FWIW, I was up in Sedona this past weekend, and found out that Sedona was originally the name of the wife of the founder of the town... her name was Sedona Schnebly. You can still drive on Schnebly Hill Road! Anyway, when the founder got permission to get a post office, he named the town Sedona.

So, if you want to name your daughter Sedona, you can tell people it was a person name before it was a place name!

Well my first thought was Kia Sedona...the car! So I would never do it.

I met a beautiful little girl in Las Vegas, years ago, her name was Sedona, and I loved it. Then they came out with the Kia Sedona mini van, and it lost its appeal for me. Still a pretty name, just not for me.
