I've been watching Friends waaaay too much lately and I've gotten into their names...oh no!

What are your thoughts/opinions on:

Chandler for a little boy...I think it's really cute!
So far, I've come up with:
Chandler Matthew
Chandler Levi
Chandler Morgan
Chandler Brody
Chandler Wesley

Phoebe
Phoebe Mae
Phoebe Alana
Phoebe Ava
Phoebe Ryan
Phoebe Quinn

Maggie (Maggie Wheeler played Chandler's ex, Janice )
Maggie Chase
Maggie Georgia
Maggie Alana
Maggie Evelyn
Maggie Sawyer

Molly (Ross and Rachel's nanny for Emma)
Molly Chase
Molly Ryan
Molly Dylan
Molly Evangeline
Molly Giovanna (would definitely be a GP!)
Molly Quinn
Molly Blake
Molly Blaise
Molly Sawyer



What do you think?? ♥

I can't do your girls, because if I do, I'll get into a unisex name rant and we DON"T want to get into that

I LOVE Chandler on a boy <3 So flippin' handsome!!!!

[Laugh-Dream-Love]

I think Chandler is handsome, but I also think that people might always associate the name with Friends, because it was such a hit, and ran for so long. But, that being said, children his age probably wouldn't, so I doubt he'd get it from his peers. I think it's a handsome name, but it's not really my style. From your list I like Chandler Matthew and Chandler Wesley.

Phoebe is adorable, and I think it's getting more popular. I know two Phoebes around the 7-10 age group, and they're adorable. From your list I like Phoebe Mae, Phoebe Ryan and Phoebe Quinn.

Maggie isn't my style. I see it more as a nickname for Margaret, but it's quite cute. From your list I like Maggie Chase and Maggie Sawyer.

Molly is absolutely adorable, I love it! It's cute, but I can totally see it aging well. From your list I like Molly Chase, Molly Ryan, Molly Dylan, Molly Quinn, Molly Blake and Molly Sawyer.

Hope this helped!

I think Chandler is okay, defiantly use it on a little boy!
I do simply adore Chandler Levi [but thats my biast vote!]
Otherwise, I also think Chandler Matthew flows well.

Chandler really needs a strong manly middle name in my opinion.

Phoebe is sweet. It will always remind me of the tv series one tree hill, probably because thats where I first heard the name.
Phoebe Alana is so pretty! ♥ ♥
Phoebe Ava is my very close second vote!

Maggie isnt my style, but Maggie Evelyn is probably my favorite from the mix, its very elegant.

Molly is such a beautiful name! Love, love, love
The middle name potential is just an added bonus!

It sounds best with a longer middle name.
This isnt on your list but Molly Penelope immediately popped into my mind. Thoughts??
From your list; Molly Evangeline is my fav.

Hope I helped somewhat. ♥

I've always loved the names from FRIENDS!

Phoebe, Ross, Monica and Chandler are probably my favourites.

I do like Joseph and Rachel, but never been too much of a fan of Rachel.

I loved these from your list:

Chandler Matthew
Chandler Levi
Chandler Brody
---
Phoebe Alana
Phoebe Quinn
---
Maggie Georgia
Maggie Evelyn
---
Molly Evangeline
Molly Quinn (There's an actress with the same name!)

Sawyer on a girl always reminds me of "One Tree Hill". On a boy it's Sawyer from "Lost". Either one is lovely, but I can see Sawyer better on a boy, just like I can Chandler.

You have some lovely names, Laramie!

Would you like some more ideas?

[Wildflowerchild]

I also really like Chandler Layton and Chandler Mason as well!

Yas; I know that show is super addictive! I've been watching it since I was 10
Thanks for your help...I'd love some more ideas if you don't mind!!

I've just re-watched the whole series for the gazillionth time (currently on season 8) and I made a slightly similar post on facebook.

I have Phoebe and Ross on my list. (I also have Perry and Matthew on my list - Matthew Perry-)

Rachel I like but as a middle name and Chandler and Monica would also be great middles IMO.

Ben and Emma are also great, I think, and would make a brilliant first or mn.

As for minor characters, I think Molly (Emma's babysitter), Jack (Gellar's father), Cecilia (the character who played Jessica Lockhart on Days of Our lives with Joey) Nora (Chandler's mum), Estelle (Joey's agent), Theodore (Mike's father), Veronica (One of Joey's 7 sisters) and Duncan (Phoebe's first "husband") are all ones I love.

I adore your combos: Chandler Matthew (VERY FRIENDS), Phoebe Alana (I have Phoebe Jane), Maggie Evelyn (I have Maggie Florence) and Molly Quinn (But it's also the name of an actress I love from "Castle").

In my opinion, Chandler's ok...Phoebe's ok...Maggie's not my favourite but I love Molly, that's one of my best friend's names.

[alyssa897]

I like Chandler, but I can't shake the image of the character. I like Chandler's character, but I wouldn't want to look at my child and see Chandler Bing lol. Also, my boyfriend's best friend is named Chandler and the only other Chandler I've met was a girl. Hmm now that I think about it, I guess I don't really like it that much.

I like the name Phoebe but more so because of Alyssa Milano's character Phoebe in Charmed. Also, the actree Phoebe Tonkin has made me like the name.

I don't like Ross or Joseph at all. Joseph sometimes sounds nice as a middle name, but I would never ever ever use it.

Monica is ehh. Not my style, really dated, etc.

Rachel isn't my style. Also, I know way too many Rachels.
