I know an Anna-Grace as well. Her first name is literally just Grace-Grace, which I just realized. I still love it though!

me, but’s basically my whole list 
my own rant: I need to let myself be comfortable with my dated tastes and stop caring if the internet or anyone else, tbh, hates my names bc they’re “dated”.

All my favourite names are too popular. I don’t like “unique” names. My all time favourite names are Chloe and Charlotte. Will they ever grow out of style?

and i almost used “elio solstice” earlier which would be so cute if not for the meanings </3

I need to stop putting [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f] on such a high pedestal because this is why I don’t end up loving any other names - they aren’t [name_f]Stephanie[/name_f].

There’s one name that a user came up with and they posted it in a lounge thread and I loooooove it and have loved it for a while but it’s very unique and i want to credit them but i cant remember who it was who posted it so i cant pm them asking if i can use it and i’m not a regular anymore so i can’t even check the thread to see who posted it. AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!

[name_m]Nixon[/name_m] and [name_m]Dixon[/name_m] would be so cool if one wasn’t associated with political scandal and the other didn’t shorten to Dick(s). I just love the way they sound but am so reluctant to add them to my list

Why is it so difficult finding girls names that go with [name_f]Lola[/name_f] that
- don’t feel totally different stylistically
- work in all the languages I’d like them to work in
- aren’t too similar to [name_f]Lola[/name_f]

I actually like

I finally got up the nerve to start going by [name_f]Sadie[/name_f] full time, it was a friends only nick name for years before I got a new job and introduced myself that way, and now it’s basically just my name. I’m thrilled, it has way less baggage, wonderful life now etc etc.
But every time I introduce myself to someone I now have a 50% change of them going, oh cool that’s so and so’s dog’s name.
Also, not really a name rant but I’m mad that I am not in a place in life to start TTC. I’m tired of dreaming and planning 
It sucks that my chosen profession requires so much school.

Why does the pet name category get so little attention
And I can’t even go back to my old method of using the baby name category, because all the threads I used to use aren’t that active anymore either.

I do like that! The “ix” sound is just so cool.

[name_f]Every[/name_f] time we talk about a name having a roaring 20s flair we really mean it has a 1900’s flair as all the young adults in that decade were born then
Less of a rant, more of an observation
