about names (girls)

Well, my last post was about boys names I’d consider when/if I ever have kids. Both names I suggested might lead me to be punished by the karma-police were I ever to actually use them, but I honestly think they are cool names. That said, I guess I should throw out two girls names I’d use, just to balance things out a bit. So without further ado, here goes:

Imogen - I really like this name! If you are curious, it is inspired by my love of Imogen Heap’s music. The name was first used for Shakespeare’s character Innogen from his play Cymbeline, which was mis-printed, resulting in the name I have chosen.

Sophia/Sophie - Greek for “wisdom”, and a pretty name.

If I was more masochistic, I guess I could consider Ishtar, but I’m not that hung up on the name =P
