Apparently...

I don't know why but I'm always drawn to names that are either Russian or celtic in origin. They just seem so solid but poetic to me.

 

You ever watched "Fawlty Towers" Beth? Do you refuse to call the lead character "Bay-sil" despite the way we pronounce it?

Everyone American I know bar Andrea has pronounced it Bay-sil... bleuughh

 

my cousin's daughter is called Anya. She's 6 and at a wedding she decided to be my assistant and told me which pics to take and made me explain everything. Bless, I wanted to kick her across the room.

 

Jad-zee-yah???


Feckin hell....yo!

So Solid Crew feat. Jadzia...

Get a grip! LOL


EDIT: LOL @ Chet

 

aww sweet

 

I would like to call my daughter (if I have one) Susan. Just always liked that name.

I've not thought about boy names.

 

That's so cute, Chet. I think she has a crush on you.

 

you cannot knock Ern as a name i'm sorry its a great name

 

/one raised eyebrow at Cass
I like that name

 

Yeah well I knew you would think that!

Tough...we can call one of the plants Ernest.

 

What about Percy? There's a great English name for ya. And Basil. Soorrrryy...Baaazil...

 

its alot better than naming one of your children after a fictional charicter either star wars or startrek

My grandad was called Ernest tis a fine name i may even call my son ern ( middle name at least)

 

I hate to admit it but I agree. Good news is there are sooo many names to choose from that Ernest can still be the plant!

 

Jadzia [YA-dzyah]
Jadwiga [ya-DVEE-gah]

a - always pronounced [ah]
i - always 'ee'
w - always 'v'

 

wow that was hard for my to pronouce, I think I'll stick to Spanish

 

That's kind of how I was thinking GGB. I have a couple of other Polish mates

 

Blast! I had hoped I'd be a bit more exotic to you all.

 

On the subject of names from ST/SW... I've always liked the name Leia and it might get used for a name for one of my kids/cats.

You could always use Padme or Padma. Means 'lotus' - think it's a buddist name.

I've seen Arwen used as a name (They're on one of my work lists ) so that's not out of the question!

Personally I'm plumping for the name 'Trinity' for a daughter. I just think it's such a cool name... and 'Patrick' for a boy... just to keep the family quiet

 

know the feeling.... for some reason all of my mum's side of the family have this thing with all the girls have to have the middle name Hamilton. Maybe that's where my family are from before they went to Glasgow....I dont know
