Discussed names w/dh. šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø

Dh & I have been together for twelve years. Heā€™s well aware of my name obsession, even though weā€™re not terribly likely to have actual human children. But we toy around w/the idea of maybe adopting someday. So, of course I like to check in now & then about his name opinions. I donā€™t know why I torture myself. :joy:

For boys, he is obsessed w/Francis & [name_m]Magnus[/name_m]. I donā€™t hate either of them, but theyā€™re far from what Iā€™d pick. Heā€™s completely horrified w/my listā€¦

[name_u]Shiloh[/name_u]

[name_m]Liev[/name_m]

[name_m]Ewan[/name_m]

[name_u]Nolan[/name_u]

[name_u]Julian[/name_u]

[name_u]Finn[/name_u]

I suggested I could get on board w/Albert as a fn (my grandpaā€™s name, which Iā€™d prefer for a mn), & he really liked that. So, thatā€™s somethingā€¦

For girls, he at least loves my names: [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f], [name_f]Olive[/name_f] & [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]. [name_m]Even[/name_m] though I think that [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] is too popular. And he doesnā€™t like [name_f]Nellie[/name_f], which is my favorite part.

Sadly, he basically thinks that any sweet friendly name that I love like [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] & [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] sound like stripper names. I just donā€™t get thatā€¦

This is just a lot of random rambling. Why does he hate all of my boys? Have you ever heard a man say names like [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] & [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] sound like strippers? Apparently [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is a stripper name too. [name_f]Pearl[/name_f]?!

Thanks for your thoughts on my rant. :slight_smile:

Lol about those ā€œstripper names.ā€ Maybe he just thinks theyā€™re too sweet and friendly sounding. They are certainly not stripper names.

Magnus sounds like a stripper name to me. You can let him know. :stuck_out_tongue:

Ha! [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] could totally be a male stripper, couldnā€™t he? Dh also likes [name_m]Thomas[/name_m], which is his mn. And also our nephewā€™s mn. I donā€™t hate it, but I really dislike [name_m]Tom[/name_m] & [name_m]Tommy[/name_m]. :woman_shrugging:
