This was so fun! I got 9/12
I got 9! I was surprised with [name_u]Everett[/name_u]!
So cool! I got 10/12. Honestly thought I’d get 12/12 considering my obsession with etymologies, but I’m still happy!
I guessed [name_f]Birdie[/name_f] on the first one without even thinking. By the time I pressed ‘vote now’ I knew it wasn’t correct, but I felt like it would be cheating if I changed it!
On the second one, I guessed [name_f]Melissa[/name_f]. I know [name_f]Melissa[/name_f] means ‘honey bee’, and [name_f]Debra[/name_f] means ‘bee’, but didn’t know the other two. I just went with [name_f]Melissa[/name_f] because it was my instinct. Super cool, though!
I nearly guessed [name_f]Alba[/name_f] & [name_f]Eira[/name_f] for the final one, but changed my vote at the last minute.

I got 11/12 (I got [name_u]Everett[/name_u] wrong, although that was my gut answer, I just didn’t pick it)!! Honestly didn’t think I’d get more than maybe 2 
10/12! I’m surprised at how many name meanings I actually know (I never would’ve guessed [name_u]Everett[/name_u] meant brave boar though).

I never would have guessed that [name_u]Beckett[/name_u] means “bee cottage”. I thought the meaning of [name_u]Beckett[/name_u] was related to woodland.
I guess I need to get reading up on name meanings more so I’m ready for the round! 
I got 11 
I said [name_m]Clarence[/name_m] for “light” but I was between those two!
11 out of 12! I had no idea about Everett’s meaning. I’m surprised I knew that many, honestly.
Thank you so much for doing this - it was so much fun. 
I got 12/12, I’m pretty proud of myself 
I did get worried when I saw how many people thought it was [name_m]Barnaby[/name_m] though

I got 6 points. Some I had no clue so just guessed anything.
10/12. Feeling pretty good about that. 
11/12, I picked [name_m]Edwin[/name_m] on the tenth poll!
12/12
This was fun, and I am looking forward to seeing how difficult it’s going to get! 
11/12!!! I only got Everett wrong!
