Would (or have you) you use any Beatle related name when the time came to choose a name/names for your kid/kids?

Well, Paul is Pavel or Pasha in Russian. I don`t like it.
John is Ivan or Vanya, I don`t like it.
George is Georg or Gosha, I don`t like it.
Richard doesn`t exist in Russian.

If we take the Beatles wives,
1. Pattie may be Praskovya or Pasha (like Paul)
    Morin maybe Marina or Marisha - very nice
    Linda is Lida
    Cynthia doesn`t exist
2. Olivia maybe Olga or Olya - also nice
    Barbara is Varvara or Varya
    Jane maybe Eugenya or Jenya - very nice
    Yoko - oh, Yoko! doesn`t exist definitely.

The fact that we maintain traditional names is due to our loving to make them soft and endearing, to use hypocoristic suffixes. And this is possible only with traditionally used and familiar names. Like: Elena (Helen) is Lena, Lenochka, Lenusya, Alyona, Alyonka, Alyonushka (fantastic!). Or: Anna, Annyushka (very pretty), Annechka, Annyutic, Anyuta, Annyutka, Nyusha, Nyura. Or: Maria, Masha, Mashyunya, Mashenka (very nice), Manya, Manyasha, Maryusya.
But of course, one can give it a try.

My daughter's official name is Eleonora, but I didn't even think of adding Rigby to her names. It became Finette instead, but that has nothing to do with the Beatles.

I wouldn't name my daughter Eleanor Rigby, or for that matter, after any song in which things don't end up well for the titular character.

*shudders* I can't stand the name Jenya.  A former friend was named Yevgeni (sp?) and went by Jenya and I haven't been able to stand that name since!!  Plus Yevgeni (sp? again lol) is the name of my least favourite skater (Yagudin > Plushenko).


I think I've said it before, I want to name a boy Jude :)  Obvious reasons I believe!

My daughters name is Abbey Elaine. Elaine is the name of my wifes late grandmother, but it goes well with Abbey in a kind of Beatles related way.

Male - Alexei Yagudin or Elvis Stojko
Female - not sure...  If I had to pick, Joannie Rochette
Pairs - Sale & Peltier, or crap, that one Chinese team
Dance - Bourne & Kratz or Marie France & Patrice (I forget their last names)

I dont really like the name Richard, not to small kids anyway. Similar to what Jane said with the whole Russian names conversions.... I wouldnt call the kid Paul or Pavel because with my accent in Russian it doesnt sound good! I never was particulary fond of the name George... John seems to be alright.
But I love the name Alan, and since Alan White played with John, well here's your beatles connection!

As for a girl's name. Eleanor (not Rigby) seems a very nice name

Don't you like Plushenko? Aww. He is the one with the funny nose right?

I am not a skater expert, but I like Plushenko.  I also like Johnny Weir and Sasha Cohen (not to be confused with Borat, LOL), but I get the feeling they'd be kind of "diva-ish" if you catch them in the wrong moment.  Well, Johnny more so than Sasha, anyway.  People seem to love Evan Lysacek (spelling?), and while I think he's a good skater, he doesn't appeal too much to me.

My sons middle name was almost Jude, but ended up the same as my middle name.

However, I have dogs named Lennon and Julia.

I also have a 1973 Beetle that I need to name.  Thought about George, Jude, Sadie, etc.

Well, theres Julia, Michelle, Sadie, Martha, Eleanor, Lizzy, Madonna, Robert, Rita, Jude (obviously) and Prudence, but I would not name my daughter prudence. And if it was a boy any of the Beatles names or a girl any of the wives names. I recently wrote a story for my English class and I incorporated Beatley names in there: Lizzy, Michelle, Jude, Cynthia, Mrs. Starkey, Mr. Epstein, Miss Martin, and Paul lol. My teacher is a huge Beatles fan and he gave me an A+ for creativity  ;D

Why doesn't anyone name their kids John or Paul anymore?? Those are the only Beatle related nicknames I like. Besides Julia.
