Isobel or Mia. :-)

Don't worry about those women... they just do that because it makes them feel better than everybody else. I have had such a reaction with my son's name. They were talking about his name but did not...

I love the names Isabel, Ariella and Charlotte, so I would pick one of those three.

I have read on the web about a Carice who's name is made from parts of the names Caroline and Alice. It's a very uncommon name in the Netherlands, but because of the actrice a lot of babies are now...

My name is scandinavian and lovely if you live there, but the name sounds very harsh in other countries: Solveig. I just wish my mom had picked another Scandinavian name such as Tova, Liv or Lovisa.

There is a Dutch actrice called Carice (Ka-reese) van Houten. I like the name.

It does happen, although a lot of people don't even want to pronounce my given name. But if they do know my name, they always tell me how it should be pronounced. It's annoying... I know about five...

I have legally changed my name. I had no middle name and my name was very hard to explain. I would read it everywhere and hear it on the radio (shampoo commercials) but it was not meant for me. I...

Soren is a swedish boys name.

Sollilja (icelandic:Sol is sun and lilja is lily)
Solvi
Soley (used in Scandinavia and Australia)

I once read that Noa means wave in Hawaiian but I am not...

I would choose Ashley over Adolf. Having said that... my dad's third name actually is Adolf. He was born five months after the second world war and he and his family hated nazi's. It had something to...

Vivienne Maple and Eli Benjamin would be my choices. I like french names and we picked Amelie for our third, but it turned out we were having a boy. Maple because we live in Canada and when we had...

I love Ira. Noah also has an -a ending and is accepted as a boys name.

I read the two names differently: Vivian as Vivi-uhn and Vivienne more like french: Vivi-anne.

Morrison after Jim Morrison.

Rifka, which I would have liked more than the actual name they chose for me.

River is my son's middle name. I would have loved it as a first name, but my husband didn't dare having to tell his grandma... She would have been very negative about this name, but she has been...

I just picked another name for myself and had it officially changed to Liv. It took me a while to come up with a new name but this one sounds nice, the meaning is lovely and has a connection to my...

I did consider it, since there are so many family members with Ma- in their names, but we decided against it. My youngest does have my late mom's initials but I don't think our family even noticed...

Love them all!
My fave is Violet.

My birth name is Solveig, although I am not of Scandinavian descent. My mom had a friend by that name. Do you know if there are any nicknames used for Solveig? Thanks.

How come Sol isn't considered Norwegian? Solveig is a Norwegian name. Did Sol come from Latin and is -veig just added to it?

My daughter is Zoe Victoria. Another option was Zoe Elise. We considered Zoe Isabel too.

I have a son called Julian and we nicknamed him Jules, but the french way. (Jules Verne?)
I actually wanted to name him Julius but my hubby was against it... His second name is River.

I would go with Viggo, or I actually already did almost 6 years ago when my son was born. I didn't mind the Viggo Mortensen connection although he wasn't named after him. We have had no problems with...
