What do you envision...

When we hear a name, we automatically envision what that person might be/look like if you've never seen him or her.

I can't do them all, because not every name conjures up anything for me, but this is what I've got...
BOYS:
Trevor: A lot preppy, a bit spoiled...if I were naming Dr. Chase on "House," he'd be a Trevor.
Isaac: Down-to-earth, a bit burly...more country if he's called Ike, more city if he's called Zack.
Brendan: Preppy again, though less spoiled.
Caden: Under the age of eight...
Alexander: This is the kind of name I don't have an image for, because it's so familiar.
Drake: A bit proper, but very manly. The kind of character Ralph Fiennes or Richard Gere would play in a romantic comedy where they learn to loosen up.
Chase: I had a student named Chase who was preppy and effete, so that's what comes to mind.
GIRLS:
Autumn: My cousin. A bit shy, a bit "young" for her age (which isn't to say immature...just young,) a bit quirky.
Skye: A free spirit.
Lexie: Preppy, a bit snobby, maybe to the point of being mean.
Miranda: I don't really have anything for this--it's too classic to stereotype.
Addison: Preppy again, but fighting to stand out against all the other Addisons out there, so perhaps being a bit emo while wanting to be preppy.
Skylar: I don't have anything for this.
Reese: On a girl? Under the age of eight.
These are just my first associations . . .
Trevor: Athletic, blonde
Isaac: Skinny neck, smiley, laughing all the time
Brendan: Pretty eyes, quiet
Caden: into everything, mess-maker
Alexander: (Alex) hyper active, blue eyes
Drake: dark hair, kinda dorky, rockstar when he gets older
Chase: healthy eater
GIRLS:
Autumn: Brainy, subdued
Skye: Popular at school, too popular with boys sometimes
Lexie: cheerleader, funny
Miranda: quiet, brown hair, skinny
Addison: (draws a blank for me)
Skylar: Like Skye
Reese - pretty, sassy, breaks rules
I hope I don't make you mad :)
