Just a fun thread! what's your favourite name after a country or city?

mine would most likely be Florence, Dallas, Dakota or Adelaide for a little girl 💕

or..

Mason, Hudson, Orlando or Phoenix for a little boy 💙

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Devon or Nairn for a boy.

But which came first place name or person name?

E.g. Orlando was a person name first (was in Shakespeare).
Ditto Adelaide.

Names after places: Frances/Francis/Francesca.
