This is my daughter, Genevieve Hailey.
You say: Lovely name!
You think: Don't combine an older name with a modern name.
Meet my daughters, Lily Annabella and Molly Alexandra.
You say: It is wonderful meeting you two!
You think: Hmmmmm... interesting combos.
This is my daughter, Margaret Mary Alina.
You say: Those are three of my favorite names, you know.
You think: Two middle names? Why give someone two middle names?
This is my daughter, Emmeline Norah.
You say: Do you prefer to be called Emmeline or Emmy or Em?
You think: Norah? Well, at least it's not her first name.
Meet my daughters, Laurel Sophia and Anwen Matilda.
You say: Your names are lovely, girls.
You think: Anwen... well, it's unique. I've never heard that one before.
Meet my daughters, Alexandra Fable and Hermione Cecile.
You say: It's lovely to meet you two lovely girls.
You think: Fable... strange. Hermione... I wouldn't name my girl that. Cecile... hmmmm... that's a little... awkward. Alexandra is the most normal name.
