Can I start of by saying I only know one of the following, all children:

Leonie

Some of these are hilarious! I forgot (how could I):

My favourite is Truly Scrumptious who a friend taught on teaching placement. Her mother used to come in and complain if staff didn't use her full name.

Others are:

I know an adult Merlin

Our estate agent told us she has a granddaughter called Lincoln. She was very about it.

When I was in hospital after having DS there was a woman on mu ward with twins - a boy called Orion and a girl called Indiana. Their surname was Jones. The mum seemed completely oblivious to the connection.

Josanne. Never met another and I think it 's a beautiful name and really suited the girl. It's unusual but very usable.

I know a boy named Lincoln. It's not common here but it's common in the US I think.

Mine are Mikhila- not Michaela. Maybelle, Lula, Yonder and Pippin. Pippin made me chuckle a bit because I was a Come Outside fan as a child

Have taught:

Rynal

Ariadne (what a name, and she totally lives up to it!)

HalfSpam I was almost an Ariadne!
