Re: The Amazing difference between American and English naming:
in reply to a message by Caroline
Nope..for the most part, American's have no taste in names.
Not to insult Americans or anything, but it's true. When every third child's name is misspelled, the world of classy names as we know it has died.
I like (or would like to comment on)...
Clemency Rose, a sister for Ashley. -cute, but Ashley's highly boring to go with it.
James
Evelyn
Rex John Charles -Rex? Dinosaur name.
Meredith Beatrice Meissa, a sister for Celeste Evelyn
Lyra -Celeste got the better full name. Meredith is for boys.
Cameron Alexander Campbell -wow..poor kids "croked" all around(see meanings if your confused).
Sophie Clare -would have prefered Claire. I can see this one here.
Camilla Susan, a sister for Rosemary, Philippa and
Eleanor. - I ♥ Camilla and Philippa!! I have them as sibs to Estella, but still, nice to see them together. I like Eleanor too.
Madeleine Eloise Scarlett -cute!
Tiger and Joe -wt-?
twins,Thomas and Olivia -nice to see Thomas on a twin.
Clara Lucy, a sister for George and Emma -like Clara and Emma as sisters. George is a dead, imo.
Poppy Eliza, and Thomas Christopher, brother and
sister to Oscar and Elliot. -I like the sister's name.
Daisy Charlotte Marriott, a sister to Grace and Inigo. -Daisy!
Olivia Rose Cameron, a sister for James. -I hate Cameron on a girl. It's even worse in the UK where hardly any girls are named Cameron.
Henry George Egerton, a brother for Arabella. -why did Arabella get a nice name and he get stuck with boring Henry?
Henry Philip Leander -well, I quite like Philip Leander.
Emilia Eden Virginia Stewart -poor girl...I pity you growing up with Eden..not a bad name, but not a nice one either. At least it's her middle name; I hope her parents don't call her by it.
Angus Ross Alexander. -Ross Alexander would have been nicer.
Elizabeth Grace (sn begins with G initials EGG) -poor EGG girl
Elsa Amelia Rose -I used to like Elsa as a full name because it is a pet form, but it's grown on me. Now it's cute.
Kit Benjamin, a brother for Jake. -I like Kit.
Odhrán Patrick Clark -Odhrán niiice
Zara Virginia Rose. -this is nice too
Laurence Sebastian Thomas -love Sebastian.
Hugo Ignatius Watson, a brother for Eloise. -Shakespeare-fan parents?
Sebastian Jose-like Sebastian, but it goes terribly with Jose.
Augustus -nice
Cosmo William, a half brother for Zita, Nyasa and
Charlie. -How on earth did Charlie make it into this sibset?
Sophia Emilée. -nice
Milo Richard Howard playmate for Twinkle. -Hmmm....odd little note, but I like Milo anyway.
Esmé Bridget, a sister for Artie. -I quite like Esme.
Well, actually now that I'm done with that list, it reminded me how much I don't like the British style naming all so much either. Britain has it's trends; America has it's trends and I'll keep my trends separate from both...hehe.
