Help[Opinions] MN for Zaire [girl] + Random BA's [last post]
I recently saw a little girl named Zaire who's 6 on TV. I never really liked Zaire for a name, until now. It's silently been growing on me for a few weeks, and I decided I like it a lot.
Any MN suggestions for Zaire on a girl? Zaire supposedly means ""the river that swallows all rivers".

I've not really though of Zaire as a girl's name, I've only seen it used on boys, I think. "The river that swallows all rivers" hmmm. Sounds vaguely menacing? I have seen Zaira used for girls occasionally. Zaire Patricia? Zaire Louise? Zaire delphine?
Cylier: easily morphs in my mind to "sly leer."
Gibson Cimxeeb: Gibson Typo, to his friends. What in god's name is aCimxeeb?
Ledge: What's the appeal here?
London Lynn: Drag Queens United in Sisterhood, Local 123.
Pauley Pasquale: Oooh, very Mafia! And rhyming too!
Bo Zoe: Bo Zoe Knows...
Divinity: Like having a kid named Fudge. This family certainly thinks they're special.
Grace Kelly: Both names are fine, but celebrity names in their entirety are not very attractive.
Lei Loni Eva Lee: Leilani evilly swiped the Skittles out of Tommy's lunchbag, then denied she had done it. Leilani is so pretty, why'd they have to spell it this way?
Lovelyn Tagiisioulima: That first name is a hooker name. The second, I don't know if it even is a name.
Flores: That's a last name!
Ivoriana Rose: At least it's a little less obvious then Ivory Rose, but it's more of a mouthful.
Edna: Good God, she sounds like she's a nursing home resident.
Amber Jewell: Another stripper name.
xoey: They just did that so it would start with x.
Princess Hazra Wahine: Again with the trashy Princess. Seems to be one in almost every list of ba's. I seem to recall from a book that Wahine is a not very flattering Hawaiian term for a woman?
Chasity: Spelling it wrong just doubles the trailer-trash factor.
Heaven-Leigh Trinity: I'm surprised they didn't add Faith or Grace on the end of it. This is so tacky.
Hunter Savannah: Safari, anybody?
DrewAnn Devlin: Drew the devil right in, didn't they?
Cylier: easily morphs in my mind to "sly leer."
Gibson Cimxeeb: Gibson Typo, to his friends. What in god's name is aCimxeeb?

I've seen it rarely on a girl, yeah the meaning is kind of freaky, I do like it cause it has rivers in it, but eek it does sound a bit mean. I don't know if that's the true meaning, as a I found that meaning on Wikipedia.com. Zaire Delphine is gorgoeus! :), thanks for the suggestion.

We had a baby girl at work named Zaire (not sure of mn, but she had a brother named Keeanu :-/). I don't care for it on either gender.

Edna Johanna is nice. I stopped reading the birth announcements though. They were depressing me too much.
Zaire, pronounced, "zah-EER," like the country? It's as valid as any other place name and at least it isn't Zara (which has always bugged me for some unknown reason.)
Zaire Olivia
Zaire Emilia
Zaire Johari
Zaire Natalia
Zaire Anais ("ah-nah-EECE")
Zaire Dominique
Zaire Veronique
Zaire Gabrielle
Zaire Emmanuelle
Zaire Alexandra
Zaire Demetria
Zaire Artemisia
Zaire Elena
Zaire Estella

Yes, we pronounce the country similarly I suspect. (The long "i" sound is a dipthong made up of "ah" + "ee," by the way.)

oh I see! thanks, lol, that makes sense. :) I agree abour Zara by the way.
