You Say: Leander? Wow, you don't hear that everyday!
You Think: Why not Alexander? Or Sander? Or Alex?
"I'd like you to meet my daughters Harmony, Melody and Aria."
You Say: I love the meanings of those names!
You Think: Cute on babies. Not so fun for a teenager or a grown-up.
"It's nice to meet you. These are my daughters Ryan and Evan."

You Think: I really hope they grow up to feminine enough to not be confused with boys.
"Barnabas, say hello. He's a bit shy."
You Say: What a cute name!
You Think: That's really a nice name! I just hope they don't nickname him Barry ..
"Good morning. These are my sons Lazarus and Phoenix."
You Say: Awesome names! Where did you come up with them?
You Think: Really cool sibset!
