Can't use that one!<br /><br />Alex, yes, same for Siobhan, which is the Irish form of Joan meaning “God is gracious.” That's pronounced shi-VAWN. <br /><br />Nicola, me too, plus Zoe.<br /><br />Me either, Rhonda, but I went to several sources and yes, Caesar is hairy. :)<br /><br />True, Betty.<br /><br />Tasha, that's right :)<br /><br />Bish, in Jamaica I can't tell you how many people name their children after celebrities. <br /><br />LOL @ Lee's comment. That's for real though! He is portrayed like that, but I guess it's okay since Caesar was also a title, it seems.<br /><br />Sheena-Kay, I can relate to that. <br /><br />Very true, Glenda. Although I write mainly romance novels, I look at the meanings of the names before I plunk them in my stories.<br /><br />Intersting spelling on Cael. <br /><br />Cool names, Melissa.<br /><br />Good strategy for choosing names, Gail. <br /><br />Thanks, Michele!<br /><br />Hi, Cynthia, glad you found something new here. <br /><br />Me too, Yvonne. <br /><br />Thank you Ronel, I like Ciarán.<br />J.L.

If it meant scratchy or scraggly then I'll question it as a good leadership name. Caz meant more than I thought it did.
