Way out there or no?
| Sat, 11-06-2004 - 10:25pm |
Need some input on choice of names-- I'm liking Teagan Clay for a boy and Meghira Grace for a girl. Do they sound way out there or just a little different. (We're shooting for a little different.) Our other son is Lochlyn Brian (first name pronounced like Loch Ness Monster--Loch--lyn. Any input would be great :)

How is Meghira pronounced? I've never seen it before, and I'm imagining it pronounced "Muh-GEER-uh"

Meghira makes me think two things: someone with a hispanic type accent saying Magilla (as in Magilla Gorilla of Hanna-Barbera fame) or a monster in a Godzilla movie. I can just hear the dubbing into english.. Look out, Maghira just landed on shore! Would you possibly consider Megara (MEG-arah)? It's a nice place name and is also mythologically the name of Hercules' first wife. Very unusual, hardly ever heard but is usable both sound and spelling wise. Plus it's a neat little thing to be named after a mythological figure. Megara Grace would be gorgeous!
Meghira is a little different, but it may grow on me. Is it pronounced Meg-eye-ra? If so, I hope this doesn't sound too harsh, but it is a teensy bit unpleasant sounding. Sorry! Maybe it will grow on me...
Lochlyn is cool. We considered Lochlan but have decided on Lane.
Best of luck to you!
