Yay Finch! This one is always on the outskirts of my mind... it would really probably be higher up on my list if I gave it more thought

It makes me pretty happy. I named my latest character Finch, but I'e loved it for years. :D

So now you must commit to having eleven boys and eleven girls so you can use all of these stunners. Or, if you combine them then it's only five and five, with runner up pets. See how generous I can be?
Fionan is new to me and I'm loving him. Thanks for the pronunciation guide. Loic has been a personal favorite since I saw the movie "Indochine," with Catherine Deneuve. There was a baby baptized as Jean-Baptiste Loic. Heaven.
How sweet are Mabel and Clementine? All of them, really. When you have "sharn" as you pronunciation guide for Sian, you're not actually intending us to pronounce the "r," correct? You're using it in the English/UK way, I presume. Just checking. :-)

I'm pronouncing the R in Siân. As I understand it, it's a cultural dialect in parts of Scotland, but I do know that Siân is also pronounced like the first syllable of Shannon.
The database links to Fionán as Fionnan, if you're interested.
I've never seen Indochine, but I'll see if I can Netflix it.
I'm coming to having most of my boys. We may have to triple name the girls, but I'm sure I can manage.
Thanks.

Interesting! I never considered the Scottish point of view. I've only ever heard it as "shahn" like the Irish boy's name Sean, or sometimes as "shan" (as in Shannon). The "r" is new to me, but just as valid. Thanks!
Indochine is very long and very French. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but I did enjoy it. A good friend of mine is Vietnamese so we were glued to it. If you do see it, I hope you like it, or at least like looking at Catherine Deneuve in gorgeous silks.
