I'd sure like to nail 'er.

Oops, did I just say that?

Whoa! Lol, my goodness! She was such a beauty, and I wanted to name one of my daughters Elizabeth, I love that name! My mom did not like Elizabeth Taylor, maybe because of her beauty. My mom called her dizzy lizzy and basically forbade me to name my daughter Elizabeth, but I did name her Beth...my mom didn't like that either!!

Wow! I do like her, have seen many of her movies, and think she is uniquely beautiful with her green eyes, but there are so many other actors and actresses that I also admire. I think she just popped into my head as a symbol of female beauty and sexiness. I also like the name Elizabeth. Maybe, because I like traditional English folk music and it reminds me of a name that might have been common historically in England. Haha, how does your mom like the name Scarlett or Scarlett Johanson?
