    Folks in my culture at least use surnames as names or middle names at times in order to acknowledge the merging of two families.

    My favourite girls names are:
    1. (H)Elena/Ellen (Greek- "light or bright").
    2. Irene/Eirene (Greek- peace).
    3. Patricia (Roman- noble).
    4. Martina (Roman-war-like).

    Others worth considering:
    Helga (Old norse-holy).
    Malva (Greek-delicate).
    Ethel (Old English-noble).
    Ada (Old German-noble).

    It should have been mackenȝie. But we binned the letter Ȝ and lazily substituted it for the Letter Z in it's place. It should have been pronounced like "Mackaingye" .

    But all these Surnames were first names at some point usualy.

    If I lived in an anglophone country I would probably choose: Alan and Willian for males, Gwen and Kim/Kimberly for girls.

    I adore the name Kim! <3 It is so sweet. Maybe I have to change my name in this.
