[Opinions] Re: Paidyn
in reply to a message by LMS
Amelia Rose is pretty, but a little boring. Still, not at all terrible.
Lilah and Amelia are both nice by themselves, but the flow is way off when they're paired together, either one first. That said, Lilah is my favorite spelling of the name.
As for the others:
Paidyn - Not only does it look way too feminine on a boy, but... "Paid in full" is all I can think. Poor kid.
Kaleeah - Blech!
Brynn - This is nice. I like Brynn quite a bit.
Miracle - Cheesy.
Justice - The only Justice I've ever met was a girl, so I think of it as being a feminine virtue name. Not the worst thing in the world to name your son (see Paidyn).
Lawson - Don't care for surnames as first names, generally.
Beah - How is this a boy name?
Axton - I can't figure our if this was legitimately someone's surname or just a trendy take on the -ton fad. Either way... pass.
Griffin - Never really liked this name, but other people think it's cool, so it's all right.
Blaine - Have to agree with Duckie on this one: "Sounds like an appliance!"
Bailey - Alcohol. Sorry, that's all I can think of.
Jermaine - Not my style (and I dislike the 'G' being replaced by a 'J').
Deno - Is this a variant of Dino? Pass.
Maekinley - Ugh...
