Favorite Female names - Angelique & Josette.  

Both are very pretty sounding names. I've always loved uncommon names, (My daughter's names are Marlena & Alicia) and if I had had another girl, It would have been Josette or Angelique.

Also think  Rachel, Sarah, & Ruby are pretty names too.

Least favorite Female name- ABIGAIL!  The name fit the character so well. Reminds me of an old spinster!!

Dorcas & Hortense are just as bad!

Favorite Male names,  Elliott (always liked that name) Morgan, Nickolas, Justin, Daniel, Evan, Eric, and Adam.

Least Favorite Male Names- Sandor, Tad and Lamar.

Favorite gal's name:  Victoria, and I like Vicki, too.

Favorite guy's name:  Barnabas--it's unusual and hard to forget.

Least favorite gal's moniker:  Bathia.  Never heard it before DS--and I'm glad!

Least favorite guy's name:  Jabez.  Just plain weird!

DS always came up with unusual names:  Suki, Magda, Aristede, Quentin, Dorcas--the list is long.  

Love, Robin

Well, some of them were appropriate for the periods they used--Suky (not with the cutesy i on the end that they used in DS), Dorcas, Abigail, Naomi, Quentin, all of those would have been popular in those times.  Magda is Hungarian, right?  That works for a gypsy, right region.

Suky is a diminutive of Susan.  Not a favorite of mine, I'm afraid :P, but nearly as bad as Roxanne, lol.

I'll start with the baddies 'cuz they're much more fun.

Least fave male name: a close tie between Burke Devlin and Ezra Braithwaite. Burke Devlin sounds like the cliche that he is and Ezra B. just plain sucks. Least fave female name: Bathia Mapes, hands down. In the immortal words of Alfred E. Newman......ecccchhhh. [pissd]

The best male names: Bramwell and Andreas. Bramwell sounds cool and is just plain fun to say. And like the character who had the name, Andreas is mysterious, dark, and ooky. Loooove it! [okb] [crazy]
The best female name: Angelique. Elegant, mysterious, and powerful. [thumb]

Least favorite Male:  Without a doubt..... Burke Devlin.  I detest that name.


Least favorite Female:  Roxanne.  Or maybe it was the thought of that girl "horning" in on Barnabas.  


Favorite Male Name:  Quentin.  It sounds so aristocratic.


Favorite Female Name:   Angelique.  She sounds so heavenly
Cassandra:  I have a potion.  You know it well.  As soon as she drinks it, within an hour, she will go to sleep and have the dream.
Nicholas:  I am much to talented to spend my time drugging drinks.

my choice in names I am fond of are fairly simple, Sarah is a very pretty name for any little girl.. just as David is a very masculine handsome name for a boy, although I must add Barnabas as well as Quentin have their own unique charm, true children will taunt these names, no one stays a child for very long... well with the exception of a certain ghost... :)
As for lest favorite names it must be said that Burtha is not very flattering nor is the name Ezra... [shadow=red,left,300]TEXT[/shadow]

P.S....Does anyone think Sabrina was pretty?or Morgan handsome?



Sorry, I just now spotted your question. I think Sabrina was OK, kind of more interesting than tv star beautiful. Unfortunately, her whining grates and ruins the effect. I do think Morgan handsome, I really enjoy looking at him.
