This is my daughter Lydia Veronica.
You say: Hi, Lydia. Both your names are so pretty!
You think: I'm not sure how I feel about pairing them, as they end the same way.
This is my son Rhys Andrew.
You say: Hi, Rhys.
You think: Wow...you were trying for stereotypical Anglo-Saxon boring as all getout name, weren't you?
This is my daughter Allison Montana, nn Ally.
You say: Ally, that's such a cute name.
You think: But [i]what[/i] is [i]up[/i] with Montana?
This is my son Ewan Callum.
You say: Hi, Ewan. I hope I'm pronouncing and spelling your name right.
You think: Because you have a long life ahead of you of people getting it wrong. (I do like the name, though, and it's better than a boring name people spell/pronounce correctly all the time.)
This is my daughter Jordan Deirdre.
You say: Hey, Jordan. Funny thing, I was almost named Jordan!
You think: Jordan's a cool name, but I'm not so hot on Deirdre...probably because all I can think is "tender and frightened, like a tiny white rabbit!" and immediately associating someone with MP isn't really a good thing. I'm also not sure about pairing them. Jordan is a pretty boyish name, and Deirdre is really girly. They clash really really hard.
This is my daughter Aurelia Lexine.
You say: Hi, Aurelia. Can I call you Lia?
You think: Lexine? Like...Maxine? Huh. Okay then.
