Hey everybody,
I was wondering if you guys could help me out by giving me suggestions for baby names that would sound good in English and Spanish and with one English last name and one Spanish last name. We don't know yet if it will be a boy or a girl.
Thanks

william_andrew_channell says on Jul 27, 2006, 07:34: Thanks for all your replies, but I think a few of you kind of forgot that they should be names that are OK in English AND Spanish. No offense, but Miguel, Esteban, Santos, Joseph, Jose, Lewis, Luis, Mercedes, Maria del Mar, Juan, Camilo, Antonio, Andres, Felipe, Juan Pablo and John Paul are not exactly bilingual names.
