We named our first son Nicholas Arthur. "Nicholas" because we liked the name, and "Arthur" after my father's father.
Our daughter is Katharine Miranda - two famous Shakepeare heroines, as noted above. Given how strong-willed our Kate is, I may yet rue the day I named her that.
Our youngest son is Jonathan Reeve. (We thought briefly about making his middle name Nicholas in memory of his brother, but I didn't want to saddle him with that.) "Jonathan" because we like it, and "Reeve" is a family name that stretches back to the 17th century on these shores. I really wanted Reeve for his first name, but I couldn't talk the Missus into it...
A lifetime of naming D&D characters stood me in good stead when naming our kids, I think. One gets used to thinking about the rhythm and 'coolness' of a name. No kids named Orangejello for us!
