Re: Opinions on these names
in reply to a message by simran
Adelynne - I'm not sure how it's meant to be pronounced, but I don't like the spelling regardless. I like Adeline or Adelin / Adelyn depending on the pronunciation.
Asa - Too short
Benjamin - It's pretty good but I like Ben a lot more than the full Benjamin.
Blaine - Bad, sounds slimy
Connor - It's fine but I vastly prefer Conor
Dayton - Ohio. Not the worst place name though. Day is a good nickname
Ethan - I like this
Evelyn - I know it's popular now but I still think it sounds dated. Not bad
Finn - Pretty good
Grayson - Alright
Jamison - Not bad but I prefer the look of Jameson
Jensen - Okay
Kamryn - I don't like this but I like Cameron
Lincoln - Not namey enough
Madelyn - Okay (I prefer Madeline but if you want to pronounce it with "lin" then Madelyn is the way to go)
Paige - A millenial wearing uggs and drinking a pumpkin spice latte
Patrick - It's okay but I don't really like the "trick" part. In my accent it always sounds like Pa-trick. It gets shortened to Pat or Rick but when you say the full name "trick" is what jumps out.
Sasha - Pretty good
Steven - Okay, it's definitely "just some guy" but it's one of the better "just some guy" names.
Winston - Okay but it sounds like a dog to me
Zander - Pretty good
Asa - Too short
