Anakin is a big GP name for me but, I would never use it.

Haha. DH pitched it to me but I had to say no. I let him have Liam though...

I LOVE the way it sounds! I am not a Star Wars fan at all and I hate how the name is only connected to that. ::Snaps fingers::

I do like the way it sounds but since DH is a huge Star Wars nerd I thought it was too corny.

I actually don't hate Rem.ington. My coworker's daughter adopted a baby boy named Remi.ngton Rh.ys and they call him Remi.

I realize that other people associate it with a gun, but I don't, and the meaning of the name has nothing to do with firearms, so that isn't an issue for me.

I'm really not digging Kar.ma Grace or whatever those other three are.

I can actually get behind Anakin and Karmanot for my kid, but for someone else's. I picture Karma as a cute little hippy child with parents who are freespirited.
The others are awful. Is La.wren prounounced exactly like "La" and the word "wren" or is it bastardizing the spelling of "Lauren?" It looks so masculine to me like someone just chopped the end off "Lawrence."

Yep they say it like Lauren. _
