Rio for a girl
WDYT of Rio for a girl? What about Reno? Do you think it would sound good paired with a traditional name? Any ideas?Do you think Rio would go good with siblings named Sunny , Iris , and Lorelei? And do you have any good ideas for middle names for these girls? What about boy names that fit the trend?

"Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand...."Rio is the name of a Duran Duran song from the 1980s. I don't like it for a real person, though. Iris would stick out as more reserved and elegant next to Sunny, Lorelei and Rio, which all seem a bit "light" to me. Reno makes me think of the city and the show "Reno 911". Please do not name a child Reno. Rio is just the Spanish word for river so it seems silly as a name to me, but it's better than Reno. Sunny is my cat's name, though it would be a cute nn for Sunniva for a child IRL, I think.

Cecilia is also a name from a song, more well known that Duran-Duran actually. ;) And River is also a fairly popular name. Sorry, just sticking up for Rio because I really like it! :D
