Re: You Say/ You Think - all boys (long)
in reply to a message by Caroline Mae
This is my son Linus John Paul
say: Hello, Linus.
think: I like it, its cute. John-Paul would have been better, imo. Sounds more like one name, usually don't care for two mm.
This is my son Ezra Sergius Karol
say: Hi Ezra.
think: Ezra who-de-who? Then I'd be thinking of Ezra Pound.
This is my son Isaac Ariel we call him Ike.
say: Hehe, I like Ike! (yes, I am a dork)
think: I like it. But Ariel will always be a mermaid.
This is my son Russell Ira
say: Nice to meet you.
think: Something about Russell reminding me of russet potatoes and Idaho and Ira being close to Ida. Maybe Russell can russell us up some grub! (we've established I am a dork)
This is my son Curtis Florian
say: Hi.
think: Gag me.
This is my son Leonti Gamaliel we call him Leo
say: Leo! I love the name Leo!
think: I love the name Leo...esp in this case since it's the only part of his name I can say. Why not Leopold? They never use Leopold.
This is my son Ezekiel Conrad we call him Zeke
say: Nice to meet you Zeke.
think: Cute name, but Conrad doesn't fit.
This is my son Isidore Ignatius we call him Dory.
say: Hi Dory.
think: Aye, Aye captain. Cause of the I's. It would make sense as I was thinking it.
This is my son Augustine Jude we call him Gus
say: Gus! Love his name!
think: I LOVE Gus! But damn it, why don't people use Augustus?!? I like this name a lot.
This is my son Elliott Ambrose
say: I really like his name!
think: I really like this name. Don't like the spelling.
This is my son Eliezer Luke we call him Eli
say: Hi Eli.
think: Thank goodness his nn is Eli, it would take a few trys to get the name right.
say: Hello, Linus.
think: I like it, its cute. John-Paul would have been better, imo. Sounds more like one name, usually don't care for two mm.
