    our neighbours named their girl twin Emilia and I really like it, especially because Amelia has gotten so popular of late, it's still a way to have the same sounding name but still different.

    I really like Sinbad.

    Ahhh I don't care really. All my kids are going to be known as Your Honour, Doctor or Professor anyway, so who cares what their first name is.

    Love it Nelle

    Slightly off topic but when considering names I have been going through the following process
    * <name I like> mmm that is a nice name
    * how would I spell <name>
    * mmm how does Doctor <name> surname sound... oh, what about <name> surname, esq etc etc etc

    yes I must be a loon

    Ok, back on topic

    we too have spelt the winkies names as they sound in the hope that people will be able to say it without too much heart ache... but that hasn't stoped people saying Jayden, or Mickala ( sorry I cant spell it correctlly which I know will annoy most of you ) and with poor bubba girl nobody ever gets her name... I mostly introduce the winkies with there names and when I get that blank look I will say for now you can just call them Zay May and Kai... But once people get used to saying the winkies names it rolls of the touge as easily as Jane.... or at least I think they do...

    Haha, my only 'test' is where I screech the name to see just HOW bad it will sound when I'm calling for them.
