Re: Heaven
Why do all these new people come here and act all huffy about their kids' names? Is it because they've had bad experiences on other boards? I've never understood this.

I think they're trying to leave comments. They probably click on "heaven" and read comments about it, and there isn't a clear way to reply, so they come to the forum.

yeah I think so tooThe abrupt way these messages start, as though there is already a conversation going on about them, really makes me think they think they are responding to the comments left on the name entry. And then they probably realize their mistake and get embarrassed and never come back.

Regarding "one-post wonders"When these types of posts surface, I always find myself thinking that:
a.) one should have to have a login - no guests
b.) one should not be allowed to start a new thread on the day one created the login
c.) one should have to respond to 10 other threads before being allowed to start one's first thread. Weed 'em out, I tell ya!

I don't know why people do this either. If they chose the name they should feel secure with it. The fact that they come here and get "huffy" about it shows that they have a twinge of doubt and just want people to know the whole back story so that somehow they feel better that other people feel better. If the name can't stand on its own, then it probably isn't a good name to most people.

They almost never post again either. One post wonders.
If the OP is actually reading: When I was like, 11/12, I thought Heaven (and Angel) were the best names ever. I had this bizarre story idea about a girl named Heaven who immaculately conceived a daughter named Angel. There was no explanation as to why, I just thought it was a good mother/daughter set. Haha.
