My grandparent's names were...

Caroline, Samuel, Austin, Ila

I love Ila. Too bad my sister stole it before I could use it for my daughter. We ended up using DH's family's names.

I think they're pretty horrendous, with the exception of the classics like William. Strange how society can change so much about things like this.

Aren't they all "classic"? Except for a couple (Bertha, Mildred) I think they are lovely. Also, some of them are obviously not English names so would sound "horrendous" to you but are probably common in their native country.

Mine: Elizabeth and Arvid/Florence and Harry

DH: Frederico and Alice/Mary and James
