Do you associate a certain personality/appearance with your fave names?

I do, actually :D

A little brunette girl with curly hair and bright blue eyes. She's very independent but also loves hugs and she's very sweet and confident.

-- Caroline Nikita Lily

Carrie has very blonde hair and the same bright blue eyes as her sister. She is the more reserved sister, and adores doing creative things, like drawing or painting.

I have certain associations that I have for many names, but especially for my favorites.

I have always felt that Rosamund (Rosamund Aline or Rosamund Carys) will resemble her father - though I have no idea who he is yet. She will probably be very close to him as well. She's precocious and strong-willed. She'll probably be the big sister and will act that way, being very protective of her family and her younger siblings.

Matilda (Matilda Wren) will probably be more like me; a middle child. She doesn't really resemble anyone in particular in look or personality. I feel like Matilda would be an independent thinker and open-minded.

Adeline (Adeline Thaïs), would be much more gentle-natured than the other two. She gets along with everyone and everyone adores her. I can't tell if I want Matilda or Adeline to be the 2nd or 3rd, but I feel that Adeline has a bit more "baby of the family" quality to it.

Abram/Elias Bennett (Abram Bennett or Elias Bennett) will be my first boy, most likely. I feel that Abram is more laid-back then Elias. Abram would be patient and protective, whereas Elias bit rebellious and saucy.

Lawson (Lawson Reid or Lawson Elias). I feel that Lawson would probably be the baby of the family. The middle name Elias adds a bit more "oomph" to the name Lawson, though I still feel better pairing it with Reid, even if it does soften the name a bit.

While these are all pretty particular in description, I will. in all likelihood, look at my babies when they are born and pick their name from the vibe I get from them accordingly.

I don't necessarily have a certain way that I imagine them looking. Well, actually I do. I tend to fall for dark-haired, dark-eyed men, so all of my kids will probably have the same. The way that they'd look doesn't really differ in my imagination though. I can't even imagine how I'd find pictures of them.

No I don't mainly because I know so many different people with incredibly different personalities and styles that have the names that I like. So I can never actually describe one specific personality/appearance to go with the names I like. But that might be because I'm not really a very creative person so I've never been good at imagining or seeing that kind of thing lol. I don't really know :P

I'll do my top three for each gender. And yes, I do have a certain mental vision of what they'd look like // act like. Some is just what I believe, some is based off their name meanings in part. For instance their name meanings combined mean:

---Garrett Paul --- brave and humble warrior

---Andrew Lorcán --- fierce man

---Ezra Damian --- to help and heal mankind

---May Bianca --- fair goddess of spring

---Lyra Alice --- noble and kind star

---Helena Josie --- she will add the fire

Garrett would be an adventurous (and mischievous imp) of a boy. He’d live in today and barely glance at future or dwell in the past --- carpe diem. He’d probably have many friends running around with him, and I see him as the outdoorsy type in general, so I can’t imagine he’d spend too much time inside or doing inside-type activities.

Andrew would be different from his brother. He appreciates the beauty of the outdoors, but his interests aren’t really found out there. He would be a man of few words, but well-spoken when he chooses to say something. Highly intellectual. He’s an outside-the-box thinker, and loves to find loopholes in the status quo (and is great at not getting caught). He’d have just a few friends, but the few of them would be very, very close. His "fierceness" is that he is what he is, and no one can change him.

Ezra is laid-back, with a sense of humor. He could be happy just about anywhere, and while he’s not an acclaimed “smart kid” he is talented in a few special areas. Of his siblings he’d be the mediator. He’s his own person but doesn’t have to rebel or flaunt it to prove that he’s independent. He believes in himself, and believes in his continued success tomorrow; a kind of confidence many people want but never have.

May is my firstborn daughter. She’s learned to be patient with a mother who thinks she will never be a good mom to a little girl (I grew up a tomboy and this is a fear for me), and because of her experience, she’s a very empathetic person. Her peers seek her out for advice and reassurance, and she’s happy to oblige. She believes the world is already a beautiful place even with its imperfections, and wants to keep it that way through whatever little measure she can give – planting trees, picking up litter, etc.

Lyra is a late bloomer in personality. For a long time she is sweet but naïve, but eventually something happens, and the metamorphosis occurs. When in full bloom, she’s got an artistic soul and a gentle heart. She will always be a little shy, but when she knows you, you have won a most loyal friend to your side.

Helena will add the fire (the zest perhaps) to life. She’s strong-willed, a little bit crazy, but a little bit wonderful. With a wanderlust and an unique personality, this child will leave her mark on the world long before she ever leaves it. It will take her ages to decide, but when she makes up her mind on what she’d like to do, she’ll strive for excellence. She’s a good judge of character and won’t waste time befriending anyone who isn’t worthy, even if it would get her farther in life. She knows what she wants, and that’s probably her best quality.

not really physical appearances but certain names remind me of personality traits of characters on television or movies
