Re: Slovakian names and a question
in reply to a message by RegalAmethyst
I looked through the list and I like most of them! - I have a thing for Eastern European names, but no connection to them. Are there any Slovakian names in your family that you like?
I live in England right now but I'm Welsh (by birth, and mostly by heritage). I would absolutely use Welsh names if I had kids back home, but if they were likely to go to school here I probably wouldn't, as most of the names I like best would be pretty difficult for a kid to have here. I'd rather use one of the English family names than pick a more easily pronounceable Welsh name that I'm not that fond of, just for the sake of having a Welsh name, if that makes sense.
I'm 25% French and some % that-I-can't-be-bothered-to-calculate German, too. I've never really considered actually using French or German names, but they do feel comfortable and familiar.
