British names
What are some of your favorite British names? By British, I mean any name that you associate with England or that is more popular in England & Wales than the US.For instance, I like Jodie, Maisie, Imogen, Archie, and Poppy.LISTEN TO THE MUSTN'TS
- Shel SilversteinListen to the MUSTN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES
Then listen close to me—
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
