[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think these are lovely names! I have an adult cousin named Vivienne and am glad to see it coming back a bit. I think its WAY less pretentious/strivery to give your children nice, longer, formal-sounding given names than it is to randomly select other people's surnames as given names (Hadley, Addison, etc). But then again I am torn between Priscilla and Gloria as my baby's middle name so I like fancy names!![/quote] I don’t get the “use a last name as a first name” trend, unless it’s a family name. [/quote] Exactly, a family name no matter the origin is great. Random waspy sounding names that you pick bc you think it sounds classy is super pretentious and lame (There are SO many: Grayson/Greyson, Hudson, Landon, Easton, Colton, Sawyer, Parker, Jameson; Harper, Madison, Riley, Addison, Everly, Emerson, Hadley, etc) [/quote]
