Adam- Okay, not my favorite
Bryan- I know 2 annoying kids named Bryan (actually, one is Brian), so that spoils Bryan for me right there
Elaine- Okay, I guess
Miranda- I really like this name; Shakespeare used it!
Naomi- Okay, not my favorite
Nick- If it's short for Nicholas (not Nickolas) I like it
William- Okay, not my favorite_________________________________________________

I was actually named for the moon of Uranus, which blew up and yet came back together again. Mom saw it on a Nova episode and liked it. But since Uranus's moons are all named after Shakespeare's characters...Although the name Admiranda is attested to in 1231/32 (http://snipurl.com/8wbl), Shakespeare probably invented Miranda independently c. 1611 for his play The Tempest.And that was probably much more than you ever wanted to know, lol.

what kind of nicknames do you get from Miranda besides Mira or Randi? Just wondering. It's one of my favorites.
