What names do you like?


Recommended Posts

Polynices, Eteocles, Ismene, Cyrano, Jean Valjean...

You know, cool literary ones...

Okay, then there's...

Yuki, Midori, Shinji, or Rei

those would happen to be Japanese names

And what of english names? Any that doesn't sound redneck-esque is good.

Names for guys :

If I have a boy, be sure he'll have the name Takumi. I like its meaning : "Skillful". I also deeply like the name Louis.

Names for girls :

I have a bias for a certain type of name, really unfamiliar : all names with a suffix "-ane" :

Joséane

Sophiane

Ariane

Éliane

(I especially like Sophiane, here. -ane is a suffix that actually means "Graceful", giving a name meaning "Graceful Wisdom")

I also like the name Geneviève.

I dislike though composed names. Notice my delight for meaningful names.

So... If you ever hear "Takumi LeMelvillois, viens ici tout de suite!", be sure that you know his father :wine:

[Oh yeah, I feel dishonoured by the name I actually bear (Lachapelle)... So, I'll be willing to take a new one whenever I can, adding as well the family name of my mother, but keeping both patronym and matronym as secondary names. Don't try to understand those ways, they aren't traditionnal as I show about no respect to tradition just by being a tradition.]
