Giselle -- I agree. It makes me think of the ballet. What's the celebrity reference? Is it a hot name for celebs to call their children?

---

Carmen -- Yes, although the opera comes to mind before Ms. Electra.

---

Marilyn -- Sorry, I prefer Norma (another opera reference, now that I thik of it.)

---

Tara -- OK.

---

Michelle -- OK.

---

Beyonce -- Sorry, I like her, but not her name. It has a pretty sound to it, I'll grant you, but I have the sneaking suspicion her parents strayed into kre8tyv territory.

---

Celine -- Yes. A very elegant name.

---

Angelina -- Angelica has more class, to me.

---

Tyra -- OK.

---

Eva -- Love this one. Very elegant and timeless.

---

Jude -- Very chic and sophisticated.

---

Brad -- Sorry, this name has never done much for me.

---

Usher -- Someone who brings me to my seat. Asher, now there's a name!

---

Elijah -- Yes, very exotic and earthy at the same time.

---

Orlando -- I know the Virginia Wolff connection should make me give this name a second chance, but I just can't get the word "gigolo" out of my head when I hear this name. I prefer its variant Roland (Chanson de Roland, anyone?)
