Re: Serious You Say, You Think
GIRLS
This is my daughter, Joanna.
You say: That's cute, it's nice to see.
You think: I just hope she doesn't get nicknamed 'Jo'.This is my daughter, Nora.
You say: How sweet - I love it!
You think: Just what I said - Nora's really grown on me lately.This is my daughter, Lena.
You say: What a great name!
You think: I really like it.This is my daughter, Amelia.
You say: What a lovely, classy name.
You think: I just hope it doesn't start to get trendy, since it is starting to get popular.This is my daughter, Gemma.
You say: How pretty!
You think: Just what I said - it's very pretty.This is my daughter, Genevieve.
You say: What a gorgeous name!
You think: Seriously, Genevieve is awesome. Nicknames are iffy, and I'm not so keen on it if she goes by 'Gen,' but 'Eve' or 'Evie' would be nice, and the full name is, again, awesome.Boys
This is my son, Jacob.
You say: You can't go wrong with Jacob.
You think: Which is probably why everyone is using it...This is my son, Benjamin.
You say: Classic! And deservedly so, it's very nice.
You think: Too common, but it is very nice.This is my son, Jasper.
You say: What a great name - I love it!
You think: Yay!This is my son, Joel.
You say: I like it.
You think: It's not my style, but I wouldn't mind seeing it on someone else's kid.This is my son, Jesse.
You say: That's a nice name.
You think: Uncle Jesse, because I'm a product of the '90s.This is my son, Baron.
You say: How regal - well, it's definitely a strong name!
You think: A bit too regal - give your son a name, not a title.This is my son, Cullen.
You say: That's interesting - where did you get it from?
You think: Twilight fan?This is my son, Collin.
You say: Aw, that's a nice name!
You think: Not much one way or the other, though it's leagues better than Jayden and names of that ilk, so I'm glad to see it.This is my son, Ezra.
You say: What a fun name to say - it sounds so cool!
You think: Too bad some people won't recognize the name and will assume he's a girl based on the phonetics. (It totally does sound cool, though.)This is my son, Elias.
You say: Oh, that used to be one of my favorites!
You think: And I still think it's nice, as long as he doesn't go by 'Eli'.
