I like Lola. I think you're ahead of the curve on that one as far as originality.

Funny, Elise was one of my wife's choices early on, we didn't use it, though.
We never told a soul what the names were before the babies were in front of us/them. This way, we didn't get any of the bs that happens, "I knew a 'xyz,' and he was an asshole." No matter what the past associations people have of a certain name, they go away when they see your baby. BTW, Lola IS that Kinks song, "then he was a she," etc. Hustler's theme song. |

Why do names today have to mean something, or have to have two parts? What happened to Bob, Steve, John, Sarah, Stacey, Lisa, ect.

In for Lola Marie.
The Lotus Cortina dominated in 1965-66. Cortina is an interesting name. I'm not fond of Maxine or Laila. And Colin Chapman's wife was called Hazel, hahaha. That's probably why he called her "Lotus Blossom." To honor the Lotus racing heritage, if the next one is a boy you could call him Goodwood. |
Whatever you do make sure you use a common spelling of the name. Poor kid won't want to go through life correcting people on how to spell her name.
"No sir, replace the c with a K and all the i's with y's." If the Lotus theme is something you are interested in, how about looking at names associated with the Lotus Flower. |

What about Elan? I think both Cortina and Elan are workable. Just need the right middle name. Cortina actually isn't bad. All her friends could call her Cort.

For the record, my screen name here is my real 1st name. Wouldn't have it any other way. Sure everyone would make fun of me when I was 10. but frankly, at 10 kids make fun of each other. Now as an adult it is an asset. I am the only one anyone has ever met, and for better or for worse everyone remembers my name. If it takes your interest give the kid a strange name, she will thank you for it at some point.

And I noticed you didn't capitalize English. Neither do the Scots and the Irish...;) |
I vote for Virginia, after Billy Joel's "Only the good die young".

(yes, a letter and a number - if she is ugly wonder if all the guys will call her K9) I think Scarlet is a really cool name. |
Dammit. It's just too easy with a guy named Blaize driving a Miata. Insert every possible gay joke here.
