Baby names

Karl, I'm sorry to tell you that, but not every thread here is for Estonia... ;]

Tell that to esäimä who trolls me in every thread and tries to start a discussion about Estonia/Estonians. I only recommended baby names and then I got bashed from recommending "Swedish names". All of those names are common among Estonians(and have been common for a very long time), I do not view them as "Swedish names".

Of course you Karl are trying to make every thread here about Estonia!You are simply thinking that Estonians are a hyper-nordic masterrace!Oh, what an honour!
I am tired to talk about Estonians all the time.Yes, I am Estonian but I do not consider myself unusual hyper-superman!I am interested in Bulgarians, in Swedes, in Italians as well!But I just had to react to the false facts!

I've always liked the name "Alexandra" (for a girl of course). If it's a boy, please watch this instructional video on naming boys:

I've watched that so many times. It's so true. He's basically identifying one part of the feminization of our culture. Those names like "Tucker" and "Brent" seem like mere symptoms. I have one of the "good" names, haha.

Come to think of it, George is quite a nice name.

Stop shiting on my thread bloody Estonians (Karl). When I want information on Estonia it will be because I am playing ice cricket there. Also seeing all the threads you lot make, don't you think on this forum you should be discussing issues that are relative to the wider European world and not a small Baltic non country!

Indeed, you even asked for Celtic or Anglo-Saxon names! Why is Estonia even in this discussion at all?

Just thought of another Englisc girls name - Avril/Averil (from OE Eoforhild). It's my aunt's name as well as that of some obscure Canadian singer.

Hmm...... Considering the form of Everidge, Erwin, Errol, Everick (Eoforric, Eoforwine, Eoforwulf, Eoforwic), I'm more inclined to view the similarity of Averil to Eoforhild as mere coincidence.

I'd expect Everild or Everill really, but am not even entirely sure if Eofor was an element much applied to women.

No Eofor- name is included in this list, for example;

THese buggers

... claim a 7th Century female saint of the name, but I never heard of one. And at such an early date, you'd think I would have.

But, bugger me...

... Evirilda is the form in the early Latin sources, mind. In later times, this seems to have been contaminated by the form of the far more popular French Avril (April).

I think really, every parent fears for their child at register time too much to give them names that go beyond a certain pale. Edmund you could get away with, Aethelwulf? That'll get some playground blank faces and how do you spell thats.

Osborne could definitely be revived as Osweo said though. Osborne should be revived, it's a great name.
