Horatio --
Love it. I tend to think "
Horatio Nelson" first, but whatever the source it's a great name. I've also heard female decendants of Admiral
Nelson have been named
Horatia, which I find darling in the extreme. :-)
Amalia --
Love it.
Amalia has always been overshadowed by
Amelia. It's nice to see this charming name from the past get some attention.
Amy is a sweet nn. I've dabbled with the idea of
Molly as a nn for
Amalia, but I'm still on the fence about that.
