Re: What are your favorite Spanish names?
in reply to a message by mayflower
My favourites are:
Amparo
Antonia
Beatriz
Eloísa
Leonor
Olalla
Perla
Sabina
Lucía (I'm biased though)
Álvaro
Cayetano
Efraín
Ezequiel
Maximiliano
Óscar
Jaime
Julián
Sebastián
Javier (I just really like the nickname Javi)
The ones I think could really work in English (trying for ones with no accents or major pronunciation differences) are:
Antonia, Leonor, Sabina
Ezequiel (this sounds a million times better in Spanish than English, but oh well), Maximiliano (Emiliano works, too)
