498.0. "LOOKING FOR A BOY'S NAME" by SKYWAY::NIEDEROEST () Mon Feb 12 1990 08:32

    
    I'm thinking about babynames. I found a couple of beautiful girl's
    names. But I'm still looking for a boy's name going with Kobler and
    being some kind of powerful and smooth.
    
    What I found so far is Fabian, Pascal and Simon.
    I like french and uncommon names (I don't like names like Peter,
    Thomas, Daniel, Roger, Kurt, Bruno, Hans, Andreas, all common names
    in Switzerland).
                                             
    I'm waiting for your suggestions.
    
    Thanks for your help!

    Jeannette,
    
    Here are a couple of suggestions:
    
    Quinton
    Elijah
    Jonathan
    Marcus
    
    Just a couple off the top of my head. What did you pick for a girl's
    name?
    
    Good Luck!

    I love Quinton.  What would you put with it??  I like Travis, too and
    thought about Travis Quinton or Quinton Travis.

    Thanks, this is quite a nice name, but think about that..
    
    I live in Switzerland and the last name is Kobler. Quinton Travis
    is an english name (I like english names) but it (unfortunately)
    doesn't go with Kobler and everybody will pron. this name in a german
    way and that sounds so different.
    See my problem? 
    I think french names go quite good with the last name and swiss
    people are used to pron. french names (or italien).
                                     
    An other name I like a lot is Simon (pron. Se-mon).

498.5Pronounced "Karen", not "Kareeeeeeeen"STEREO::FAHELAmalthea Celebras, LuincarandirFri Mar 02 1990 10:138
    Re: .4
    
    _I_ know what you mean.  My mother's family is french, and no one could
    pronounce my name, Karen.  They all called me "Kareen" or "Corrine". 
    It gave my niece a great middle name, but it did nothing for me.  It
    was especially fun when we went up to Canada for a visit.
