I know you probably love most of these names and I don't mean any offense by my comments. =)

This is my daughter, Allegiance.
You Say: How nice. Allie for short?
You Think: "Allegiance is my middle name! I mean my first..."

---

This is my daughter, Believe.
You Say: Yes, I believe you.
You Think: Is she trying a Jedi mind trick on me? "You do not need to see her birth certificate"

---

This is my son, Breeze.
You Say: That's a lovely name!
You Think: Lucky kid, some days people will be saying how cool he is and other days, how hot he is. He'll be popular, everyone will 'sea' Breeze. (And onto the next name for more lame jokes)

---

This is my daughter, Copper.
You Say: Oh, I love that name!
You Think: And I do, a lot; I couldn't imagine having to speak to the police though, especially if your last name was Pigg...

---

This is my daughter, Eagle.
You Say: That's cute!
You Think: If I threw her out the window...?

---

This is my daughter, Earth.
You Say: As in the planet?
You Think: I bet she has worms. (My jokes are getting worse, I know)

---

This is my daughter, Essence.
You Say: I named a bike that once *awkward silence*
You Think: 'I named a bike that once', it won't be awkward saying that surely.

---

This is my daughter, Hawk.
You Say: Did I hear that right- Hawk?
You Think: Skating fan or M*A*S*H fan?

---

This is my daughter, Island.
You Say: That's a great name!
You Think: Isle...Landy...I...Lanny...Isley...Deedee *walks away* ...Lan...Andy...Lan-lan...

---

This is my daughter, Life.
You Say: Wow, haven't heard that before.
You Think: Just because you appreciate something doesn't mean you have to name your child after it. I mean I appreciate that dung beetles are useful for the environment but I'm not going to name my child Dung-Beetle.

---

This is my son, Midnight.
You Say: What a great name!
You Think: Oh is that going to be fun when he hits High School! His poor gf.

This is my daughter, North.
You Say: Can you remind me what your last name is again.

---

This is my son, Odyssey.
You Say: As in "space...."?
You Think: You know he's going to get "Odd" at school right?

---

This is my daughter, Quest.
You Say: Quest, you have a fantastic name!...
You Think: ...And an adventurous life ahead of you, full of noble knights and fire-breathing dragons, ancient castles on hill tops and eternal sword fights with enemies and within your heart; or, you know, not.

---

This is my daughter, Seychelles.
You Say: Wow, that's a really interesting name!
You Think: Well, she's going to be independent.

---

I would've liked to have ended on Quest... never mind.
