Need help with names
| Thu, 03-09-2006 - 9:23am |
Suggestions on names please. Boys and girls. I'm afraid the criteria is pretty odd, but here goes.
Cannot start with A,B,E,S,R,J.
We don't like popular/trendy names.
Don't like last names as first names.(Kennedy, Emerson)
Cannot end in 'er'.
Like names to be either masculine or feminine, not both. (ie Taylor)
Don't like names with nicknames that end in ie/y. (ie Caroline..nn Carrie)
I like flower names, but have not found any that work yet.
Siblings are named Shannon, Brian, Erinn Rose and Alexander
ANY suggestions appreciated. Sorry for being so picky, but I've exhausted everything I can think of.

Sorry that is tuff criteria, especially since you only want unisex names.
Or did I misread that. Do you like unisex or not like unisex. Two of your children have unisex names so maybe that is the confusion. Both Shannon and Erinn are unisex.
Wow ... those are some criteria. ;)
I'll give it a shot! I'll try to avoid any popular/trendy/surnamey/A,B,E,S,R,J/-er ones. ;) Sorry if any have already been mentioned.
Morrigan (strictly feminine, but just slightly different than Morgan, which can be unisex)
Fianna
Finola (Nola)
Fiona
Genevieve
Isla
Kerenza
Carys
Devanie/Devony

Also, since you like flower names but haven't found any that work yet, have you considered simply Flora or Fiora, meaning flower/beautiful flower? Just a thought! ;)
HTH! :)

Well my hubby and I have similar stipulations, but we are officially in the girl realm so back at you with your ideas! Thanks!
WOW!
I can't thank you all enough for all the suggestions! I was hoping I'd get one or two responses!
My Shannon and Erinn are both girls... (Aaron is the boy version) but sorry for the mix-up.
I'm so excited to be suggesting, Gretchen, Fiora, Jillian, Gwendolyn, Leah and a few others to DH.
I love Lucas, but isn't it trendy/popular right now??
Killian is already my eldest DS middle name. *giggle* Kyle is my youngest sons's.
Thanks again a million times!
