Then when you're at a loss, just pull it out!<BR/><BR/>I enjoy your blog!<BR/>Marcymarcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13227640878434912961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7975088353842449737.post-16389605855340031872008-08-11T17:17:00.000-05:002008-08-11T17:17:00.000-05:00Mallory - I am name challenged too.

My Papa's name was "Eduardo Angelo Guiseppe Carmello" - the English translation is Edward Andrew Joseph Carmen ....I quickly figured which was more exotic & appealing to both the eye & ear. <BR/><BR/>I adore the flow of tribal & exotic place names - they often sound softer than their english counterparts, although song titles sometimes pop into mind as well (I usually tend to twist those a bit though).<BR/>Look at a bead - is it soft & dreamy...organic = a "flowing soft name" . Bright, funky with angles & an 'edge' = "a shorter more susinct name".<BR/><BR/>The thimble is easy - my first thought was<BR/>"Primaveral Violetta".....Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05152008716680160516noreply@blogger.com
