Any more requests?
Would you like to see more Medieval names? What about names with Ocean meanings? Or Fire? Give me a theme and there is a good chance I can find a name, or three. =]
These are great! Thanks, Sarah.^-^ I especially like the female names. Who knew Northern Europe had such great "futuristic" sounding names?
ReplyDelete(Decree is also really neat- might be stealing that idea. ;P)
Have a good Sunday!
So glad you like them! Thanks for commenting!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I know! I love the idea of Decree as a name =]
Happy Sunday!
Hey Sarah,
ReplyDeleteCould you do an ocean theme please?
Partly because I love the Sea and partly because I think my name has an ocean meaning.
Ha,HA
So if you did an ocean theme you could always use my name (hint, hint).

Haha, yes! Ocean-themed names will definitely be in the next post!
