[Opinions] JEEZ LOUISE!
I actually agree with most of you. I wasn't trying to say that this a terrible set. I said they weren't bad and maybe I should have went as far as to say that they are nice in the OP.
I do not feel that they did a *bad* job, I'm just a bit jealous at the opportunity to name 3 kids at once and feel that it's such a waste of a naming opportunity to have named them so "regularly" (for a lack of better description). I am absolutely and completely sure that the whole world like's thier names better than mine or even most of the names here. I just think of this board as my little fantasy place where names are loved for more than just thier familiarity. I am sorry if I came off as a name elitist who dislikes people who name with the trends or who turns her nose up to names randomly because they are "too common".
I just thought it would be fun to hear what variations of opinions and renaming we here would have come up with. That's all. Next time, I will be sure to post very much more clearly my intentions and thoughts!

p.s. it did turn out to be an interesteing post despite the direction though, didn't it?? :-)

Don't worry, it's nothing you said. Nobody's viewing you as evil. It's just a general vibe that these boards give off that some people are starting to get sick of, and it happened to be your post that turned into a discussion about it. I hope you don't take it too harshly!

Thanks I was starting to be a little hurt because I post alot and I didn't think that I was the snobby type. Granted, I prefer the more exotic and unusual names, but I can appreciate just about anything... I wasn't dissing the parents, just saying I'd dye for an opportunity like that and it's almost painful (for me) to see such a chance go to conventional names....
