I'm casting another vote for River Tamblyn. That's really pretty. *considers stealing it*
And as for the whole debate over whether or not you should name your children after characters...I think it's a great idea. Of course, my husband and I plan to name our daughter Kaylee Jayne if we have a girl.
Incedentally, we plan on Logan Connor if we have a boy...Wolverine and Highlander. Now THAT'S fandom.

Cauis and Chrisisall.
I'm amazed you both liked Persephoney as a name! I made this suggestiong to my girlfriend about kids/girls names and she just gave me a look that could cut through high grade perspex and said DEFINATELY not!!!!
River and Persephoney work really well together in terms of the Myth - which is why I thought it had a nice ring to it, but *Shruggs* there's some good ones here I must admit....
Yolande! That's a good alternative :D also it's my mums name.

I'd just like to point out that the usual English spelling is Persephone (no 'y'). With the 'y', the name ends 'phoney', which is not a good thing.
Anyhow, I really like the River Tamblyn idea. I don't think that name would lead to any significant grief among her young peers.
Besides, kids can make a joke of anybody's name if they want to. Just ask any Donald born after the mid 1950's. Perfectly good name ruined by an irascible cartoon duck!

Ain't about you, Jayne. It's about what they need.

How about River Miranda Sherwood? It a works.
whoever came up with the name "Persephone" for a childs name should be shot, or at least defiled by a genetically altered rhino for even suggesting that name.
Some of those other names suggested will only get your daughter into fights at school.

River Haven Sherwood?
It was Kal-El, Superman's Kryptonian name. :) I'm not sure if he went for the hyphen, though.
I like River Haven!
Kal-El? You mean the Superman Kal-El? OMG! his kid is gonna get his butt kicked by everyone at school!

Awww, such a good idea! One long day in the future, I'll certainly consider naming my little girl River. It's such a pretty name. And in high school, at least, rivers are important symbols in like, every book you read. She'll be a popular english student! Also agreed, a little martial arts go a long way! There's nothing to be worried about with name-calling. Heck, I was supposed to be named Stevie after Stevie Nicks (who I adore), but my parents decided to name me after their favorite Fleetwood Mac song "Sara". So, having a history of your name is just sooo cool! Always a good discussion topic. I kinda wished I was named Stevie now, it's cute.
I like River Tamblyn, or River Ariel, or River Miranda, But River Mei is such a cute idea. And she(possibly?) will be a little sister, too, right? Even better! It's sort of like 'River May', which I think has a nice flow to it. And Sherwood is a pretty last name, too!
