When I was a young teen I use to love the name Melisha, until my parents told me about militia.

Wendy. I couldn't use it now because it's, well, ghastly.

Rio. After the boyfriend in this cartoon

Arnold. Influenced by Arnold in Different Strokes. Hmm

OMG. Me too Lynette, huge jem fan and really fancied Rio.
I did name a goldfish after though. :)

Maya.....was very unusual 30 years ago, but now, not so much.
