HelpRe: top 15 names!
in reply to a message by 25vbrandeberry
Axel: figure skating jump. More innovative than Alex, it won't stay that way for long. Axel Valentine.
Caspian: it's an attractive nature name, but I prefer Cassian, though it comes with the possibility of being pronounced CASH-an. Caspian Romulus.
Boston: even Massachusetts feels more serviceable. Boston Michael.
Ellis: languid and lisping. Gets lost among the sea of his sisters named Alice and Alyssa and Elissa. El- names in general need to take a holiday. Eliza and Elias can stay, but they're on thin ice. Ellis Benedict.
Milo: cutesy. The middle ground between a RAF pilot and a teddy bear. Milo Anthony.
Nelson: kiss me, Hardy! Nelson Oliver.
Atticus: it's a shame it's become so popular among hipsters. I think it sounds bright and attractive. Atticus Peregrine.
Daxton: as preppy, smug, and forgettable as Paxton and Jaxton. Daxton Conrad.
Ottilie: definitely more appealing than Otto! I like the English pronunciation (OT-il-ee), but not the German one (aw-TEEL-yeh). Both run uncomfortably close to the Polish word otyłość (obesity). Ottilie Marigold.
Viola: vee-OH-lə is alluring in a melancholy way, vy-OH-lə just makes me think of the instrument. It gets points for being the name of one of my favourite Shakespearean heroines, but it's less appealing than Violet. Viola Sigrid.
Emersyn: I suppose there is some appeal in Emerson on a boy if it's a family surname. Emersyn has none. It looks like a typo. Emersyn Sylvie.
Paxton: see Daxton. Paxton Julia.
Lennon: John. Lennon Beatrice.
Camilla: dignified, but aloof. Camilla Juniper.
Jasmine: this feels garish, reminiscent of Disney princesses and orientalist Halloween costumes. I quite like the Polish form, Jaśmina (ya-SHMEE-na, with a soft sh), though. Jasmine Susanna.
