This is my son Brooks.
You say: What a nice name!
You think: Meh... not so great. :/
This is my son Rupert.
You say: What a nice name, and it's so adorable!
You think: Ugh, a bit ugly, and makes me think of Stewie's bear on Family Guy.
This is my daughter Chaya.
You say: How pretty! And so unique!
You think: Meh, it's nothing special.
This is my son Leonidas, we call him Lonnie.
You say: Wow, how nice!
You think: Pretentious... and Lonnie's not the best nickname out there. Why not Leo?
This is my daughter Rosetta.
You say: It's a very nice name!
You think: It's a pretty name, and much better than the terrible things people are naming their kids nowadays. (Kaitlyn, Madison, Brayden...)
This is my daughter Lucinda, we call her Cindy.
You say: I really like that name! How pretty!
You think: I like the name Lucinda a lot, but I'm not big on the nickname Cindy.
This is my son Roark.
You say: Um... that's a nice name.
You think: Isn't that a gym leader or something on the annoying kids TV show Pokemon?
This is my son Artemis.
You say: Ooh. That's very nice.
You think: Ick...
This is my daughter Euphrasia.
You say: That is very pretty!
You think: Weird on an actual person, but I like it. I wonder if she can spell her name right.
This is my daughter Providence.
You say: What a beautiful name!
You think: It's pretty for a place name, but it's very high on the tacky factor-- actually, it's too high on the tacky factor.
This is my son Bob, and it's his legal name.
You say: Well, hi Bob. You have a nice name.
You think: Bob? As a legal name? Are you kidding me? He's going to be called Rob or Robert all his life!
This is my daughter Filomena, we call her Minnie.
You say: Hi, Minnie! You have a very nice name.
You think: Minnie Mouse-- very high associations. And I like the name Filomena a lot. Philomena's a 'prettier' spelling in my opinion.
This is my daughter Chrysanthe.
You say: What a beautiful name!
You think: Huh...?
