[Opinions] Re: Jude for a girl
in reply to a message by peonini
Of course, you can ask me why I like a name and what made me choose it! Why is a useful question and you should never be afraid to ask yourself and others about the thoughts/beliefs/motivations behind an action or preference. People have asked why I do or don’t like a name or trend on this site on multiple occasions, and they may or may not agree with my reasoning or taste.
I have asked people’s opinions on names before, and sometimes people do not like the same names I do, but I appreciate the honest feedback and the opportunity to hear opinions expressed that are different from my own. If I ever post a name you dislike, please let me know what you think and why you feel that way. Other people may feel the same way you do, and I post to find out how other people perceive names. I cannot promise to alter my views based on yours, but I am interested in name opinions.
Just because I question the use of Jude on a girl, I am not bashing all the other names you like, your preference in general, or you personally.

I appreciate the kind response. I guess I just see the “why this name when there’s so many beautiful names…” argument as useless and doesn’t really contribute in a helpful way, as it could be asked about any name. And the answers always the same; because I personally like it! I encourage everyone to leave their honest opinions— good or bad— on my posts, this particular question just irks me to be honest.
