Fearless

Favorite boy/girl names and why?

Before anyone freaks out about this, let me clarify that one; I am twenty years old, generally I would be thinking about this. Two; I write in my free time, so obviously I need to think about this a lot for stories.

For boy's I'd say Jackson (Jake), Lazarus, Issac, Maxwell, and Lucas.  I love the name Jackson because you can say "Jake", and it means "Son of Jack", and "Jack" means "John", so either way you look at it, we're getting Biblical. ^_~  Lazarus has been my favorite since I read a book called There's Joy in the Morning, which was a Reader's Digest book from the 60's. He was one of the nurses that saved the main female protagonist in the story. Lazarus, also, biblical speaking, was one of Jesus' best friends. Issac is one of the characters in Maximum Ride, though they refer to him as Izzy, which is what I always called Issac in my stories. Issac was the first child introduced into the collaborative story with my ex, and it's always been one of my favorites. And again, it's biblical.  Lucas...I can't explain the reason behind that one. I just love the name Luke.

Falling into the category of girls; Lillian, Ruth, Kyrie, Landon, Brianna. Lillian, unfortunately, is the name of my cousin(?) that ran away with her son. We haven't seen nor heard from her in years.  I absolutely love the name Lilly. Ruth is my favorite book of the Bible. As a hopeless romantic, it's only logical I'd love that book. Besides, she was the grandmother of David, how can you not like that? Kyrie is latin for "Lord".  Kyrie Elasien is a song by Mr. Mister where he says "Kyrie Elasien down the road that I must travel...in the darkness of the night...where I'm going will you follow?...on a highway in the night", where basically he's saying "Lord have mercy"...I decided if i ever had a little girl, I'd name her Kyrie Faith...which translates to Lord's Faith.  Landon came to me in a dream; she was a little girl with bright red hair that I saved from a fire. I don't know if she's just a girl, a girl in church, or my own child, but I loved the name.  Besides, Landon Ruth sounds really cool.  Brianna is from a book called Outlander by Diana Gabaldone. She's the daughter of Claire and Jamie.  She married Rodger, and I fell in love with Bree and Rodger instantly.
