Help[Games] Re: You say/You think
in reply to a message by britto08
These are my daughters, Lily Cecelia, Arianna Jasmine, and Magdalena Violet. We call them Lily, Ari, and Maggie.
You say: How cute!
You think: I love every thing except Magdalena. Maggie's nice, but Lena is better.
This is my son, Avery Dylan and my daughter, Skyler Addison. We thought unisex names might discourage gender stereotyping.
You say: That's cool.
You think: I love Skyler for a girl and actually Dylan too. I'm not a fan of Avery though, unisex or not.
This is my son, Gabriel Joshua. My husband and I named him after our fathers. We call him Gabe.
You say: Hey Gabe.
You think: That's nice.
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 really sweet.
You think: I like the names, I probably would have changed Amy's spelling to Ami if I wanted to be cheesey or Aimee to be less matchy.
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: Yes she did.
You think: Someone loves Disney. But at least she didn't name her sister Snow White or her brother Prince Charming.
This is my son, Tyler Lennox. I think last names used as given names sound dignified, don’t you?
You say: Yeah.
You think: I think Tyler is used enough as a given name that it's not "dignified", just normal. Lennox is kinda weird.
This is my daughter, Elizabeth Emma. We call her Lizzy.
You say: Cute
You think: Elizabeth Emma has no flow to it at all. Emma Elizabeth would have been much better. She could still go by Lizzy.
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: I think they're great names.
You think: Definitely not the worst names I've heard.
This is my daughter Calliope Athena. My husband is a professor of Greek mythology.
You say: I can tell.
You think: Now I love Greek names and Greek Mythology, but why Calliope? She's going to get teased if anyone can figure out how to pronounce her name correctly. Hopefully she goes by Calli.
