I know, I know...I've been away. I'm in my last three weeks of the semester, and I'm putting off a paper I have to write to post this...somebody please scold me! D:

Anyway...Tim and I have both fallen in love with Leonidas, but I'm worrying about how it will sound with his last name, which starts with an "S" and is two syllables. I think, for the most part, we would call him Leo...well, thoughts?

ALSO, Tim has absolutely fallen in love with Nahla for a little girl, and it used to be one of my guilty pleasures. We agreed on Nahla Nicole: Nicole is his older sister's middle name. (:

I surprisingly like Leonidas (it's a Shakespeare characters... did you know that?)

And Nahla is Lion King :P That's all I can associate with, sorry. It's not a bad thing, because the Lion King is awesome. Nahla Nicole is pretty though

I didn't...what play is Leonidas from? :wub:
That's kind of perfect. I know Nahla is Lion King, but Tim and I love it all the same. (:

Thanks honey! I finished the paper by like 1:30 today, and I just finished editing it.
I'm pretty proud and hope my professor likes it!

Nahla is beautiful, I could totally see me and Tim with a little curly-haired girl named Nahla. And honestly, I'm so in love with Leonidas and I don't think I can part with it!

Glad you did your paper, girl! <3

Anyway, I do love Leonidas. The more you post it, the more it seems to grow on me :wub: I know what you mean with the clashing S's though. Honestly, in saying the two names together, they DO clash to sound like Leonidas [insert last name minus the S ie example Karon Nolan sounding like Karo Nolan or Karon Olan]. However, I think being the two of you adore it so much I'd definitely stick to it! I know how much a name nerd can get all caught up in perfect flow and all, but you've got to remember that being head over heels for the name is the most important part of naming! ;)

Oh, and Nahla Nicole is very pretty ^_^ I can totally imagine a little girl looking like you and Tim being named Nahla <3 I can't imagine a peachy white baby [like an Irish one] being named Nahla, but you have a bit of color to your skin tone and all and I think that plus the curly hair would be an absolutely adorable little Nahla <3 And of course theres a fabulous Lion King association! Mike loves Kiara, which is in one of the lion kings as well (I think the second though). Them people who created the lion king did darn well at naming ;)

Thanks Remy girl!
I can actually get a lot darker, when I was young a lot of people thought I was black because I tanned so much. x]

I really like the name Nahla, mainly because Lion King is my favorite movie EVVVEEER! :) And I love Nala. ;)
Nahla Nicole doesn't have the best flow ever, but I understand it's Tim's sisters name (it's my sisters name tooo!) So it's cute. :)
