HelpSome mythology names that I'm liking at the moment
I'm learning about mythology, so I'd thought I'd share some of the names I like.
Female
Asherah - I especially love this because of the meaning.
Acantha
Ariadne
Astraea
Gaia - though I would probably not use this one.
Hecate -
Astarte - A form of Ishtar.
Ianthe
Inanna
Ishtar
Tanith
Eir
Ismene
Siv -
Indira
Tara - tah-ra
Melete - I think this is pro. ma-lee-ta. Anyone know if this is correct?
Nyx - Yes, I know, its unuseable in the US. I still love it
Psyche - Same as above
Thalia
Juno
Male
Osiris
Ravi
Orion - which isn't related to the word urine.
Paris
Evander
Remus
Janus
Lots of these are unusable, but they're still great. Opinions?

I like Ariadne, Thalia, Orion and Paris best. There are many mythology names I love, but sadly, probably will never use because they are "weird" or "unusable".

Also opinions on Bridget.
I just started to love this name. Its decreasing in popularity, and I love the sound of it. I also love the Goddess, and know several people who work with her. So, its an even cooler name. Opinions?

My "little sister"...
... is named Bridgette. I like the name ok... I like that it isn't super common or made up. I don't like that it rhymes with midget.

Thank you.
The fact that it rhymes with midget is out. My family are huge rhymers. I'm called Favy. My niece, Mary Miranda, is called Panda. My nephew, Ikey (short for Isaac) is Bikey. Etc, etc, etc. Bridget, especially if she was short, would be midget forever.

Ironically...
This makes me like the name even more! LOL. I've always loved Bridget. It's also the name of our family dog (who has now passed away). I think 'midget' is a cute term of endearment so I'll probably call my children that anyway... for fun. :) I feel like if you let your children know of silly nicknames when they're younger, than by the time they get to elementary school and kids start teasing, it won't bother them.
Anyway, I think Bridget is adorable even if you're not using it anymore. :)

Good Point.......
I'm still called Salad by my brothers, and I actually don't mind anymore. I'll even sign Christmas presents Salad. I used to hate it though, and wish people would stop calling me those names. However, every teenager goes through that problem.
And I'm in love with Bridget Elise, too. Ken doesn't like it, of course.
ARGH!

I do like Bridget!
Can you help me in my post above ("A dilema. I really need help!") because I don't know what to do. You have a good opinion on things, so can you reply? Thanks a ton! I've always liked Bridget, by the way. :-)
