A few days ago, I got a brand new niece to add to my collection. Little Clara can now join the twins as they scuttle along the floor, with their cousin Sophie looking on with great amusement.
And as I promised, Valkyrie's brand new sibling will be following suit- so Val is getting a little sister. Yay!
Any GIVEN name suggestions will be greatly appreciated...!

«Oldest ‹Older 4401 – 4477 of 4477How about Moxie? Or something simple like Jessica, Jennifer or Tiffany to start with - i mean, that her parents name her. But then she gets immersed in the world of skulduggery and chooses the name Moxie...something. It'd be a nice little reference to the first book where skul says Val has a lot of moxie!
OOOH I KNOW I KNOW!!! :D Anna Edgeley! :D Isn't that just the best name ever for Valkyrie's little sister? I must be a genius to come up with that name... >:D Lol sorry I'm a little HIGH right now? :D
hmmm, Iknow, Natalie!!!!! It's Italian and means Christ's Birth (plus it's my name!!) :D
What about Nicole? It means something like victory or protector of the people which is similar to Valkyrie which means protector of the battlefield And I think stephanie has something to do with crowns which is victory of sorts
Ah I have confuzzled myself
I think Shauna is a truly amazing name...... Or Julia or Dana or........ Aoibheann
( means beautiful in Irish)
*__*
hi
I'm still putting my vote in for Angelica Edgley. That would be the coolest name ever for a little baby whose sister is so tough. And its sort of ironic because Valkyire's name means a warrior woman who leads the souls of the dead off the battlefield, and if her sister's name means "angel" then they coincide perfectly. Go Angelica Edgley!!!

More people like the name Emma!!
WOO!!!! LAST PAGE!!!
I had to scroll down through an immense amount of comments while in my headphones there was this odd squeaking sound, so this must be important. I think that something Irish would be awesome, like...
Caoilainn: caol "slender" and fionn "white, fair, pure." Several saints were Caoilainn and one was described as "a pious lady who quickly won the esteem and affection of her sister nuns by her exactness to every duty, as also by her sweet temper, gentle, confiding disposition and unaffected piety."
Darcy:In Irish dorcha means "dark, dark-haired" or "descendant of the dark one."
or
Teagan:The Irish form of the Welsh name Tegwin which means "beautiful."
I dunno... I just think that they're really rad names and sticking to your roots is always cool. :)
haha bein scottish i feel connested to the irish. its amazin how their gaelic is so similar to ours :) suppose it has the same roots...but is kinda diffo all the same. Irish cousin :)
Hello????
aloha Lunar ;)
I AM IRISH.
I win.
Win what?
Ooh, what about Kiara Edgely? It means small, dark one
@Lunar
A prise I hope.
Hi Jaffa!
Hey lunar. and to Cluainn. dont think weve met, but yeah...suppose BEIN irish trumps bein cousins with the irish :) but we scots ARE awesome.
am i the only scot here?
Everyones over at the overflow blog!
*Angry Mutterings*
already? but we aint filled it yet :)
But we will be... Eventually
Then I'll wait for the new blog post.
what the address for the overflow again?
*whispers to Derek*
Emma's a good name, it means whole and universal. ;)
I niether know nor care.
Sorry bout that... I assume it's somewhere in
skulduggerypleasentforums.uk?
.com?
still think Erin is a good un. means Ireland doesnt it?
Um guys we stopped posting so that Derek would have space to answer questions. Kallista esecially requested it.
Yeah, well done.
I love the nmae Saorise, means freedom, as gealige.
SEACHTAIN NA GEALIGE ftw.
*soz* off to try find overflow now...
*Sits and waits to die cause she hates the forums*
*Is aware of her sore loserness*
*Wonders whether or not to start doing commissions*
What's a way to say this without sounding crazy...my friend's imaginary friends would like to submit their names. (Billy,Bob,Joe,Fred,Chuck,Ted,Evelyn.)
I say...Either Mary or Annalise.
Bo Diddly.
I say that the Maker has smiled upon me,
For he's let me see the things I'd never see...
That game (Dragon Age 2) is going to convert me I swear. I am now, once again, constantly saying "Maker's breath!", "Andaren atish'an.", "Ma serenas.", "Blighted...", :Andraste's ashes!" and so forth. I also deeply hate Anders and love Fenris. Both grow blue when angry and both have a deep hate for things the other supports. Ah...My company I keep.
Blessed be,
Miss Mary Hiashi
Mr Landy,
I was re-reading some previous posts and noticed that the font keeps changing.
Still haven't figured out how to fix it then? Lol
