Names I've given to my dogs

Anja is one of the most internatioanl of several versions of Ann/Anna now being imported, also including Anya and Annika.

Ash has Southern charm plus the arboreal-nature appeal. Plus your little boy will prize Ash as the name of the hero of the Pokemon cartoons. Ash can also be a dashing short form of Asher, Ashton, or any other "Ash" name.

As trendy as the chic Colorado ski resort and film festival, Aspen is fast becoming more popular for girls than for boys, but this nature name would work equally well for either.

Extremely amiable, open-sounding surname that's gradually being taken over by the girls.

As surname Lane becomes more popular, so too does this variant. Regardless, it does create the possibility for spelling confusion.
