    Interesting! A few of the names are fairly common, but some of those are just..... Wow. I really like Elleura. It sounds so pretty when you say it (el-loohr-ah). Btw, Erie is pronounce (ear-ree) like the lake or the city in indiana and seamon is probably irish and would be pronounces (shay-mon) still not great, but not as bad as you thought, lol. Thanks for sharing you family's names!!!! Very amusing : )

    I sorta like: Clinton Brooks, [Charisma Noel & Misty Marie]

    I dislike: Elleura Iona, [Willis Morton & Willard Harrison], Isaac Newton, Lewis Clark, Olive Mutual, Seamon, Mysteria Rae (I'd sort of like it in a GP way if it was Mystery not Mysteria), Elvin, Thorton Thomly, Ollie

    I really dislike: Glenadean Maxine, Erie Eric, Luwillie, Bonnie Earl, Fleta, Isam / Isom, Lacey, Aage, Mekiafa, Kellene Danae, Zena Bith, Rocky Ray, Joy Peppin Peppin, Lawanna, [Maude Myrtle, Rae Mae, Hazel Nobel, Sylvia Precious, Floyd Charles, Erma Marbeth], Glady Calla

    Those are... quite unusual. To be perfectly honest, I don't think I'd use any of these names.

    Gertelle: 2/5 Blech. Just...Blech. It got a 2 because it could be shortened to Elle, which is much better. :) Namena: 3/5 Interesting and unusual. Never heard it before. Quo: 2/5 Makes me think of the "status quo" which is not something I want. Prussia: 3/5 It's kind of pretty...odd to be named after a country though (Prussia used to be a country.) Kermit: 2/5 Kermit the frog...rhymes with hermit...just too many other associations with this name for me Hash: 3/5 Not awful at least. Different. G Nedward: 2/5 I'm confused. :0 Shonassey: 2/5 I thought this was a girls name at first. Ahhh!

    hehe ^-^

    Some of them are cute, and some of them are cool, and some of them made me laugh aloud.

    Are these old names? as in, are these people around today, or are they your ancestors?

    I like...

    Clinton Brooks

    Ollie

    Kellene Danae

    Charisma Noel & Misty Marie

    Sylvia Precious

    I like Lacey, but for a girl and for a nickname :L

    (:

    I actually think this is really cool. Better than my Family... Elizabeth, Richard, Mark etc... :L

    Oh dear. I'm trying to find a good name in there.

    Ollie would be good...for a boy.

    Poor Seamon.

    I like Lacey and Lawanna.

    Really, some fantastic old names to keep up your sleeve.
