Guilty Pleasures :)
- Schuyler
Origin:
DutchMeaning:
"scholar"Description:
Originally a Dutch surname, imported by the early Dutch colonists, has been all but overpowered by the phonetic spellings in the US -- Skyler for boys and Skylar for girls. With the surnames-as-first-names trend, however, and the popularity of the Lin-Manuel Miranda's musical Hamilton, which features the Schuyler sisters, perhaps Schuyler might receive some more interest in the coming years.
- Androcles
Origin:
GreekMeaning:
"glorious man"Description:
Mythological name with a fabulous meaning. Sure it's weighty, but so is Aphrodite; Andy is an easy nickname choice to make this name more wearable in the classroom.
- Isabelline
Origin:
Variation of Isabella and color nameDescription:
With the popularity of Isabella, you might think of Isabelline as a further elaboration -- though it would be the definition of gilding the lily. But Isabelline is also a color, an amorphous pale yellow-gray-cream most often seen in horses' coats or birds' plumage.
- Paciencia
Origin:
SpanishMeaning:
"patience"Description:
See PATIENCE.
