[Opinions] From 'Yes!', a Filipino Magazine
'Yes!' is a kind of celebrity magazine that my uncle sent my mother (they're Filipinos) one time last May. At first I thought of just listing the names I thought were unusual, but I thought you might like to see names that people (@ least in the US) think are oldfashioned or regular. (I'm really hoping some of these are nn's the celebrities themselves cooked up!) Sorry that it's so long, but believe me, you gotta take a look at some of these!
