This is my son: Romeo "Rome"
You Say: What a sweet little boy.
You Think: A little too Shakespeare for my liking, that's going to be a tough name to bear in middle school. His nickname is much better.
This is my son: Tristan
You Say: He has a wonderful name.
You Think: A little feminine, but nice.
This is my son: Paris
You Say: Hi, Paris.
You Think: Thanks to Paris Hilton, that name has been offically ruined for me.
This is my daugther: Isolde [prn: i-sold/ee-sold, or ee-sol-day]
You Say: What a beautiful daughter and name to match.
You Think: Interesting but very pretty.
This is my daugther: Paradis [prn: paradee or paradiss not para-dice, this is a french LN & name of a town :)]
You Say: I've never heard that name, where did it come from?
You Think: I wonder how many people will pronounce that right the first time...
This is my son: Michelangelo "Michael"
You Say: Aw, is he named after the painter?
You Think: What's wrong with Michael?
You Say: What a sweet little boy.
