Re: If you were a celebrity?
in reply to a message by Millie
I'd still use my favorites, I think. But if I had become a huge publicity addict ... *and* had enough kids to name, that I'd have used up my most favorites? I'd use Mars and Valentine "Val" for boys, and Meret and Shirin for girls. Those are names I wouldn't use as my non-celeb self, but they're names I think would be fun for my kids to have, even if they didn't happen to grow up to be famous talents like myself.
Others I might use, if I were trying to make the most of it for publicity, but avoid giving a kid a name I would hate to go through life with, myself:
Boys - Zephyr, Casca, Dara
Girls - River, Lark, Leith, Dia / Diya
Middle names: Mercury, Diamond; Desiree, Raven ... hell why not Jezebel and Lucifer. OH YEAH, go write about it, tabloids!
