B is for Baby Names

Today is letter B and it stands for baby names!  OK this title is a bit ridiculous but I want to talk about names that I love and would name a baby if I would have one.  Enjoy!

Penelope
I think this name is lovely!  There's a story to why I like this name but it's really... weird.  Sounds like someone who is walking through the woods in a white dress with gorgeous hair.

Valerian
OK I'll confess I got this from a video game but I adore this name!  It's inexplicable but it sounds like a knight in the medieval era.

Genevieve
I have no idea why I like this name but it's different.  I pronounce it with a long i instead of e.  It sounds warrior-like and yet it's innocent.

I have one more but it's the one I want to change my name to so I'll leave that a mystery!  Whenever I tell people these names they just look at me awkwardly like I'm a lunatic or something.  I mean don't these names sound awesome?!  Or maybe it's just me...  See you for C on Tuesday!!!

  1. Hi - visiting from the AtoZ linky.
    I love looking through baby names books too - but that's more so to find character names - I have ideas what I've love to call my kids but suspect there will have to be some give and take with a partner (boo). After yesterday's post I think I might know what W you want to be called (if it was mentioned someone in post A). Enjoy the challenge - I did it last year and it's a lot of fun.

  7. I think it's a shame we have to use the same name our whole lives. Our names should reflect who we are, and who we are changes over the years.

    1. I never thought of it in that sense but I have to partially agree.
