I'm sorry, I am, but now that I've ditched Blanchard I am being drawn to the name Dragon

oooh I've got merlin on my list too.

I also like Orpheus.

Not sure about Dragon (reminds me of what we used to call out teacher 'old dragon')

Maybe use it as a second name?

How about Merlin?

I'm liking the names, Samson and Zeph

MayorNaze · 18/04/2009 15:41

i like blanchard and dragon

so i am no help here if you want a voice of reason...

LetThemEatCake · 18/04/2009 15:38

I really like it and considered it for my first dc. So there.

Then I reconsidered and thought about it as a 2nd name - Finn Dragon

but then, my children are called Phoenix (girl) and Cassian (boy)

And now that I am pregnant again I am liking Aslan, Samson, Griffin, and Zeph for boys.

so I will join the club of lost causes with you. Proudly.

You can tell I need help, yes? Good!

I have been appreciative of some very good suggestions over the course of several threads but I cannot be converted to conventional wisdom.

I just need my madness tempering a little.

So...Rafferty, what?

I may need to pick a surname too.

Three first names a likelihood, so the zany one can go at the end.

You see, I like that Moon Unit name. This is where I am coming from. But I am not quite gone enough or selfish enough to do that degree of silliness to this baby.

Use it only if you change your real surname to Hobbgoblin

paolosgirl · 18/04/2009 14:06

Please tell me you are not being serious!

MrsMattie · 18/04/2009 14:06

Yes. There is no way to advise somebody who thinks Dragon is a good name for a person.

nancy75 · 18/04/2009 14:06

are you serious?
