    That’s so funny. I had lists of baby names when I was a youngster also, and no , never used them. I can remember a few: Alanna, Deidre (yuck);and for boys – Owen and Colin, both of which I still like.
    Happy TT!

    My Caroline was nicknames “Caddie” by her younger sister for awhile. I had forgotten about the book until she started calling her that. Thanks for visiting my TT!

    What did you name your children?

    Let’s see, when I was a kid I thought I’d use these names for my kids:

    Veronica
    Jeremy
    Keith (I did use this one and only this one, for one of my kids)
    Katie
    Kirsten/Kirsty
    Lissa
    Scott
    Colleen
    Renee
    Rick
    Jeff
    Clint

    I ended up using Keith, Luke, Monica (not too far off Veronica), Stephanie, and Stephen. I tried to use Jeff but the hubby wouldn’t let me. Scott was someone’s name I didn’t like by then so I didn’t use it. I also tried to use Jeremy but the hubby shot it down, too.

    Interesting list. However, with one exception, they all seem pretty regular names. Nothing a kid would be embarrassed about.
