Romy (b) & Waterfall
I taught a boy named Romy (RO-mee) a year or so ago, Its really grown on me alot.So much so my new sim family consists of:Romy (father)
Trista (mother)
Raphael (son)
Antonia (daughter)Do you think Romy could still work on a boy? Romy's mother said that it was the name of her grandfather and it had been used several times in her family for males.Also what do you think of Waterfall as a mn for a boy or a girl? Im searching for more water names to add to my lists.Bex

I suppose Romy works fine on a boy but I prefer it on a girl. Trista has an outdated feel to me - as if it was invented in the 70s (or 80s?) but never really caught on - but it's pretty enough.Raphael sounds very snotty to me, because I met a very bratty child with that name once. Antonia is very elegant.Edit - Forgot Waterfall. It's not for me, though ... I couldn't help but laugh if someone told me their mn was Waterfall, and that's not the reaction a mn should provoke, ideally.

I know a man called Romy and a baby boy called Romy. Both are from Eastern European families and are named after relatives called Roman (Hebrew names Abraham, pronounced Avrom where they came from).I think anyone called Waterfall - especially a boy - would be in for alot of teasing connected with bathrooms!

Romy is okay, but it's not really my style. I think it would work better on a boy than a girl.Trista is okay. I don't like nor dislike it.Raphael is nice but only with the nn Rafe.Antonia is very pretty but not something I'd ever use.Waterfall is iffy for me. Using it as a middle name makes it slightly more appealing.
