Re: Stealing Caroline's idea... You say / you think with my fave names
in reply to a message by Laura
This is my son Dylan:
You say: Cute name
You think: Leave it in the 90s please
This is my daughter Maisie:
You say: Oh how adorable.
You think: It is. I love this name, though I don't know how well it works on an adult.
This is my son Jack:
You say: Great name
You think: Very popular now, but still great.
This is my daugher Elanor (nn Ellie):
You say: Very pretty name
You think: It's better spelled correctly.
This is my son Thomas (nn Tom):
you say: Nice name.
You think: I prefer Thomas to Tom or Tommy, which are just boring imo.
This is my daughter Emily (nn Millie):
You say: Cute name.
You think: Emily is way over done and Millie is cute but why not as a nn to another name that's not as common like Amelia, Millicent, Mildred, etc.
This is my son Oliver:
You say: Great name!
You think: It is.
This is my daughter Alice:
You say: Pretty name.
You think: It is. Not beautiful or terribly spunky, but a good, classic name that's not overdone.
This is my son Alex (first name Alexander):
You say: Nice name.
You think: Overused but still a great name.
This is my daughter Ayla:
You say: Beautiful name!
You think: It is. I love this name.
