Re: Star
I think of ponies before strippers. Star is just such a pony name to me. So ...that's either good or bad depending on how you look at things. I'm no sure what kind of middle name would help add some seriousness. Star Lillian, Star Caroline, Star Helen, Star Elizabeth, Star Margaret? Stargaret!!

It makes me think of Greteliese, which no one else likes either :DI might one day have to name a character Stargret if you'll permit me! I'll have to come up with a quirky, funny backstory to justify the name, though.

I can die happy knowing there is a fictional Stargret out there!I really enjoy long-winded mashup names that look old fashioned. Greteliese is great! Also Liselotte, Hannelore, Belphoebe, Christabel, etc. They just immediately make me think of fairy story heroines.

The lovely lady christabel, whom her father loves so well - what makes she in the woods so late, a furlong from the castle gate? She had dreams all yesternight of her own betrothed knight, and she in the midnight wood will pray for the wael of her lover that's far away...Samuel Taylor Coleridge was acutely sensitive to phonetics in general and believed that his name was the ugliest possible combination of sounds. The other characters in Christabel (that I've encountered) are Leoline the father and Geraldine the freaky ass villain. The most beautiful combination of sounds was "Susquehanna."

I love that poem a lot a lot

At one time I read something that stated what Samuel Taylor Coleridge's favorite female names were, but I've forgotten where I read it and what they were. I'm consistently sad because of my negligence in not writing it down.

I love all of those too. I would totally use Liselotte but I don't think E would go for it!I wrote a story with a Christabel in it when I was a teenager. She was a princess who became a sorceress, I think. *fond eyeroll*

Every time I see "Stargret" I have to do a double take to make sure it doesn't say "Stargate".. ;P

Bahaha, Stargaret.Love it. LMAO. XD Do you think it'd work better as a middle name?

I think it fits well with other nature-whimsy middle names, like Wren.Stealing names from your profile:Marina Star (ok, probably too much like Stella Maris, but still cute)
Gloria Star
Jemima Star
Lyra Star
Rowena Star
Nadia Star

I think it could be a fun middle name! It seems more poetic and special in the middle as opposed to when it's out front.
