I mean come on, there are people who named their kids Kayghtelynne (seriously, I know a girl who spells her name that way), is their opinion more valuable or important just because they actually went through the process of naming a child? That argumentation is just ridiculous.
Yes, she wanted to honor her father which is nice. But she could have done that a million other ways. She could have waited for a boy to name or she could have gone with Charlotte, Charlene, Charlotta, Carlotta Charlize, Charla, Carla, Carlotta, Carline, Caroline, Carolina etc I mean the possibilities are endless. Charles is hideous on a girl.
and you (Lillian) are very very rude.

Her father's name wasn't Charlotte
or Charlene Charlotta Carlotta Charlize Charla Carla Carlotta [again, you said] Carline Caroline or Carolina. She wanted to honor him with his name. I can see that and I don't even know her.
And if you (Lily8) don't get that then you are very very insensitive.
Also impertinent. I'm very certain I'm much older than you. So there. :p

I can't believe how narrow minded you are. Sorry, but this is YOUR opinion. YOU think that people should use the full name when they're honoring another person. YOU think Charles is fine on a girl.
I think that Charles isn't nice on a girl. I think that people can use variants on a name when they are honoring another person.
You see? TWO opinions. two DIFFERENT opinions. Did I ever say that your opinion is wrong? NO. Opinions can't be wrong because they're subjective. They are supposed to be because they are opinions and they reflect what ONE person thinks.
and YOU don't have the right to call me insensitive just because I dislike Charles on a girl no matter what. I can of course understand why they chose Charles for their daughter I understand why they were using it and I accept their choice but I still dislike it. Do you get it?
I hope that last sentence was a joke, really. Otherwise it's just ridiculous. Age doesn't make you more intelligent or your opinion more valuable than mine.

Like Chrisell, I strongly suspect you of not having read my other responses before posting this.
I specifically said I do not advocate Charles-on-a-girl. Pay some damn attention. What I tried to point out is that there can be perfectly reasonable explanations why someone would choose that, and I wish those reasons could be acknowledged. I just wanted y'all to think! Other respondents in this thread have said, I get what you're saying and I still don't like it, and that's fine! That's all I ever wanted! Why is that so damn hard?
You called me rude. I called you insensitive and impertinent. Of course there's ridiculousness involved. This whole frakkin thread's gotten ridiculous.

Excuse me, I DID pay attention to what you were saying. I read everything you had to say on this topic.
I also know that you are not a fan of Charles on a girl and that you were only trying to say that there was reasoning behind their choice. And do you know what? I got it. I got exactly what you mean.
But I don't care WHY they chose it. The question was whether we liked the name or not and I just dislike Charles on the girl. I considered the honoring part but I still dislike it.
I know that you only wanted people to see why they chose the name but most people don't change their opinion on a name just because it has meaning to somebody else.
I don't know if you read my answer properly but I did mention that I indeed considered the honoring part and that I still dislike it.
Nobody had a problem with you saying what was on your mind the thing that bothered me was HOW you said it.
You have been extremely rude and insulting. You called people name- Nazis and now you use "damn". What's wrong with you? I understand that you apologized for the name-Nazi part but something like that is just hard to take back. Most people wouldn't dare say stuff like that. I'm from Germany as well and maybe you don't understand how extremely insulting something like that is. You are extremely rude and thoughtless and just trying to defend your opinions all of the time.
I don't know what to say. You're correcting other people's spelling mistakes yet you aren't even able to watch your own language.
I may have called you rude but that's not a swear word as far as I'm concerned. And it's the truth.

You're relatively new here. You are at something of a disadvantage in arguments about my language because you have no idea the bombs I've set off before now. How I said what I said was much cleaner than what I've said in the past. I didn't even say fuck once.
Except that one.
I watch my own language very closely. Now you watch this:
I'm done with you. *poof*

Wow. I'd be embarrassed to be talking like that. Well, I guess it's not my problem.

I guess it's just to each their own. I personally would have gone with something feminine like Charlotte to honor Charles (just like my uncle wanted to use Olivia to honor his father, Oliver), but obviously she felt different. Oh well, we can't do anything about that now, the baby is already named. But yeah, even though I wish she had chosen a more feminine name, I see your point :)

Thank you, Joan-Ay, that is very kind of you
and very civilized. More civilized than me at this point. I appreciate your kindness.
Thanks again.
Also, it's snowing in Houston right now. Nickel sized flakes this afternoon. It was magic. Just so you know.
Thanks one more time.

You're very welcome!
And yes I heard about the snow! How cool is that?! My friend Delores was telling me about it just a little bit ago :D
