Nice Names !

[Kimi]

My tree is full of Joseph's, Joseph William's, Caroline's and Caroline Charlotte's.  With the odd Maria, John and Elizabeth thrown in.  It gets very complicated when they're all named after one another. They've all got  numbers instead now............

Hi again Jan,

thanks for the interesting explanation of of your name.

I think it's lovely and only the uneducated would consider it to mean two faced! - you tell 'em Janus!

Darcy

[June Marie]

Wouldn't be Cherry would it Mrs. Lizzie, if so, it's a nice name in my book.

I nearly called my son Christopher Robin  but thankfully my husband had more sense.  Well I was very young 

I hated my name at school and at 8 years of age started a new school, I registered myself as Felicity.  My mother and
aunt went to a parent's evening and when the teacher
referred to me as Felicity they looked at each other, I
just wished the floor would open up  -  I had some
explaining to do when we got home 

Recently found an Amelia on my father's side, I like
that.

My great great grandmother was Sarah Sofia which is very pretty - my great aunts were called Flantan and Fulantua!!!  Is MissLizzy's name Nancy - she was a bit of a tart in Oliver Twist.

Looking for the marriage of someone else on Free BMD just came across this young lady - well I presume she's female..

Peachy Chambers, how sweet !

Wish I'd known about my ggrandmother's name, Keziah, in time to have passed it on to one of my daughters - however one of them is the sixth generation of Elizabeth - just don't shorten it!

Wonder why Queen Victoria's name didn't seem to catch on - I've hardly ever come across it in my searches.

I have come across a few Adelaides in my tree, can be shortened to Adela. I think that is a nice name for a girl   ...  but I don't have any daughters.

[Keith Sherwood]

My maternal grandmother's family name is Gurner, and my brother was christened Marcus Timothy Gurner Sherwood.  However, when still rather young and unclear about the precise nature of his forenames he was asked by another little friend of his what the M.T.G. stood for.  He was heard to announce proudly:
"I'm Marcus Timothy Grandma Sherwood...."

One of the nicest names (or so I think!) is one of my gr gr grandfather's who was called Gaius.  I really like that.  However his middle name was Diana, I wonder if he got teased at school.
