[Opinions] Re: John
in reply to a message by Jeana the Earth Goddess
Yay. I love the name John. Overly used in the past, I think he doesn't get enough attention any more. People say it's high in the charts, but I rarely see it discussed on baby name boards.
John Eldon would be a nice way to honor your father. An "Elton John" image kind of takes it over though.
John Whitney -- Too bad Whitney has become a spoiled rich girl name, in my mind at least. See? This is why I hate people indiscriminately using other people's surnames as fns.
John Ernest -- Great combination, it honors your family, and subtley honors one of my favorite authors, Oscar Wilde and "The Importance of Being Earnest." This one gets the thumbs up from me.
I came up with John Garbhan / Garvan by chance yesterday. It's been rattling around in my head all day. Maybe you would like it too. Other than that, my usuals are:
John Graham ("GRAY-um")
John Matthias
John Sebastian
John Cornelius
John Bartholomew
John Emeric
John Cormac
John Esmond
John Gareth
John Magnus
John Edmund
Do you like any of these?
