Helpopposite of elitist
in reply to a message by Akua Topaz
In reality, I am incredibly sick of BTN and only keep coming back because I can't get my mind off more and more and more names and I always other namenerds to talk to, and there are a few posters who have opinions worth reading anymore. Do you guys realize how repetitive you are? Here is the formula for 80%+ of your opinions:
(legit name) (legit name) : Good / NMS but good
(legit name misspelled even if you do not like it spelled right and even if it is unpronouncable in english the normal way) : Whyyyyy [correct spelling] would have been sooo much better
(surname at all): Bad if it is not honoring
(word name that is not Rose or Grace or whatever) : Bad
(unless you are a little bit daring and say 'you know I kind of like ocean or nightingale or whatever and then get really bold by shortlisting them)
(typical of black people) : Stripperish / Cruel
It isn't that you do not have any rights to your opinions. It's just that they are very rarely interesting at all. It's like being stuck in a time warp. You drive all the interesting people to frustration and/or leaving.
I guess I should try not to come back this time. So long, everyone. I don't think I'll be missed much; I have been pretty cranky/bratty lately, and besides I didn't sit around asking opinions of Charlotte Louisa (lovely! OR fine; I'm sick of Charlotte) and James Frederick (very handsome; [frederick is nms but fine] OR [frederick is sooo handsome] and I love James, sooo glad it's not on a girl) all the time. (James and Charlotte *swoons* what a lovely sibset!!)
I must understand that I have no idea what you mean by formatted sillily.
Not that I care pretty much at all, at this point.

I feel the same way sometimes
I used to be heavily into traditional names, but recently my list has gotten wackier just because old-fashioned names that are spelled perfectly correctly are kinda boring after a while. I've been trying to expand my horizons and I encourage others to do the same.

Please don't leave.
Maybe take a while to come back, but please don't leave. I don't want Lillian to leave, either.

It would be a terrible shame for you to go.
Your posts are always, interesting, vibrant and intelligent (even if a little head-strong at times :) ).

I agree
For the most part, your names are totally not my style, but that doesn't stop me from thinking that 99% of your combos are really awesome.
I'm sorry that you think the opinions here are getting to be predictable, though I can see where you're coming from. But it's posters like you who would suggest something other than 'Charlotte' or 'James' to pair with those first names I haven't yet settled on a combo for, so I'd hate to see you go.

Tippins,
Have you discovered BabyNameWizard.com? (I sound like an ad haha). It's a good source for baby name fix and opinions that isn't in a messageboard feedback so its not so much like an opinion poll i.m.o.
EDITED: Because I meant Wizard, not world

0h well, why don't you just exchange email addresses with the people whose opinions you value and leave this board? Sorry, not trying to be mean, just an honest question. We have email addresses and msn messengers you really don't need to come here if you don't want to.
I like word names such as Snow, Egypt, Remember and Sky and a few last names as first names. But yeah, I dislike misspelled names. and even if I don't like the original name I still think Caitlin is better than Kayghtelynne.
