Mike e-mailed me about this today and, even though this is N. Cage we're talking about, I was still surprised. I mean, this child has a mother, right? And she allowed this?
I like Apple, though. ****, I even like Phineus (though I wouldn't do that to a child, no siree - I like seeing it in fiction.)
I actually like traditional, simple names for the most part. My favorite names for boys are Henry, Eli, Saul (or Sol), and formerly traditional names like Wilder (Wiley for short). I like Wolfe as a first name, too, which is a bit stranger.
For girls, Kate (not short for anything), Greta, Stella, and Beatrice. I'm also partial to Elsbeth, but I wouldn't want that to turn into Beth. I love names like Mathilda and Madeline, but I prefer how the French say those, and I think I'd get tired of saying it over and over.
They are all names I really love to say. I like Apple, as I said, but I wouldn't want to say it all the time. I'd wind up saying, "Hey, girlie," all the time.
