Tonight, I’m wrapped up in my thermals, a sweatshirt, a blanket and I have my cuddly cat next to me – I’m still freezing though. That’s summer in San Francisco for you. If you’re traveling here on vacation, come in the fall – that’s when we have warmer weather.
All this cold weather got me thinking about warmer locals, which led to island living, which eventually led to island naming. After a little research, I found that there are some interesting island names that could double as cool, unique baby names.
Here’s my list. I organized them into Girls’ and Boys’ lists, but that’s just one person’s opinion – mix and match as you see fit.
GIRLS’ BABY NAMES
CORSICA
IRELAND
JAMAICA
JAVA
SICILY
SUMATRA
TRINIDAD
BOYS’ BABY NAMES
CYPRUS
DEVON
FALKLAND
KODIAK
MELVILLE
SAMAR
SOMERSET
Lost actor Josh Holloway and wife Yessica Kumala went the island route and named their daughter Java in 2009.
What’s your favorite island name? Anything I should add to the list?
Happy naming,
♥ Amanda
