LOL I was thinking Atticus for a boy, Lauren Olamina for a girl
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7585214 I get Atticus. But Lauren Olamina? Where is that from? Sorry I don't get the reference. LOL. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1419389 From "Parable of the Sower," by Octavia Butler, a personal favorite. A second for a girl would be Katniss. I love strong female characters. So Scout would do, too, I s'pose, and Galadriel. Maybe Xena for a middle name. ;) Funny I'm having a harder time thinking of stand-out boys' names which are unusual without being geeky. I certainly would not, for instance, want to burden a child of mine with a name like Frodo or Gandalf. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7585214 I looked up the name as you were posting. Thanks. Beautiful name, BTW. Xena is awesome, as well. I would also add Buffy to that, by way of tough girl names. Knew one as well once, too. LOL. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1419389 EVERYONE should read Parable of the Sower. Buffy.... great character, not such a great name. I had a best friend named Buffy in jr high lo these many years ago, long before the Vampire Hunter. She hated it, and frankly it always sounded to me like a toilet paper brand or something. (She's since changed it.) ;) I'd go for Willow, though!
