"This is my daughter, Cora Marigold."
You say: Wow, how unusual. Hi Cora.
You think: Marigold is NMSAA, and as lovely as our BtN poster Cora is, the name is ick to me in the same way that Olga and Gretchen are -- I prefer Cara, Clara, Corinne, etc. It's kind of nice and refreshing in an old-fashioned sense, but I generally just don't like it.
"These are my twin daughters, Georgina Claire and Veronica Belle. We call them Georgie and Ronnie."
You say: Hi.
You think: Everything ties together well -- the sibset, the middle names to their first names... I can't stand Georgie and Ronnie, they just seem grating to me. I'd love Georgia as a nickname, or even Georgia instead of Georgina. Veronica is pretty enough, and if it were to have a nickname, I'd likely go with Nika and spell it Veronika, which I prefer. But, hey, could be a lot worse -- I just don't think the nicknames age well. :)
"This is my son, Finnian Seamus."
You say: Hi Finnian! What a nice name!
You think: Love, love, love, love Finnian. Seamus is an interesting middle name, I'm not particularly a fan but it fits with the first name.
"This is my son, Calvin Matthias, and my daughter, Annika Olive."
You say: My brother's name is Calvin. I really like both your names. Oh, and, uh, hi.
You think: Very nice all around. Especially love Annika Olive -- Olive is a bit GP/NMS but it fits.
"This is my daughter, Zipporah Imogen. We call her Zip."
You say: Hi, Zip. Zipporah Imogen is really pretty.
You think: Yeah, I love the combo but Zip seems a little ridiculous to me. I can't think of a nickname for Zipporah that does work, though, but I think it can stand alone.
"These are my sons, Owen Gregory and Archer Patrick."
You say: Hiya.
You think: Archer is interesting, and I like the middle names where they are. Not a fan of Owen.
"This is my daughter, Junia Hermione."
You say: Junia is pretty! Hello.
You think: It is. Hermione kind of irritates me just because of so many people talking of wanting to name their kids after Harry Potter characters, but it's a nice enough name regardless.
"This is my son, Mordecai Daniel."
You say: I LOVE THE NAME MORDECAI OH MY GOD I'M SO HAPPY I MET ONE. YOU JUST MADE MY LIFE.
You think: ^
