On to the Ls

Thursday, April 14, 2016



We're almost halfway through the Challenge and today, we have a sampling of names starting with L.

Laciana      Beautiful one, Italian
Laella         Elf, origin – French, English
Leakiki       Ocean waves – origin – Polynesian

Lanz           Knight, A form of Lance, origin – French/Italian
Leander     Like a lion, origin – Greek
Leib            Lion roaring, origin – Yiddish


So hit me with some L names.

  1. I too like Laciana. You don't hear the name Lance very often; at least I haven't in years; did know someone when I was growing up with that name.

  2. I have a character I love and I've named her Lula! Her real name's Lucia, but that didn't give her the "attitude" I wanted. I like names that start with L. They're melodious.

  6. Most of the "L" names I come across in my genealogy research are simple ones like Liza, Lucy and Lillian. Lupita has been one of my favorite names.

  8. One of my favorite names, fairly common in the VI, is Leona. It just sort of rolls around and falls out of the mouth like a small waterfall tumbling over rocks, like gentle waves lapping on the shore. All those lovely vowels.

  9. I wonder if Leakiki is shortened to Leak? Hope not. LOL
