Re: 20 Questions Every Baby Namer Should Ask
in reply to a message by Gaia
1. I lean more toward plain, but I wouldn't want it to be TOO plain. My name is pretty plain.
2. Past. My name is rooted in the past.
3. Slow, as in longer. My name is slow.
4. No story. My name has a personal story.
5. Conventionally attractive. I think my name is this.
6. Traditionalist. My name is traditionalist.
7. I like Luna so culturally ambiguous. I'm not sure what my name is.
8. Flow >>> I think my name has flow.
9. Easy. My name is pretty easy, I think.
10. Individual, all the way. My first name is individual, while my middle name is family.
11. Long. My name is long.
12. Gender-distinct >>> My name is gender-distinct as long as you don't give me a stupid nickname.
13. Up to the child. I wouldn't choose a name based on nicknames because I think that's dumb. Also, I was named that way, so I guess I have a personal vendetta.
14. Cold, I guess? I think my name leans cold.
15. I don't get what this means.
16. Semi-rare. I wouldn't want to choose a name everyone is using, but I also wouldn't want it to be a name that makes people go, "Huh?" I like the idea of choosing a name outside the top 1000. My name is popular.
17. In between. I don't really care if my grandma knows it, but most of the names invented in the last 20 years suck. My name is old.
18. I don't really get what this means with regard to names.
19. Beauty, if we're just talking names. I'm not sure where my name falls.
20. Quiet, I guess? This question doesn't really make sense.
