Re: NOTD: There's only one...

  • Demi and Mila are ok, but I wouldn't use either. I like Keanu, but there is only one Keanu so I'd never consider it. I do like Rush though.

  • No to all. Mila is okay, but I don't really care for how it sounds. Viggo isn't bad, just too ethnic or something. Maybe better for a dog.

  • Demi - NMS

    Rihanna - No, NMS.

    Mila - Cute, but my ex named his daughter this.



    Keanu - I already know someone with this name, and it's NMS.

    Rush - All I can think of is Rush Limbaugh (sp?), so no. Just no.

    Viggo - Kind of like it, but would never use it.

    Demi - Jim has a cousin named this and there is NO way in hell I would ever name a child after her. 

    Rihanna - I always loved the name Rianna growing up, because I wanted my brother Ryan to be a girl. :)  This is close, but nothing we would use. .

    Mila - I would not mind it on someone else's child.  But I don't think we'd use it. 



    All the boy names; NOpe.

  • DH would probably like Rush, but I don't think so... None of the rest are our style...

  • I like Mila a lot. I don't think DH is really a fan though.

    Demi is nice, but NMS.

    I could never use Rihanna. I'm not a fan.

    Rush isn't too bad, as far as unique names go, but I think I'd have to fake like it if anyone I actually know were to use it.

    Keanu is just so loaded at this point. Unless maybe you're actually Hawaiian. I don't think anyone else could really get away with using it.

    Viggo is neat, and I've considered it briefly in my head, but I don't think we'd actually go for it. I'd probably like it for someone else, though.
