HelpRe: You Say, You Think [girls]
in reply to a message by Sabrina Fair
This is my daugther Castle.
You Say: Hello, Castle.
You Think: And meet my daughter, Town Hall. Or maybe Condo, Condi for short?
This is my daugther Adventure.
You Say: And I'm sure getting to know you will be an adventure.
You Think: Yikes.
This is my daugther Neverending.
You Say: Hello, Neverending.
You Think: I barely pulled off saying that sentence with a straight face...this name will lose its charm when she is fourteen and racking up your phone bills with Neverending conversations.
This is my daugther Excalibur.
You Say: Hey, Excalibur.
You Think: I guess if she really hated it she could go by Callie...It's sad that the first thing that struck me about this name was "That's not a girl's name, it's way too boyish. Honestly, Madison, Ashley, Elliot, Excalibur, will it never end!" Oy. One track mind.
This is my daugther Firefly.
You Say: Hi, Firefly!
You Think: Actually, I like it a lot, I think it's fun. I'd prefer it as a NN.
This is my daugther Camelot.
You Say: Hey, Camelot.
You Think: That's taking place names to a whole new level.
This is my daugther Galilee.
You Say: Hi, Galilee. I like your name.
You Think: So I do, in that it sounds a lot more name-y than the others and is actually quite pretty. (It reminds me of Galia, too.) But it's also wicked religious for my taste. Just kind of...in your face.
This is my daugther Moon.
You Say: Hey, Moon.
You Think: Feminist hippie overload! Red alert! All hands on deck!
This is my daugther Hanako.
You Say: Hey, Hanako. That's a lovely name.
You Think: I hope she's part- or fully Asian, otherwise it just seems like part of the fantasy-Asia obsession (anime craze et al) that I see everywhere...meh. It is a pretty name, though.
This is my daugther Gethsemane.
You Say: Hello, Gethsemene. Do you have a nickname?
You Think: Pushy, a lot more so than Galilee, and not at all pretty as a name, either (and so long). I feel like if I befriended Gethsemene, she'd start dragging me to church and trying to convince me to go to Love in Action or HA.
This is my daugther Thursday.
You Say: Hey, Thursday!
You Think: I like it a lot. It's fun.
You Say: Hello, Castle.
You Think: And meet my daughter, Town Hall. Or maybe Condo, Condi for short?
