Re: You Say, You Think
This is my daughter Echo Anthea.
You say: Hi Echo!
You think: Echo is lovely for a cat or something, but terrible for a real person. Anthea is really pretty--the more I think about it, the more I like it.This is my son Raphael Harpo, we call him Harpo.
You say: Hi Harpo!
You think: I love Raphael! Harpo is truly hideous. Ew.This is my son Alison Bartholomew.
You say: Nice to meet you, Alison!
You think: It's a truly hideous and cruel thing to name your son Alison. It's a form of Alice! Why would anyone name their son a form of Alice (even though the site says it's unisex)? Bartholomew is ugly.This is my daughter Leah Adelaide:
You say: Nice to meet you, Leah!
You think: Not the best flow but both names are gorgeous.This is my son Karl Cináed.
You say: Hi Karl!
You think: Karl looks tryndeigh and I hate Carl and all variants. Cinaed is just weird.This is my daughter Ingrid Brunhild.
You say: Hi Ingrid!
You think: I love Ingrid! Brunhild is laughably bad.This is my son Lyle Delmar.
You say: Hi Lyle!
You think: Lyle is ugly--slippery and slimy sounding. Delmar has a nasty sound but a nice meaning.This is my daughter Thea Camille.
You say: Hi Thea!
You think: I LOVE Camille! I really dislike Thea and wish it were a nickname.This is my daughter Sarah Elaine:
You say: Hi Sarah!
You think: Gorgeous name, though I'd prefer Sarah Elena.This is my son Rafael Cesaire.
You say: Hi Rafael!
You think: Yes! Rafael as a first name--I love it! Cesaire is bad. This is my daughter Lucy Hermione.
You say: Hi Lucy!
You think: Lucy is adorable, but so cutesy for a full name. Hermione is awful; it was ugly before Harry Potter and is now waaaay too tied to such. The double -ee endings sound bad.This is my son Rylan Patrokles.
You say: Hi Rylan!
You think: Gag me with a spoon. Rylan is a surname and what the hell is a Patrokles?This is my son Leonidas Beowulf, we call him Leon.
You say: Hi Leon!
You think: Ewwwwww. Leonidas is just too much (though I LOVE Leo) and I hate Leon. Beowulf has got to be a joke.
