lol...I certainly appreciate the honesty :P1. Looks like somebody's trying to be original and never did it before...What do you mean? Neither name is common where I live, and I wasn't really trying to be origional. I just liked it.2. What's wrong with Cora? I'm still not sure about it, I've only just recently heard it. Is it trendy, or does it have some sort of strange association?3. I take it you find Sonnet Adelaide weird? Any particular reason?4. Thanks for the compliment on Eve Charlotte :)-Lulu

Sorry, I'm in a rather blunt mood at the moment. I'm also not feeling well. Sorry if you took any of that the wrong way. Let me at least explain a bit:1. Sarai Josephine is just a bit to original to me. I perfer 'Sarah' and 'Josephine' is just a tad bit too uncommon for me (note that I didn't say dated).2. There's nothing wrong with Cora, I just don't like it. Kind of like how people just don't like certain named because of its meaning? That's how it is with me, though I have nothing against its meaning.3. A 'sonnet' is a poem. I have never found it used as a name, and I frankly find it kind of... weird, yes, you could say that.4. I did like Eve Charlotte. No lies there. Same with Fluer Anastasia. I liked that one too, though its likely to only be a guilty pleasure.

That's fine. I didn't mean it in a sarcastic way... I wanted true opinions, and that's what I got! Sorry you aren't feeling well :)1. Oh, too origional! I thought you meant that it wasn't origional ENOUGH!
2. Got it on the Cora part. Kind of like my dislike for Halle.
3. I know it's a poem. I like that about it, along with it's sound, but I don't know if I would ever be gutsy enough to use it as a fn!
4. Good!
