[Opinions] some interesting name ideas...twins, themes, etc.
I heard these twin names here at school. I have a friend named Dawn who has a twin named Eve. I find these too drippy sweet. My English professor has two boys Easton and Weston (nn Wes). I don't think these are too bad, especially with the nickname Wes. Speaking of Easton, I play hockey, and we were talking recently about "theme" naming a set of kids after hockey equipment...(I know stupid). We only used those we could see as names (ie, no CCM, Itech, Jofa, etc.)Here's what we came up with:
Easton
Bauer
Cooper
Brian
Heaton
Christian
Franklin
Graf
Sherwood
Montreal (the only one we thought would be AT ALL ok for a girl)
Just so you know...these aren't names we actually are thinking of naming any kids, just a fun name game. Any one else have the a similar "theme" idea?

lol, well actually I've done it with brands of ballet and dance apparel (and not Bal-Togs, Eurotard, Danksin, etc.):
Mirella
Gamba
Sansha
Chacott (sha-caht)
Capezio
Leo
Grishko
Gilda (designer is Gilda Marx)
Natalie
Baryshnikov
Triena (Trienawear)
Dasha
I think they're so beautiful, but I wouldn't use many of them as names. I like Natalie a lot. I also think that Mirella is beautiful, I know an adorable girl named Dasha, and I love the sound of Sansha.
It is a fun game :-)

Christian is fine for a girl too. It was a medieval feminine name, being the English form of both Latin Christianus *and* Christiana. I far prefer it on a girl :-)
I think Cooper (for a boy) is nice if it's a family name, and I also like Sherwood. Otherwise they are nms.

that is bad. i felt sorry for a girl i knew called victoria simply because she lived in victoria. but west and aussie is just sad...
and thinking of places, my brother has a friend called Darwin. It just seems weird when you have an association with the place. I could never call a child Adelaide or Sydney.
I think 'hidden' themes better. Like my brother's and mum's names are both welsh meaning valley. But no one notices the connection even though their names sounds are close.
