Baby Names

When I was sixteen or seventeen I made a list of my favorite baby names/favorite names in general. I just found the list, stored away as an email draft. I've put the names that I still have an affection for in bold.

Here we go....

BOYS:
Aaron, Adrian, Aldonza, Andrew, Ash
Baptiste, Bonaparte,
Charlemagne, Chester, Claas, Clarence, Clemence, Clive, Cole
Dale, Daniel, David, Duncan, Dunstan (yes, I know, this is the name of the bad boy in Silas Marner), Dylan
Ember, Eoin (pronounced: Owen), Erik, Evan
Frank, Franklin, Frederick
Grant, Gunnar (when my brother was born his name was going to be Steven Gunnar which I thought was a horrible idea), Gustav
Jack, James, Jared, Jasper, Jeffery, Jeremiah, Jeremy, Jonathan
Kadesh, Kasper
Levi, Lloyd, Luke
Malvolio, Mandriardo, Martin
Noah
Obadiah

Paul, Patrick, Percy, Perry, Peter

Ryan
Scott, Silver, Spencer, Stefan, Stephen, Svengali
Tal, Terrence, Tobias, Troy, Tyler
Victor, Victory, Vivian

Wesley

GIRLS:
Alice, Alicia, Alyosha, Amalie, Angelique, Annaliese, Annasophia, Annette, Annika, Aoife (pronounced: EE-fah) (this should be paired for a two name first name, an example would be Aoife Jane)

Beyoncé (it just sounds so cool!)
Chavalah, Chloë, Christine
Dai (pronounced: day), Delilah
Eanah, Echo, Elaine (Lainey), Evangeline, Evelyn

Gaia
Hepzibah (Eppie)

Julie, Justine
Kale, Kate, Katalynn, Katelyn, Katherine
Lauren, Lexi

Natalya, Natasha
Shaohannah, Skye,
Tuesday
Valley, Vanya, Victoria, Victory, Violette, Vivienne

Zephaniah (Niah)

So, six children with between eight and ten names in order to use all of these favorites! Plus a couple more children with the additional names I have acquired a taste for. Like the girls names Claire, Clara, and Cassidy.

That is all for my what I would have named my child if I had been a teenage mother. Poor kid probably would have been stuck with an atrocity like Adrian Mandriardo for a name. Yikes.
