[Opinions] Re: Boys...Twins...WDYT??
in reply to a message by LL
I really like Linus--it's got definite class. People will be all "It's too much like the Peanuts character!" but Linus Van Dam was a fantastic little kid. Smart, sweet, and he knew his scripture backwards and forwards. :) Better him than Lucy, really--though Schroeder was my favourite. Griffin just makes me think of Family Guy, but I think it's got a nice sound.Draco is all right, but it's completely and utterly tied to Harry Potter and will be for a long, long time. If the fact that people will associate your boy's name with a nasty, mean little bugger from a children's series doesn't bother you, go ahead with the name. Morley has no meaning to me, but it's got a nice sound.I think that my main complaint would be that all of your names are two syllables long. I know it's hard to come up with really attractive boys' names that are longer, but I personally prefer combos with different lengths. I think I would make them Atticus Morley, Draco Algernon, and Linus Theodore, myself. I'm not sure how the middle names would fit with your tastes, but I think those combos are all very dashing.In all, very good names! *golf clap* I like them a lot.Array

Thanks...I wasn't sure what the reaction would be. Most people don't like the names I am serious about...as for Griffin, now I don't care for it since you mentioned Family Guy. That show disgusts me!!! I only liked it because of the meaning. Since Draco meant dragon I thought Linus should have a stroung animal name meaning too. But I do really like Atticus Morley...
