HelpYou say, You think...
There hasn't been one of these in a while as far as I can tell so I've decided to post one. Pretty self explanatory, if you haven't played it before - just 'answer' each 'parent' with your actual answer, and then what you're thinking in your head as you say it.
Thanks!

I really don't mean to offend you!!
Parent 1: Hi, this is my son, Hudson
You say: Great name!
You think: Nice. He's going to be popular: the Hudson Hornet. Very cool.
Parent 2: Hello. This is my daughter, Tegan
You say: What a lovely name.
You think: What does everyone have against this name? It's so sweet.
Parent 3: Hey. I'd like you to meet my son, Dante
You say: Cool name.
You think: Dante was a character in a book I read, it's not to bad but not my style.
Parent 4: Hi. I'd like to indtroduce my daughters, Imogen and Emilie
You say: What lovely girls.
You think: Ugh- Emilie. Imogen gets my vote.
Parent 5: Hey. This is my son Charles - we call him Charlie. And my daughter Evangeline - everyone calls her Evan
You say: How wonderful.
You think: Oh why did you keep talking after "Charlie" I might still have respect for you if you did. I can bearly think of a name worse than Evangeline "Evan". *dry heaves*
Parent 6: Hello, I'd like you to meet my son Emlyn
You say: Wow, interesting name.
You think: Could you not wait to use it until you had a girl? I hope his middle name isn't Anne or something.

Parent 1: Hi, this is my son, Hudson
You say: How handsome.
You think: not really - Hud. It seems heavy.
Parent 2: Hello. This is my daughter, Tegan

Parent 5: Hey. This is my son Charles - we call him Charlie. And my daughter Evangeline - everyone calls her Evan

You think: Why ruin a great name by shortening it to Evan?

You say: Wow, that's different. Is it a family name?

Parent 1: Hi, this is my son, Hudson
You say: Hi Hudson.
You think: It's a lot better than just River.
Parent 2: Hello. This is my daughter, Tegan
You say: Hi Tegan.

You think: Charles and Evangeline are such beautiful and elegant names, why shorten them to such dull nicknames? You may call them Charlie & Evan but I won't.
Parent 6: Hello, I'd like you to meet my son Emlyn
You say: Hi Emlyn, do you know Tegan?
You think: Because they say that a shared problem is a problem halved...
