I got leader-charmer (identical %s), though on re-takes when I varied some of the ones I really wasn’t sure of, I also got noble-leader or noble-influencer.
But I think leader-charmer is a pretty good fit on the whole. I love pretty long names like Amelia or Charlotte, but with charming nicknames like Millie or Charlie.
The only tricky bit is that everyone else likes these names too, AND I don’t like names that are overly popular
Round 1 was so tough because there were only maybe 5 I actually liked. I just tried to pick the ones that best fit my style, whether I liked them or not. I wish they names in Round 1 varied like they do in Round 2.
[name_f]My[/name_f] suggested names are crazy, nothing related to names that I like, and lots aren’t even really names - [name_m]Pewter[/name_m], [name_f]Chalice[/name_f], [name_m]Kipper[/name_m], [name_u]Moonglade[/name_u], for example. And a lot of made up names (Vespertine?) and names from different languages, none of which are related to my name taste.
I like classic names, nature names, vintage names. So far I’m really disappointed with the baby name DNA results!
I got Influencer-Romantic at first, then on the 2nd try I got Influencer-Charmer, and I have no idea which fits me better. Seems like the Influencer category is my strength, but I might take a couple more times too… I think like @emelfem My style varies between my boys & girls lists, so I’m just throwing the quiz for a loop maybe!
I’ve started a few profiles - it always reaches a point where instead of offering me more common names in a similar style, it just picks up on my unusual names and offers them across all styles. (Or alternate spellings of names I’ve already liked)
Current suggestions on my original profile are [name_u]Burma[/name_u], [name_m]Rainart[/name_m], [name_f]Samarra[/name_f], [name_m]Gadge[/name_m], [name_m]Finis[/name_m], [name_f]Beanie[/name_f], [name_m]Evrett[/name_m], [name_m]Renard[/name_m], [name_m]Kallum[/name_m], [name_m]Hughie[/name_m] etc. etc. Just… not very connected to [name_m]Edmond[/name_m], [name_u]Douglas[/name_u], [name_m]Clement[/name_m] and co for the most part.
@emelfem Same here, with both of my profiles! At first suggestions are great for the most part, then they get a little redundant or like you say, offering alternative spellings of names I already liked. Maybe I should try hearting names I would only realistically use, hmm
I got star-influencer, and they said this:
The minute people know you’re pregnant, they’re going to try to hack into your phone looking for your secret baby name lists.
[name_m]Man[/name_m], that makes me feel good about myself
I’m not one to care about popularity (puts on bulletproof fireproof lightningproof vest-yes I came from Nameberry memes), but the truth is, I do see names like [name_u]Wyatt[/name_u] and [name_u]Kaya[/name_u] getting popular lol
I’m Romantic-Noble but I just sent the test to my mom to see what she got and she’s Romantic-Charmer (never would have guessed)!
She told me that she was screenshotting the name suggestions because they were “really good.” Some of her favorites were: Matilda, Cordelia, Flora, Bluebell, Alice, and Clover (I’m going to call her style Shakespearean Botanical).
May come back once I can find an excuse to get my friends to take it;)
I got Leader-Noble the first time I took it, and it’s pretty accurate. The recommendations were mostly names I like or love, with a few thrown in that really weren’t my style, but that’s to be expected and not an issue. I’ll probably take it again a time or two to see if anything changes, but I’m happy with the result and it was fun!
(Edit: took it again and got Leader-Romantic which is also pretty darn accurate).
I got Influencer-Leader but they were tied with Charmer at 19%. [name_f]My[/name_f] name preferences are all over the place. I love elaborate names and short trendy names too.
Some current faves:
[name_f]Andromeda[/name_f]
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_u]Ezra[/name_u]
[name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_u]Gabriel[/name_u]
[name_u]Valor[/name_u]
[name_u]Artemis[/name_u]
[name_u]Logan[/name_u]
I’ve actually found the suggestions pretty good! A few off ones, but as I’ve gone through the process of liking/disliking and asking for more recommendations a number of times… while the recommendations have been a bit mixed, it’s suggested almost every name I like to some degree, with a few exceptions.
Though once I’d done that too many times, it thoroughly exhausts the reasonable recommendations (they’re probably already crossed off or on my favourites list!) and starts throwing up some pretty crazy stuff (Cordaye? Feather?!). Though even that I find kind of helpful… like a bit of an fyi that you have done the baby name dna thing now, and it’s time to invest in a kindle, enrol in an online course, or find pretty much anything else to be doing with your time while still stuck constantly breastfeeding! (Or just spend more time in the forums…)
I did have this issue too! I don’t even think there’s that much of a difference in style, but maybe I’m more fussy with boy’s names, so there were less recommendations I liked to teach it with. Though I’ve noticed now that you can specify boy vs girl recommendations, which I found helpful.
I’ve taken the test a handful of times and get a different result each time. Honestly I’m not sure which result is most accurate to my style; I tend to like names that sit in that sweet spot of being familiar but not overused but then again I do like some names that are now top 30 or higher I found the test to be fun but not necessarily helpful
I’ve taken the test twice. The first time I got Charmer-Romantic which was similar but not quite me. The second time I was a bit more discerning and got Noble-Star with a three-way tie between [name_u]Noble[/name_u], [name_f]Star[/name_f], and Charmer and after looking at the name recommendations I think it was spot on.
I took it a couple more times but I like the recs for Influencer-Leader best. I think that’s my true type.
When I ended up with Star-Charmer it kept giving me all girl names and hardly any boys. Might be some kind of glitch. Is there a place to write suggestions?
