I went to school with sisters named Ginger and Cinnamon.

I think Orion is horrible. Why don't people understand that the middle name is where you get to be creative? Sigh.

I don't mind Orion, but it doesn't go with Noth. The first and last names ending and beginning in the same letter is just wrong.

I knew a Breezy! She's a stripper now, but dances under a much more reasonable name.

Like Jane?

I have to defend Orion, as that's one of my best friend's sons name. He's also a red-head, funnily enough. You would baulk at her other kids names - Eden, Rebel and Boadicea. When I first met her, I thought she must've been shot in the head to give her kids such weird monikers. But now I know them well, they are surprisingly suitable names for the personalities they are matched to.

Eden is actually fairly common and normal, though, isnt it?

Eden and Cruz! Santa Barbara!

I've heard it a lot recently (isn't one of Marcia Cross' twins called Eden?), but I never knew of any Edens when I was growing up. I'd say it's a fairly "modern" name, like Madison. And possibly the least weird of the names of my friend's children.

I have a friend named Eden. She's in her thirties. Of course, my name's Jenna and has been for almost 37 years, so there's no telling what's up with the "modern" names.

I knew an Eden back at camp circa 1994, and she made my life an absolute living hell, so I am not too fond of the name. I do know it must have been floating around the general aether as a name option for a while since she and I were both born in '81.

I haven't seen too many other people with it, however.

My husband unironically loves the name Boadicea. Sadly, our last name is Greek and would sound ridiculous with that 1st name.

I read this at first as "Bodacious," and I was thinking it was pretty ballsy to assume your kid could live up to that term before knowing the kid's personality.

Julianna Margulies had a boy, named Kieran Lindsay Liberthal. I absolutely love the name Kieran.

It's a fine name, but I have to admit that the Irish first name and Jewish last name remind me of something I'd find in my spam box. I get a lot of spam from senders with wildly incongrunent ethnic surnames and first names. Like, Fatimah Jones, Jean-Paul Smith, Juan Sullivan, Sean Ramirez, Montoya Fuji, combinations like that. Nothing 'wrong' with them, just enough to give pause.

I wonder if Lindsay is after someone, I know it used to be a boy's name.

Heh. I know a kid named Kieran Viggiano. His twin brother's name is Luigi. Italian-Irish family, what can you do.
