These are my daughters, Lily Cecelia, Arianna Jasmine, and Magdalena Violet. We call them Lily, Ari, and Maggie.
You say: What beautiful names! I like the flower theme!
You think: The names are all beautiful on their own, but a little too matchy together what with the flower theme and the ee sound at the end of the two nicknames.
This is my son, Avery Dylan and my daughter, Skyler Addison. We thought unisex names might discourage gender stereotyping.
You say: That's a good idea.
You think: Their teachers get a little surprise every year, wondering if it's a boy Avery/Skyler or a girl Avery/Skyler. Nice enough names, though.
This is my son, Gabriel Joshua. My husband and I named him after our fathers. We call him Gabe.
You say: What a nice name. I'm sure your father's were thrilled.
You think: Biblical names, those, and two of the nicer ones.
These are my daughters, Mia Abigail and Amy Charlotte. Their first names are both after my grandmother Amelia. Yes, they’re fraternal twins.
You say: That's a clever name scheme for twins!
You think: Definately one of the better name-matching schemes for twins, though I'm still not a big fan of matching names.
These are my children, Anna Elizabeth, Jasmine Belle, and Eric Thomas. Anna helped name Jasmine and Eric. She was only five and seven when they were born, didn’t she do a good job?
You say: She certainly did!
You think: I bet I can guess Anna's favorite movies.
This is my son, Tyler Lennox. I think last names used as given names sound dignified, don’t you?
You say: Oh, very dignified.
You think: Sorry, but Tyler lost it's dignity once it became popular. And he sounds like a boy-band type.
This is my daughter, Elizabeth Emma. We call her Lizzy.
You say: Very pretty
You think: Someone likes Jane Austen.
These are my twins, Susanna Mariel and Samuel Matthew. I know it’s matchy, but they were the names we’d picked out for a boy and a girl, and when we had both we couldn’t resist not using them both! We call them Zanna and Sam.
You say: Those are very nice names.
You think: At least the nicknames are different enough.
This is my daughter Calliope Athena. My husband is a professor of Greek mythology.
You say: What a unique name!
You think: I hope she goes by Callie.
