So, dear Inklings, today I have decided to tell you my baby name ideas, not because I think you'll understand, but because I need SOMEONE to tell them to, and you simply have no choice in the matter. MUAH HA HA HA !
- Milo Alaska--Milo is a cool name for me. When I was little, I misheard a song lyric that went "Let my love open the door to your heart" as "Let Milo open the door to your car". So, now I can still hear the part where it says "Let my love" as "Let Milo". So, to me, "Milo" means "My Love". :) Alaska is for the book I'm reading at the moment, not the state. In the book there is a girl named Alaska who, unfortunately, dies. She was a bit of a bad girl, but she was mysterious, intelligent, and strangely appealing. So, I want to name my daughter after her. :)
- Jack Danger--I have always loved the name "Jack". Mainly is because I consider that name to be a tribute to Tim Burton (his character, Jack Skellington is kind, thoughtful, and fun-loving) and Johnny Depp (Jack Sparrow is amazing). I also love the middle name of "Danger" so that my son can always say "Danger? Ha! Danger...is my middle name!" I expect all my kids to be as weird as me, I think....
- Emilynn Wynter--I used to like the name "Emily". I also love "Emily" from Tim Burton's Corpse Bride, and my favorite babysitter's name was Emily. But everyone knows at least four Emily's. So I added "lynn" to the end. Partially because I like the sound, and partially because one of my best friends has that for a middle name and it sounds awesome. Winter is a beautiful season, but I hate the letter "I" and feel like "Y" should get more facetime.
- Charles McCartney--His name would be shortened to Charlie, which is for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which is written by my favorite author. McCartney is for my favorite person. Paul McCartney of the Beatles, who sings all my favorite songs and writes them and I couldn't live the way I do today without him as a major inspiration.
- Violet Wisteria--Violet is from A Series of Unfortunate Events, who is an intelligent girl who loves her family passionately. Violet is also from The Incredibles who is sorta shy, but spunky underneath. It's also a color of purple, which I love. Wisteria just sounds amazing, there's no story behind it. BUT the two names combined is the name of my first successful character I've ever written. Unfortunately, she was in a very lame story, so I just want to name my kid that now. :)
Ben
Atticus
Zeke
Xavier
Jonah
Renaissance
Ember
Willow
Marylen (combination of my grandparents' names)
SO, what names do YOU enjoy? Maybe we can be weird together! Sorry if this post bored any of you, I just had to get the secret out! :D
I figured out how to post again! And I enjoy your names greatly. It's not strange it's artistic! But, unlike your wonderful children my children no matter wot amazing names I think of... will probably end up as Jimmy, Drew, Ally, and May. The names are nice... but lack imagination. I fail at naming... Maybe I should make a list?
ReplyDeleteI really like the names you've picked out there. Like the former poster has stated, they aren't wierd, but creative. I've got some 'odd' names picked out as well. I'm thinkin' of adopting two boys, close to the same age, one of Native american descent, and one of Indian descent. The Indian: Mowgli Baloo. And the Native American: Kioti Wolfe. What do you think?
ReplyDeleteSeven Deadly:
ReplyDeleteYeah, make a list. You get better at thinking of names when you write them down. I started out with "Emily" "Rose" and "Anna". Then it evolved into "Ember" "Rosalynn" and "Anna Jenai". Now, it's what you see above.
Danielle:
Thanks :) I would say that I would, personally, not like the name Mowgli Baloo thanks to the Jungle Book. One tribute is good in a name, but two is sorta too cheesy. I wanted to name my son Fiyero, once, and then I realized he would get beat up. So try not to make beat-up names. I do like the name Mowgli and Kioti, though. :)
