Baby Name Poll Results

Till gets my vote. I love him in his original form: Tielo, which was a medieval Low German form of Dietrich or other names begining with Diet. Till makes me think Southern gentleman. Quite lovely.

Thorin, I want to like, but he’s very dwarvish and The Hobbit to me. Thorin Oakenshirld was the character’s name. One of the Dwarves who went to Lonely Mountain with Bilbo, to reclaim the mountain from Smaug, the Dragon. He was the one with the sky blue hood with the silver tassle, leader of the company. Probably why it all sticks in my head. The Hobbit is my least favorite Tolkien book but I do remember it well.

Till Wagner sounds wonderful and Till is decidely unusual hese days (but he feels very mdern, short & breezy) Till is a lovely choice!

what about Torin (Irish Gaelic - chief) instead of Thorin??
