Re: the twins!
in reply to a message by LaurieC
girls:
Jessica 'Jessi' : Overused for me but it's okay
Camryn 'Cammie or Cam' : Nice name when spelled right :P IT's too popular for me right now but otherwise it's nice
Kayla or Caela 'Kay' : Kayla is Trendy but not too bad. Caela look funny to me, but it could work after a while.
Aubrey : Don't really like it on a girl. Much prefer on a boy. Audrey is nicer for girls.
Melanie 'Mel' : Like Melody or Melissa better for the nn Mel, but it's okay
Katheryn 'Katie': Love
Kelley : nms, but it's okay
Bethany 'Beth' : nms, but again it's okay
Mallory 'Mal' : Well Mal, means "bad" in French, so the nn automatically throws me off. And the Mallory reminds me too much of the babysitters' club
Ann Elise(mn only) : Very Pretty, I like
Shea Lynn (mn only): Don't like the Lynn (and never have) but the Shea is new for me.
boys:
Noah : overused but great name
Caden 'Cade' : too trendy for me, but usable
Liam : one of my favorites but as a nn for William. I like it because the nn canage as he does.
Nicholas 'Cole' : Love Cole. Nicholas inevitabley gets shortened to Nick, which is okay. Like Nico too.
Caylen 'Cayle' like Cale : just stick with Cale... or Caelan. It's pronounced the same but spelled right
Benjamin 'Ben' : Like a lot
Jesse : nms but it's okay
Kellen or Keelin : I think you may mean Keelan... Keelin is generally a girls name. It's along the same lines as Caelan, good but better spelled correctly
Landon : too trendy for me but a good name
Mackenzie 'Mack': Yay! someone has it for a boy. hurrah. Love this on a boy
Dean : nms but it's okay
Keith : classic. nice.
So all in all I like :
Kathryn Ann Elise "Katie" best for girls
and Keith for the boys
