[Opinions] Re: The names this influencer wanted to name her child
in reply to a message by jonesilove
Aaaaaaa!!! They are so cheesy! I love this list ;)
I feel like Oak and Oaken aren't surprising. Oaklyn, Oaklynn and Oakley, Oakleigh, Oaklee are so trendy right now. I didn't like them at first, but I don't mind them anymore. Oaken's a smidge nerdier because of The Hobbit but whatever. Alder seems vaguely the same style: sounds a bit like a surname (Alden for example) plus a tree.
Grey is also trendy (Grayson, Greyson "Grey").
Sparrrow?! Vessel?! Written?! Belay?! lol
Stori, Valleigh, and Crimsyn...I hate them on some level, but at the same time, I am so fascinated by trendily misspelled word names that are charting lately (like Sevyn, Stormi, Birdie). They do sound namey to me, at least.
I prefer Promise to Oath.
I prefer Eartha and Terra and Neptune to Earth.
Nature is surprisingly common as far as rare word names go. I think it was used something like 80-90 times in 2021. I don't like it, but I don't feel like it's terrible.
Current reminds me of Cardi B naming her kids Kulture and Wave plus the footballer named Fashion. I think of an electric current. Again, I don't like it, but I've seen worse.
Ngl, I've had a name crush on Theory lately. And similarly, I like Reason as a GP...that one's actually sweeter than Treasure in a way. I'd also like Knowledge.
Talon - I think of ripped fabric or of someone who would wear a claw necklace. I don't like it, but I don't think it's worse than Tawny or Fallon or Tanner.
I like Merrick. That one's so ordinary. It reminds me of Maverick, Derek, and Merry, though, for good or ill.
I feel like somehow Windsor is the most embarrassing. I might rather be Royal, but it's a close one.

I have a few GP names on my list so maybe I can’t talk! 🤣🤣🤣 I forgot Cardi actually named her children that. Well they will never have to go by their last initial, that’s for sure.
