This is my daughter Aino Leah. (Aino is prn. EYE-noh)
You say: Hi, Aino.
You think: I know, Leah. I know what you did last summer. I know what you're thinking. (Aino is nmsaa, and Leah is nice + very pretty.
This is my son Vincent Rowan (nn Vince).
You say: Hello, Vincent. Oh, whoops! Sorry, forgot your nickname.
You think: I refuse to call him Vince...it ruins perfectly good Vincent. I like both Vincent & Rowan, and they go together well.
These are my twin daughters, Sarah Valentina and Emilia Alessandra.
You say: Hello, Sarah & Emilia.
You think: Valentina Sarah would flow better. Valentina is beautiful! I love it! Val is nice. Emilia Alessandra is quite a mouth-full...since I prefer Alessandra, how about another first name? Perhaps...shorter?
This is my son Ethan Chase.
You say: Hello, Ethan.
You think: Ethan is nmsaa, and Chase is nice, if not a bit used.
This is my daughter Ingrid Agata.
You say: Hello, Ingrid.
You think: I can't think of any good nicknames to come out of that...I am sick of Ingrid, and the rest of those weird "I" names everyone likes...Agata is fine, but nms.
And this is my youngest son, Shane Dustin.
You say: Hello, Shane.
You think: Good thing it's not Dustin Shane...sounds like Dustin' Shame. It's ok...not a favorite.
