All the names I chose are on my favourites list. - Ella :)

What names would you put in a sibset with Georgia?
Not after the state, but for a character. Georgia Skye is the name of a 4 year old little sister. I need names that sorta go with it (NO STATE NAMES! That's not what I'm asking! I used Georgia as the feminine form of George) as a brother and sister. The brother is about 14, the sister 16. Thanks! (PS: In case you wanted to know, the surname is Fuller, if that helps any) I asked this before but only got one answer and I like my options.

Baby name to go with Connor as a sibset?
My wife and I are expecting a baby in two months. We don't know the gender and won't until birth. For a boy, we love the name Connor Matthew, and are 99% likely to name our baby this if it's a boy, or a subsequent son this name if it's a girl this time around. We are having a hard time picking a baby girl's name that we both love, although we have a few... any fresh ideas? Must sound good with Connor! :)
What would you name a brother and sister for these sibsets?
I will give the first names of sibling sets, and I want you to add one boy name and one girl name to each set that you think fits well. You don't have to like the name, it just has to fit with the others: SIBSET ONE: -- [G] Holly, Nikki and Katie [B] Riley + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET TWO: -- [G] Ella [B] Jackson, Max and Charlie + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET THREE: -- [G] Charlie, Frankie and Billie, [B] Phoenix + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET FOUR: -- [G] Sasha and Nikita + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET FIVE: -- [G] Amelia and Caroline, [B] Jack and Thomas + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET SIX: -- [G] Keira, [B] Isaac and Lucas + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET SEVEN: -- [G] Katelyn, Ella and Paige + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET EIGHT: -- [B] Jayden and Ashden + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET NINE: -- [G] Zali, [B] Kobe + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ SIBSET TEN: -- [B] Byron and Spencer [G] Isabella and Charlotte + Boy ____________ + Girl ___________ BQ1: Which sibling set is your favourite? BQ2: Which sibling set is your least favourite? BQ3: If you knew that two of the sibling sets (eg. Set 1 and Set 3) were actually cousins, which sibling sets do you think they'd be? :) STAR if you enjoyed this please!
What do you think of this sisters sibset?
I think the names go excellently together. Rosamund, Adeline & Matilda are all strong, substantial, traditional names, with several cute nickname options. I really like the first two names, they're stunning! Especially Adeline Charlotte Wren. I think that one flows best of the three - the flow of Rosamund Ivy Anneliese doesn't seem perfect, but it's still a gorgeous combo. Matilda Isla Shenandoah seems slightly like the odd one out, but perhaps that's just because I don't like it as much as the others, or because Shenandoah is so much more obscure than all the other middle names. Suggestions: Matilda Isolde Sabrine Matilda Ellen Lucille Matilda Simone Pearl Matilda Bryony Jane Matilda Gwendolen Lisette :)
Who named China, China?
The Portuguese, but also sort of the Romans and Hindi/Sanskrit speakers of India.The Portuguese were the first to round the Cape Horn and the first to set up shop in the Far East—they’ve also been one of the last to really lose their empire, though it was a pretty painful, slow death. They used the word China (pronounced SHEE-na), and everyone after them copied it, along with their business models, and they may have either taken the name from Hindi and Sanskrit (चीन (cīn) and चीन (cīna) respectively), or they may have used a modification of the old Roman name for China, Sina. Both the Roman and Sanskrit are thought to be taken from the word Qin 秦, as in the first state that unified China and start building a presence in what would later be called the Silk Road, although the Han and Tang would have been doing most of the trading. The Arabic and Hebrew words for China are also both Ṣīn صين and Sin סין.The later popular name for them in English and other European languages, Cathay, used in Marco Polo and Shakespeare, comes from the Khitan’s name for themselves and their empire, Khitai, during what’s called the Liao Dynasty in Mandarin. A lot of central Asian and even eastern European states (Russian, Slovenian, Kazakh, Mongolian) also use various names derived from ‘Khitai.’Ultimately, probably mostly the Indians. They would have facilitated a lot of the China-Roman trade as well as the later Portuguese trade.
