Re: choose your favourite
in reply to a message by Katie
Cassandra, Cassia, & Charisse are girl names I'd favor, and Toby would be interestingly unique yet charmingly casual as well. Amaryllis & Briseis would be welcome additions to the male repertory, bearing in mind that Amaryllis may be nicknamed "Mary" and that Briseis may be nicknamed "Bree" or "Bris". There would always be a few boys by the name of Mary or Mary/Marie derivatives. Constance is fine but I wonder about the possible nicknames of "Connie" - otherwise "Stan". Carol is already somewhat of a common name for boys. My favorites are Cassandra, Cassia, and Toby; as well as Amaryllis (I would welcome this as a boy's name!) - as well as Briseis: Carol already is a great name for males.
