I recently met a [name]Tuesday[/name]. And there is [name]Wednesday[/name] [name]Adams[/name], So I am curious, what do you all think of day of the week names? Which are usable and which aren’t? I don’t think I myself would use any of them.
Personally I think they’re all a bit nuts. When using [name]Wednesday[/name] [name]Adams[/name] as an argument I think we’ve got to remember what kind of family she came from. However saying this I did have a dream where I had a child called [name]Sunday[/name] - strange thing is I can’t remember the gender! - but in real life I think they’re all unusable.
I probably wouldn’t ever use them, but I do like [name]Tuesday[/name], [name]Wednesday[/name] and [name]Sunday[/name]. I’ve known a [name]Tuesday[/name] and [name]Sunday[/name]. While there’s the occasional lighthearted teasing, there’s little fuss made over their names. I’ve never known a [name]Wednesday[/name], but I’d like to!
I think it’s a bit bananas. I don’t believe any are usable! Suitable alternatives could be to use other ‘calendar’ names like [name]Summer[/name] & [name]Autumn[/name], [name]April[/name], [name]May[/name], [name]June[/name] & [name]August[/name], or maybe the names of Gods that days are derived from, e.g. [name]Mars[/name], [name]Thor[/name], [name]Venus[/name] -those seem much more like proper names than weekdays do
I wouldn’t personally use any, but I know a male [name]Sunday[/name] (which I [name]LOVE[/name] on him), a female [name]Tuesday[/name], and then of course there’s [name]Wednesday[/name]. I don’t really think any are particularly usable, but I do really [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Sunday[/name] on the boy I know. He’s got a very alternative look (like blue hair and piercings and whatnot) and it’s just very cool.
I would use it on a pet for sure and I would love to meet a person with a day of the week name, but I probably couldn’t name my child that name. Nicknames are sort of tough. [name]Just[/name] like [name]January[/name] [name]Jones[/name] is a fantastic name for an actress, a Thursday [name]Smith[/name] would be awesome, but I can’t imagine actually calling that person Thursday. Does [name]January[/name] go by her full name (bit long)? [name]Jan[/name] (way too unglamorous for her)? I do think [name]Wednesday[/name] is the best ([name]Wendy[/name]?). Too bad the Addams got there first.
