[Actually, "Ilyssa" doesn't seem too bad. Just sounds like a spin on "Alyssa." How is "Parisa" pronounced? I don't like Elias. Pronouced by a Spanish person it could sound like "Alias," which isn't a name you want to have. xp Jennifer, Ben and Alex are a bit boring and common. 3nodding But that doesn't mean they wouldn't have a significance for her.]

Dude, I know diffrent names.
My name is Akudo, yeah so they arent too diffrent to me.
I'm just saying, and seriously I wasn't talking about "ghetto" names as you put it thirdeye.
This kid in my classes name is Zebulan and he's anything but the sterotype of "ghetto".
I'm just asking what happened to all the traditional names.

["Good riddance," perhaps...? Maybe it's time for thos Biblical names to take a rest for a few decades. Then if they are re-introduced in the future, they will be unique. surprised ]

That's how I see it... How many Matt's.. James', Davids, etc. do you see in your classes...? I think Zebulan is pretty... there are original names... and then names you should just steer clear of like 'Bonequisha'. lol [/align

traditional names are boring as hell. even some of the non-traditional names are boring. elias, btw, isn't all that 'eclectic'.

my cousin is planning on naming her baby daughter Tiffany, and i am really upset about that. sorry to anyone whose name is Tiffany, but i really don't like it. i know, i know, it's her kid...

but there's always Taina, Talia (dew from heaven), Taima (crash of thunder), Taja (to mention), Tendai (be thankful to God), hell, there's Theresa! so why Tiffany?
stressed
okay, i'm done...
