Help[Opinions] Re: BAs
in reply to a message by Kate
Esther Myrtle? Really? I'd like to shake their hands -- good for them!
Noelle Marie -- I know I'm swimming against the stream, but I only like the spelling Noe"l for a girl since that's how the French word is spelled. Marie is rather filler here. Marie Noe"l, on the other hand, would really have made me sit up and take notice.
Virginia Hope -- Sounds like a title to a movie about a Virginia basketball team. But I do like both names.
Charissa Marie -- Charissa is too overly dramatic for me.
Keira Lynn -- If only Ms. Knightly's parents had named their dd the correct Anglicization of Ciara, i.e., Kiera. I only like Ciara /Kiera, or even the Russian girl's name Kira, but not Keira. At least they didn't spell it Kyra.
Esther Myrtle -- Wow. Love it. Myrtle sounds like a cat purring to me.
Nathan Levi -- I love Nathaniel, but not Nathan. I don't know why. Levi reminds me too much of jeans.
Christopher Daniel -- Great combination.
Carson Paul -- Only if Carson is from their family tree. Paul is nice.
William Allen -- William is nice, but is going to need a serious rest soon. Allen is OK if that is how a family surname is spelled. Otherwise, as a given name it should be spelled Alan.
Grant Windham -- Too "surnamey" for me. Unless these are family surnames, they do nothing for me.
Jonathan Robert -- I prefer John. It's nice to see Robert for a change. It's been in hiding with Edward for a while.
Isaiah Ross -- Very nice.
I usually have to break out the anti-depressive medication when I see a BA list. But this is a nice list overall. May I ask what area you got it from? Did you give all of the names as listed, or did you toss out the more controversial ones? Just wondering.

I think you meant Kira is the feminine form of Kirill, which is the Russian form of Cyril. I don't know why this site doesn't mention that. It says Kira is a form of Kyra, but Cyril and Cyrus are two different names.
Grand Duchess Kira Kirillovna of Russia was a famous bearer. Her name was usually transliterated as Kyra, though.
