[Opinions] Re: US February BAs 2013.
in reply to a message by Evey
Savannah Rose / Autumn Sky - I hate names that make phrases.
Macy Grace - Macy doesn't age well, and that spelling just makes me think of the department store. The first middle combination reminds me of the singer Macy Gray.
Envy Mae - Envy is an awful name to give to a child, and paired with Mae, it almost sounds like "envy me."
Mia Michelle - Too close to Lea Michele.
Sage, Jewel, Violet, and Lilah - Lilah really stands out as not fitting in with the theme of "noun names." I'm not big on obvious themes, but I still feel like it's weird to break one after three children.
Lennox (f) - I feel like Lennox is such a masculine name.
Honest Zedkiel Leigh - I'm not sure I'm too keen on Honest as a name. I think it's odd that they used the feminine spelling of Leigh, but at least they have Zedkiel to break up the first and second middle; otherwise, it would be Honest Leigh (honestly)!
Avery - Isn't on my list or anything, but I love seeing it actually used on boys!
I like:
Hazel
Rose
Kate
Claire
Josephine
Elizabeth
Clare
Alice
Sophie
Clara
Jane
Molly
Beatrice
Sage (m, GP)
Cora
Charlotte
Tabitha
Lena - as a nn for Helena
John (m)
Josephine
James
Benjamin
Douglas
Liam
William
Jamie - as a nn for Benjamin or James
Morgan
Mackenzie
Bennett
Josiah
