[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dislike the name Mary.  I have two friends that named their baby girls this.  [/quote]

I also hate the name Alice.[/quote]
Hee hee. I LOVe the name Mary Alice. [/quote]

A little late here, but my cousin is expecting a baby girl in January, to be named Mary Alice.  (My grandmother was Alice Marie, say it with a French Canadian accent for full effect.)   It seems like an old lady name to me, but hey, someday hopefully she will be an old lady.

I really liked Ciara when we were expecting our first - we have an Irish last name and frequent contact with second cousins in Cork and Kilkenny - but it would've been mispronounced and I didn't like "Keira."  Adore the Irish girls' names - Aoife, Siobhan, Eilis, Niamh are lovely - and we used one for a MN, but I think as a general rule if you live anywhere but Ireland, it's just plain mean to name your kids something that will always have to be spelled/pronounced.

But it's your kid, and it's a free country, so do what you want.  We have four kids and I don't know you and couldn't care less what you think of their names.   :P[/quote]
