Spanish or Latino sounding first name?
| Sat, 12-02-2006 - 4:06pm |
My last name is Jimenez. Pronounced he-men-ez. My husband is from Panama. I want some first names that work with our last name, maybe even have a Spanish flare. I don't want names that people can't pronounce correctly in English or without an accent. (No Jose or Roberto etc..) We don't know the gender, so we are finding favorites on either side. I like original names and a little different, but I want it to flow with out last name! Let me know if you have any suggestions!!

I love a lot of the names with some Spanish/Italian flare, and I think they sound great with your last name.
Hope this gives you a few more ideas!
