I've really been crushing on Estella lately. I'd nickname her Stella or Stelle. I can see in my head a little Estella running around with her little sister Juliet and her big brother Callum What are your thoughts? Can I pretty please have some middle name suggestions? Bonus points to double middle names
So, I met a little Caucasian, American upper-class girl the other day named Asante. I thought it was very odd. For those of you who may not know, Asante means "thank you" in Swahili. It's pronounced Uh-sahn(sawn)-tay. I know I always like hearing names I hadn't heard before, so I thought I'd share this one. Thoughts on Asante?
What are your thoughts on the name Shaw for boys? I'm thinking about putting it in one of my middle combos. I have a dear friend with the surname Shaw (which is what he went by) and he is like a brother to me. I've known him since I was an infant. I don't like his first or middle names, neither does he, lol that's why he goes by Shaw, but I want to honor him.
Is Job an awful name? I'd use it as a middle name, and just to clear anything up, the pronunciation is not like the word job, but more like the first part is joe, but ending with b. One syllable. I really like who Job was in the Bible, and think it could potentially be a good middle name. I wouldn't use it as a first name as there would be pronunciation trouble, etc. I just want opinions on it.
I've also really been liking Cormac lately. I'd prefer it as a middle, but wouldn't mind it as a middle name either. Can I get opinions and combos for this?
Also, I'd like to hear your top outlandish, strictly guilty pleasure names.
-I really like Amsterdam for boys, but don't have much of anything else, either gender

Jobe is the correct spelling, I think. Estella is cute -- esp. with a sister Juliet. :-)

Estella is beautiful
I actually really like the name Shaw, which is suprising for me, but just seeing it there... I kind of fell in love a little bit.
I'm all for Cormac

Thanks for the opinions!
And Job is the correct Biblical spelling. Jobe is a surname pronounced the same way, but it has less of a history behind it.

I'm glad someone else likes Shaw It's not a name heard often
