[Opinions] Dawn
So, after watching Up this weekend with my friend and my boyfriend, I was sitting there and watching the credits for the production babies and there was a baby named Beach and after everyone being "omg what, Beach?!", my boyfriend said that if he had a daughter, he would want to name her Dawn.
He said it was partly after his mom, and also partly because "you don't meet many girls named Dawn anymore"
(at that point I said "that's because it's sort of dated")
So yes, I know it's dated, but I think it could grow on me. WDYT? Middle name ideas?
--
Also, he said that he really didn't care what he'd name a son, and my friend got really excited and my boyfriend was like "What?"
And I explained that I wanted to name my son Ashley [and my friend wants to be his godmother]. Boyfriend said that was cool with him. Yay!

I used to have a best-friend named Dawn, Dawn-Marie actually, she would be about 20 now. Youngest I know of though. I think that although the name is a bit dated, it's still a nice name. Not one I'd use, but I wouldn't mind seeing it at all.
I love the name Dawn and have been thinking about it recently also. It is a beautiful name and I would love to see it come back into fashion.

Felicity Dawn is amazing!
Dawn Elise is nice too.
Dawna, eh? Interesting.
