Sibling for Polly- comprehensive musical knowledge required!

[BeanCalledPickle]

Dd is Polly because we were listening to Nevermind and said 'that's her name!'

Now she will have a sibling. It's really important to us to have a name from music. Girl we are thinking Luna - last track on Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream. Possibly Chloe - Motherlovebone.

Our musical tastes are 90's grunge, alternative punky type stuff.

Are there any good names out there, especially for boys? Jeremy- pearl jam - isn't in the mix and is what most people suggest! Don't really want to use musicians names either, so no Kurt, Trent etc

Suggestions?!

Layla

So sorry I am Queen fan - though Polly is lovely

Floyd (the Barber - from "Bleach" the Nirvana album)
Frances (Farmer Will Have Her Revenge on Seattle - from "In Utero" the Nirvana album)

Part of me still regrets not calling Dd 'yoshimi' from Flaming Lips fame. She was distinctly unimpressed upon hearing it!

I'm getting quite into this now.

More Pumpkins - have you considered Lily from Mellon Collie?

Manic Street Preachers - Kevin? (Carter)

There's a Kings of Leon song called Mary.

Placebo - Nancy?!

Oh also missed out on calling her Nico re Velvet Underground

Roxanne

Leonard

Jonas (My Name is Jonas-Weezer)
Daisy (Push th' Little Daisies -Ween).

Or for a whole lot of good music -Rosa (Surfer Rosa - Pixies)

If you're thbkibg Mancs then there's Enola.

Or Elise from PJ Harvey's "A Perfect Day Elise".

*thinking Manics

Clearly I am too reliant on autocorrect - then it doesn't kick in!

I like Blake

Ah I think you should go for Spencer then - as in the Nevermind baby - Polly and Spencer are ace together, and it's a good story.

Zephyr or Johnny (RHCP)

I have a Noah (no alarms and no surprises) rather than the whale

Another Manics one, although considerably more political: Elián.

Eloise. was it The Damned?

Martha by Tom Waits

Another vote for Elise... from PJ Harvey's Perfect Day Elise and also The Cure's Letter To Elise. Love that Cure song, not heard it in ages, sigh...

Jane/ Sergio - from Jane says.. By Jane's addiction,

Cecilia

Following from last post - Xiola from James addiction's 3 days.
Not a brilliant story behind it but an unusual name.

Sally from Sally Cinnamon (Stone Roses) and Don't Look Back in Anger (Oasis), or are Polly and Sally too similar?

Martha (For Martha - Smashing Pumpkins)
Jane / Janie (Janie Jones - The Clash)
Charlotte (Charlotte Sometimes - The Cure)
Judy (Judy is a Punk - The Ramones)
Ruby (Thru the eyes of Ruby - Smashing Pumpkins)

Pascal (Scottish Enlightenment. Though not quite your era. )

For a girl you could bring back Heather. (Gorkys Z M)
