girls / Boys

Amy / Aidan
Beatrice / Bartholomew
Catherine / Ciaran
Davia / Douglas
Eleanor / Eamon
Felicity / Finley
Grace / Gideon
Helena / Henry
Irene / Ian
Jocelyn / Jack
Kirsten / Kenneth
Lena / Laurence
Mary / Michael
Naomi / Nathaniel
Opal / Owen
Phoebe / Pearce
Quinn / Quinn
Ruby / Roman
Sally / Simon
Tabitha / Tristan
Una / Urias
Viola / Vaughan
Wilhelmina / William
Xandra / Xander
Yseult / Yoan
Zinnia / Zechariah

Not all of the above I'd use as first names but many I would use as middle names if I got the chance. Boy, it's been a long time since I've done one of these. I actually had to got to my lists at LadyBug Names to remember what my faves were for the more obscure letters. That was fun though. :)

Now you go ahead and do it. It is a bit hard to limit yourself to just one for each letter!

Descisions, descisions - boys combos

  • Jack Tristan - changed from Jack Michael Auguste. I like Tristan a lot but not sure I want it as a first name.
  • Crispin - I liked Crispin Lee because Crispin is related to my mom's maiden name and Lee is my mom's middle name. I've also been thinking about Crispin Lucius or Crispin Evander but I can't quite decide.
  • Titus - I had Titus Andrew but I think I want to change it, perhaps to Titus Roman.
  • Cianan - I love this name's closeness to Ciaran (my fave) but I'm trying to decide between Cianan Matthew, Cianan Bryce or Cianan Stuart.
  • Micah - I love Micah's closeness to Michael and I love J middle name with M first names. I've been considering Micah Jubal but I think I'll go with Micah Joel.
  • Elias - trying to find a good middle name. I used to love Elias Henry but I'm not too sure. I've been thinking of Elias Griffin or Elias Matthew but they're not spectacular.
  • Soren - I love this name but can't find just the right middle name. I've been considering Soren Finley, Soren Gunther and Soren Dominic.
  • Tobias - I've been thinking of several various middle names: Tobias Clement, Tobias Daniel, Tobias Ewan and Tobias Einion. I think Tobias Ewan is very nice but not quite sure, I'd like a name of the same kind.
  • Skander - I've liked this the first time I heard it on the actor Skandar Keynes who played Edmund in Narnia. I like Skander Edmund or Skander William but I'm also thinking about Skander Amadeus, Skander Dominic, Skander Thomas or Skander Willem.
  • Ian - I love this but I'm trying to decide between Ian Thomas, Ian Theodore, Ian Tavish, or Ian Carmichael.
  • Cillian - I like this but I'm not sure if I like Killian better or not. I guess Cillian is best. I've been considering a wide varriety of middle names including Cillian Alastair, Cillian Bruce, Cillian Rhys, Cillian Trace, Cillian Tadhg, and Cillian Finley.
  • Griffin - Griffin Bennett or Griffin Bryce. I think I need more middle name options, I'm not liking this. Brody also needs some middle name options, perhaps Ronan.

I'm also trying to decide if I like Gareth Einion or Einion Gareth better.

These I've already decided on:
Asa Benjamin
Sinjon Tertius
Corin Bertrand
Ira David
Phineas Ebenezer
