[millzcrawf]

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 💙

Paisleigh

Sofia

Hull
Wuhan
Ok all joking aside...

Nile
Cairo
Kyoto
Berlin
Austin
Tennessee
Georgia
Carolina
Roma
Sevilla
Tulsa
Dixie

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.

Siena and India for girls
Oslo for a boy

Qikiqtarjuaq

Altinkum

China

Revelstoke or Rev for short!

I've always loved India

Not as keen on Paris or Brooklyn

Preston always makes me laugh

@ILoveShula Paisleigh?!?!?! I love that. I'm so suggesting that to friends!!
Brilliant - they could never visit - they'd be so disappointed!!
Disclaimer: haven't lived there for years!!

Aspen

Skye for a girl, but I do love Adelaide too.
Devon or Nairn for a boy.

Oh sorry, mine are not cities/countries, just places. Must learn to read properly.

Blyth is popular on MN

My suggestion was a joke btw

Pretoria, Adelaide

Austin
Brooklyn
Charlotte
Phoenix

I quite like Firenze for a boy. Good job I'm not planning any more children, as I don't think he would thank me for it.

My eldest is named after an Island.

Chelsea. Don't think that counts sorry.
Or Alberta

I also like the boy names of Harris & Lewis... but don't think they would make a good sibling pair.

Topanga

Asia

Though obviously that's a continent.

North-Korea is my favourite.

I'm also a big fan of K2.

Uruguay (for a boy).
