Name Your Kids

[Eugenia Gabrielov]

OK guys, so there are exactly 10 hrs and 55 minutes until the Kickoff broadcast (maybe less when I finish the post). And since I am angsty with nothing to do, I figured I'd find out what everybody wants to name their kids. Why not? Though I probably won't end up with 20 kids, here are my Top 10 and explanations.

So, a survey question about naming kids totally got me stuck the other day. In honor of that question, I would like to present the names I plan to give to my kids, and yes I know some seem wierd. So I like unique names...

If it's a boy,

10. Dobry (awesome Russian name)
9. Emmett (Name of a friend)
8. Tobias (Sounds so cool)
7. Dagan (Irish maybe? I heard it somewhere)
6. Tiernan (Irish, I think. Awesome name.)
5. Kearney (Irish, I think. Awesome name.)
4. Tybalt (Ever read Romeo and Juliet?)
3. Sebastian (Just sounds so cool from many sources)
2. Dmitrii (Russian - my brother's name)
1. Fabrizio (Coolest name ever. Also one of the Strokes guys)

If it's a girl,

10. Vashti (Ridiculously cool sounding.)
9. Maitane (Ridiculously cool sounding.)
8. Neroli (Ridiculously cool sounding.)
7. Etain (Irish? Very very cool sounding.)
6. Mindel (Not sure of origin, but sounds cool)
5. Kalanit (Hebrew - sounds awesome)
4. Iris (Sounds cool)
3. Tamar (Hebrew - one of my favorite names)
2. Afton (Some English river, also a sweet name)
1. Quincy

Now - everybody has been complaining that I put Quincy as a girl's name. Everyone says it's for boys only. One of my best friends, a very Irish female (you know, tiny green-eyed redhead with insane temper), is named Quincy. In honor of her...Quincy is my top female name.

Maybe this thread is cheesy, but I don't mind.
