[Opinions] Re: My Favorite Celeb names of all time
Giselle -- I agree. It makes me think of the ballet. What's the celebrity reference? Is it a hot name for celebs to call their children?Carmen -- Yes, although the opera comes to mind before Ms. Electra.Marilyn -- Sorry, I prefer Norma (another opera reference, now that I thik of it.)Tara -- OK.Michelle -- OK.Beyonce -- Sorry, I like her, but not her name. It has a pretty sound to it, I'll grant you, but I have the sneaking suspicion her parents strayed into kre8tyv territory.Celine -- Yes. A very elegant name. Angelina -- Angelica has more class, to me. Tyra -- OK.Eva -- Love this one. Very elegant and timeless.Jude -- Very chic and sophisticated.Brad -- Sorry, this name has never done much for me.Usher -- Someone who brings me to my seat. Asher, now there's a name!Elijah -- Yes, very exotic and earthy at the same time. Orlando -- I know the Virginia Wolff connection should make me give this name a second chance, but I just can't get the word "gigolo" out of my head when I hear this name. I prefer its variant Roland (Chanson de Roland, anyone?)

I agree with every word...Except that I really like Orlando and dislike Michelle :-)
Thanks Bear!

Gisele Bundchen is a Brazilian model. I can't think of anyone else called Giselle.
