Re: You say, You think
1. This is my daughter Hadley.
You say: What a pretty little girl...
You think: ... with such an unfortunate name...2. These are my triplets. My two daughters are Guinevere and Lucia and my son Greyson.
You say: Howdy, kids.
You think: I don't like any of the names individually, and they sound even more awkward as a set.3. This is my daughter Rosalia.
You say: Hey, Rosie.
You think: Not bad. At least it's pretty.4. These are my triplet daughters Brynn, Ainsley, and Lilia. Lilia is pronounced Lie-lee-uh.
You say: Oh. Ok.
You think: No. It's pronounced Li-lee-uh. Good luck with that, you weirdo. Brynn is so plain and blah. Ainsley is too trendy and sounds way too much like anus.5. These are my twin son and daughter. My son is Sky and daughter is Misty.
You say: How nice.
You think: So you named your kids after your two favorite strippers?6. This is my daughter Elliot.
You say: Hi.
You think: Meh. Definitely could be worse, but why not just give her a girl's name?7. This is my daughter Scarlet.
You say: Hey there.
You think: Blech. I'm so sick of that name.8. These are my twin sons Kyler and Casey.
You say: What cuties!
You think: Casey is cool and solid; Kyler is a trying-to-be-unique combo of Kyle and Tyler, neither of which is even remotely unique. Seems silly.9. These are my triplet daughters Aspen, Sapphira, and September.
You say: Cool.
You think: September is kind of cool; Sapphira is ok but seems a bit contrived; Aspen is going to get teased all her damn life. Poor girl.10. These are my twin daughters Meryl and Catina.
You say: Nice to meet you.
You think: Meryl sounds like a ninety-year-old cat lady while Catina sounds like an evil Russian spy... so, ya, weird set.
