[Opinions] Names, place names, and BA's
I'm thinking about the following names recently - what do you think of them?
Miriam - I used to dislike this, but I've read it a lot on BtN recently and I'm warming to it a lot and think it's rather cute.
Naga - not in the database, but it's the name of the newsreader I see every morning. I don't know where she's from or anything. I don't like the name at all, and can't really imagine why anyone would use it? It's pronounced just how it look - NAG-er. Like Nagger.
Natalie - I used to love it, but now I'm getting bored of it.
Sukie - not sure what I think about it's been coming up recently.
Place names - I like India, Holland, America, Memphis. What place names (if any) do you like, and do you think they're usable?
Edward Erik Eungyeol - a birth announcement I came across. I thought it must be some sort of typo. Any thoughts or pronunciation suggestions?

Eungyeol
Miriam - like it a lot. It's very warm and friendly-sounding
Naga - doesn't really appeal to me, but maybe it did to her parents
Natalie - okay, but a bit dated
Sukie - my sister (short for Susanna), can't really judge it objectively, but I'm glad it's not her full name.
I like a lot of local place-names from the part of Wales I'm from, referring to islands, lakes, counties & such, but not really any from further afield - they'd have to have meaning for me.
Eungyeol is Korean. I can't use the key here to describe the pronunciation, but if you put 은 결 into google translate and press the speaker icon, you can hear it.
BAs: nice to see Marina, Vivien & Marguerite, amusing to see a baby Algernon, interesting to see Malise (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%A1el_%C3%8Dsu)
& erk, not another Tarka!

Thank you very much. Just knowing more about a name enables me to warm to it. I even slightly like it now.
