Girls:
Rhetta- This is different
Brenna-
I have always liked this name
Coco(Yes there is a girl in the show named Coco)-
Not a fan...isn't there a celebrity baby named Coco?
Mercedes nn. Cedy (prn like Sadie)-
I like Cedy/Sadie, but Mercedes is not my style.
Aldena -
Not a fan
Eldorina-
Not a fan
Soleil-
I love this for a middle name.


Boys:
Darren- We are naming one of our sons Daryn...I really like it.
Ezra-This sounds feminine to me
Boaz- Unique :D
Onyx- I love the way this one sounds, but I could never use it.
Creedence- It sounds/looks close to Cadence...it sounds cool though.
Jerson- This is interesting...I kinda like it.
Blue Jay- Really, I mean, really? I don't mind blue as a middle name for a girl.

Some of these are kinda crazy...but others are kinda neat! I think new names are refreshing, though.

Nathan, That's what you get with Theater People, I guess!

I like Rhetta because I've never met anyone else with the name and It doesn't really sound like any name other than Rhett!

-Tor :D

I was in theatre through out my childhood & high school, up until I had Lilah, and I heard some crazy names!

Girls:
Rhetta-It's different but I don't think I would use it.
Brenna-I really like this name, it's cute.
Coco- Maybe as a nickname....definitely not as a first name!
Mercedes nn. Cedy (prn like Sadie)- My cousin almost named her daughter this...the went with Lexus insted. But I've never liked "car names much!
Aldena- It's kind of pretty actually.
Eldorina- Ehh...no.
Soleil- I considered this name once...it seems a little exotic to me.


Boys:
Darren- It's okay. Not my style really.
Ezra- Wouldn't use it.
Boaz- I know someone with this as their surname. I don't think I'm crazy about it.
Onyx- It kind of has a cool vibe to it.
Creedence- Not my style.
Jerson- A different -son name. Not bad.
Blue Jay- No way! Poor kid! Is he liked?

Ezra and Boaz are both biblical names, their brothers.

They usually call Blue Jay BJ but considering he's only 6 months old he's pretty well liked! :D

Girls:
Rhetta - Not bad, but not my style
Brenna - Beautiful
Coco(Yes there is a girl in the show named Coco) - Not crazy about it
Mercedes nn. Cedy (prn like Sadie) - I also know a Mercedes. It's not technically a car name; it has been around a long time before the car. In fact, the car was named after someone's daughter. I actually like it, but would never use it.
Aldena - OK
Eldorina - No thank you
Soleil - I love this name, but can't use it now because I used to have a cat named this!


Boys:
Darren - I like it
Ezra - Roger likes it; I think it's OK
Boaz - Not a fan
Onyx - I could see this on a girl, but not a boy
Creedence - No thanks
Jerson - Makes me think of Gherkin Pickles - don't know why. . . LOL
Blue Jay - Odd. I agree with Rosie on the nn BJ. I can see him having trouble with that when he's in high school.

Creedence - dont like. Reminds me of Creedence Clearwater Revival


He's actually named for them! His parents had their first kiss listening to "Have you ever Seen the Rain?"


[font="Comic Sans MS"][size=3]Is his full name Blue Jay? Or is this his first and middle name?


First and Middle his last name is Smithton

I get what you all say about Merecedes being a car name, but actually mercedes is Mercy in Spanish.


Cedy is Spanish and is named because of this!

Rhetta- Ecckkk...
Brenna- Nice but I like Breanna better
Coco- COCO? BLEH.
Mercedes nn. Cedy (prn like Sadie)- Nice.
Aldena- It sounds like a mountain range, like the Aldena mountains
Eldorina - Eldorina sounds like El Dorado
Soleil- Sun? Interesting. I like it.

Darren- This name is popular where my kids go to school.
Ezra - I was in a Murder on the Nile with a girl named Ezra
Boaz - Boaz? Like the sound speaker?
Onyx - This is in Pokemon, c'mon.
Creedence- I like it, but I would never name a kid that
Jerson - Jerson? There's a boxer someone near Newark named Jerson
Blue Jay- Ughhh.... not really.

If you want to name someone Coco, why not just name them Coconut?
