What names do you like or even love but can't use for yourself because they are relatives or friends?

[~Nadezhda]

I can't really speak for my (future) children, seeing as I'm not in that position yet.

But these are the names that I love, but couldn't be used for me or my sisters, as they clash/rhyme with the last name making a ridiculous sound:

Alice, pronounced ah-LEE-che
Cecilia, pronounced che-CHEE-lyah
Maria Luce, prn. Mar-EE-ah LOO-che
Beatrice, prn. be-ah-TREE-che
Delia, prn. DELL-ee-ah.

Last name is De Luce [prn. something like Da(y) LOO-che], so you can see as those would clash.

Like Nadia, i'm not in the position of having kids any time soon, but these names i know are out, sadly. Some of them i just really love, others i'm okay about not using. The ones i left out are more common names.

Mine are:

Friend of family names:
Landon

Relatives:
Molly
Rebecca
Shannon
Emma
Angel
Sadie
Shelby
Marissa
Naomi
Jamie

To close to use
Madison or Addison nn Maddie or Addie -my niece's name is Matty'May

And i think thats it.....

[-Tara]

Rylee
Cheyenne
Bryson
Scarlett
Tia
William~(which is a family name so i will probally use it anyway)
Brooklyn~have a cousin named Brooke

I love what you did with your font TaraAnn!

I wouldn't be able to use:
Dallas ~ my brother's name, though I guess I could use it as a mn to honor him
Austin ~ my other brother's name, I guess it could be a middle name to honor him or something

Cassia ~ too close to Cassandra, my cousin's name

I think that may be it...

Not a lot of family members or friends have names that I love, or even like.
