I want bland names


By cdthomas - Posted on 04 November 2008

but not too bland.  Some names that would work on a directory, but not John, Mary, Sue, etc.

Yes, you can find lots of names on the internet, you also have the option to check online name dictionaries that also include meaning of names. Your choice.

If you have a Yahoo signin then it takes no time at all to sign in to Yahoo Answers. Just don't go to theatre or creative writing or literature or your play will be doomed!

If you go to family:parenting: baby names you can ask for suggestions and as it is a very well attended category, you will get many, many suggestions there from people on the cusp of naming their own new human (or dog or parrot or Sims persona) and you can find in other questions all kinds of names from ethnic to pretty to supremely outlandish.

 

I've thought of taking up the habit of outlandish names for one's children as a topic in a play and what that may imply for the child in the future.

 

Elizabeth, Henry, Jack, Christine, Ella, Anne, Rebecca, Jacob, Andrew, Michael, Richard, Patrick, Steven, Marilyn, Caroline, Carol, Kim, Kenneth, Marion, Ellen, Sarah, Susanne, Timothy, Robert, Anna, Kelly, Michelle, Jason, Rachel, Lisa, Laura.

you mean like Sue, Dave, Joe, Claire? Not bland (!) but pretty normal?
