This is my daughter
Lydia Veronica.
You say: Hi,
Lydia. Both your names are so pretty!
You think: I'm not sure how I feel about pairing them, as they end the same way.
This is my son
Rhys Andrew.
You say: Hi,
Rhys.
You think: Wow...you were trying for stereotypical Anglo-Saxon boring as all getout name, weren't you?
This is my daughter
Allison Montana, nn
Ally.
You say:
Ally, that's such a cute name.
You think: But [i]what[/i] is [i]up[/i] with
Montana?
This is my son
Ewan Callum.
You say: Hi,
Ewan. I hope I'm pronouncing and spelling your name right.
You think: Because you have a long life ahead of you of people getting it wrong. (I do like the name, though, and it's better than a boring name people spell/pronounce correctly all the time.)
This is my daughter
Jordan Deirdre.
You say: Hey,
Jordan. Funny thing, I was almost named
Jordan!
You think:
Jordan's a cool name, but I'm not so hot on Deirdre...probably because all I can think is "tender and frightened, like a tiny white rabbit!" and immediately associating someone with MP isn't really a good thing. I'm also not sure about pairing them.
Jordan is a pretty boyish name, and
Deirdre is really girly. They clash really really hard.
This is my daughter
Aurelia Lexine.
You say: Hi,
Aurelia.
Can I call you
Lia?
You think:
Lexine? Like...Maxine? Huh. Okay then.
