    I have a friend who named their first son "Miguel."  He is a very
    nice looking boy and whenever I've heard the name, I think of him.
    
    Just a bit of information ... when my mother was pregnant with me,
    she read a novel (the birthplace of a lot of names) and one of the
    characters was "Elena Maria", - I might also mention that my mom
    is Japanese and used to spell very poorly (no longer true), anyway,
    when I was born, she wanted to name me for the character in her
    Romance Novel but she couldn't spell it .... I became Elaine Marie
    instead.
    
                                            - Elaine

    I grew up in S. Cal. and remember this really good looking guy
    in high school.  His name was Javier.  Association means a lot -
    I still think the name sounds great because of the particular 
    person who owned it!

    Well, thank you very much for the compliment (even though it was
    not directly addressed to me!).  My name is Yolanda, too, and a
    lot of people find that name pretty, although I always thought it
    was kind of boring.  I guess I have begun to like it!  My complete
    name is Yolanda Ivette Gonzalez.
    
    Some other Spanish names are:  Magaly, Maritza, Widilia, Amarylis,
    Madeline, Mirna (or Myrna), Mabel, Adela, Soraida (or Zoraida),
    Vanesa, Ivonne, Elsie, Monserrate, Carlina, Leila, Elba, Elvia,
    Margarita, Raquel, and Evelyn (I can go on and on....).
    
    For males some names are:  Jorge, Francisco, Enrique, Angel, Carlos,
    Abel, Alfredo, Ervin, Edgar, Irvin, Victor, Domingo, Alejandro,
    Benito, Raul, Eladio, Osvaldo, William, and Ramon. 

    
    
    	I LOVE Spanish names.  And for a girl, I've always liked the
    	name Jacintha (I believe it means lavender, or a purple)
   
    	But for a boy, I'm not quite sure...

    Hi,
    
    My fiance' is a Latin American, and I've got a few to add:
    
    He is Cesar Romeo (not as in Juliet, but RoMAo), and I also like
    Angelica, Ester, Milagro, Oscar, and Esbetilda.  Pronounced 
    correctly, they are all beautiful names.

    I have seen many Spanish names here, not all of them correctly spelled,
    but after all, there is no correct syntax when talking about proper
    names right?. :-)

    In most Spanish speaking countries, you name a person by his/her name
    according to names like the ones listed below, not by a nickname. For
    example, when you are calling someone Pancho, his name is Francisco, for
    Beto, his name is Alberto, for girls, Maripili, is a nickname for Mar�a
    del Pilar, etc.
    In the US for example you can actually name a person Tony instead
    of Anthony, this is not possible there. Somebody named Antonio although
    he can be called To�o, his name will always be Antonio. Also, it is
    very common to have more than one first name.

    Also, in different countries there are different names even if they
    speak the same language. For example, in Spain some names could be 
    widely used, but in Mexico not as much and in Argentina some might
    never heard of them and vice versa, etc. They might even spell the same
    name differently. These names are widely used in most Spanish speaking
    countries (with the correct spelling, including the accents):
