Re: You Say, You Think
This is my son, Caden Noah.
You Say: Hello.
You Think: Gag. This is the fifth little Caden I've met this month. When are people going to realize what a lame ugly trendoid name this is? Doesn't Cade mean, like, rotund or something? Kill me already! Noah is nice, it's a little trendy now but it's a good old-fashioned biblical name.This is my daughter, Rosabella Marie.
You Say: Oh, nice to meet you Rosabella!
You Think: Nice. Rosabella's not something you see very often, it's a little flowery but I think I like it. Lots of nickname potential there. Marie's fillery, but it's one of my very favorites of the filler names.This is my son, Logan Walter.
You Say: How handsome!
You Think: It's kind of handsome. Logan's pretty trendy, but it's always been on my own list as a family name, so I have a hard time classifying it with the others. Walter rocks, I wish I knew more people named it. Walter Logan would be better.This is my daughter, Miranda Scarlett. You can also call her Mimi.
You Say: Oh, how nice! Nice to meet you, Mimi.
You Think: Mimi's so cute, I love it. That rocks. I love Miranda and Scarlett. Scarlett Miranda flows better, but flow doesn't really matter much to me. This is my son, Jason Nathaniel.
You Say: Hello, Jason.
You Think: Ugh. Jason is so boring, and if he goes by "Jase" when he gets older I'll roll my eyes a lot. At least it's a name with some good Greek history and not some silly bastardized Irish nonsense like Cade or Caden or whatever. Nathaniel is good, I've always liked it a lot.This is my daughter, Willa Elaine.
You Say: Oh, that's beautiful!
You Think: It is. Willa is so nice, and so is Elaine, and they go together excellently. How refreshing!This is my son, Gabriel Rowan.
You Say: Neat
You Think: I like Gabriel well enough, it's really trendy though. I'm really, really tired of Rowan, especially how many people on BtN approve of it.This is my daughter, Bernadette Elizabeth.
You Say: Awesome.
You Think: Bernadette! It's so ugly and old-fashioned! How wonderful to see it on a kid! I love it! Elizabeth is fillery again, but it goes really well with Bernadette. Yay!This is my daughter, Victoria Heidi (I don't get offended very easily).
You Say: Hello, Victoria.
You Think: Victoria is SO nice. I hate Tori and Vicky though, I hope she never gets called that. I hate Heidi, but I'm so glad to see it used I'm going to approve immensely here.This is my daughter, Natalie Maree.
You Say: Hello Natalie
You Think: Natalie is kind of cool as feminine for Nathan. But boy, is it 80's-tacky. And why is Marie spelled that way?

My mom doesn't like Marie.It's my sister's name. It's pronounced Like Mary only with a huge e sound at the end.
