    DH says No but I think its kind of cute....

    What do you think? It's not like her last name would be "Batman"!

    Holly Toledo

    Too much like "Talulah Does The Hula From Hawai" i?

    Hmmm. Not sure I would, either!

    Mind you, in our family it's me who puts the brakes on names - most recently trying to dissuade M from "Tripitaka".


    Yes, as in Monkey Magic.

    I agree with your DH, it might be cute on a little kid, but as a teenager and adult I don't know if she'll thank you for it.

    um ... quite frankly, no its a silly idea. She'd go through life as a joke, do you really want that for her?

    that's up there with something I heard a little while ago. A couple used the first three letters of their fathers first names for their sons middle name ... HARry and DONald ......this was not a joke and it never occured to them how it sounded. Poor kid!!

    i actually think it sounds really nice, it definitely flows really well together....but, can i ask, is there a connection or a reason for using Toledo? As in, have you been there before, or it means something special? otherwise....why use it? i dunno, only coz we live in Australia, i don't get how people use American places as names, like Dakota or Savannah or Montana or something....i think it's a bit weird, but maybe it's just me?

    at Hardon.....oh my gosh, that's just insane! it's like the classic Richard Cranium or Mike Hunt or something....

    I like Holly, but if I were to see that name, I would probably automatically say Holy instead itms, like I did when I opened this thread.
