Tell him to stop following your names board. He can do that, lol, and then you can keep pinning whatever you want!
haha
What other people do when they ~sneakily~ get on their phones during virtual school: Texting, instagram/other social media, youtube
what I do: Nameberry (We all knew where this was going)
Ack out of likes
Nothing puts into perspective how disliked the vast majority of names apparently are quite like those “rate this from 1-10” polls… am I the only one who doesn’t vote 3 or 4 on every name!!!
ikr!
I remember back when I was a tween, I used to always watch reality TV shows and make comments on people’s names. But that all ended one day when I asked my mom what someone’s name was because I missed it. She got really mad for some reason and shouted “WHAT DOES IT MATTER? IT’S NOT ABOUT HER NAME!”
That wasn’t the main reason that I stopped, but it definitely was a factor.
I don’t know why talking about names is so taboo sometimes. I know it’s weird, but I think that it’s fairly innocent as far as weird interests go.
Baby Name Quiz
Q1: What’s your favorite movie?
X movie I haven’t seen - Name I don’t like
Y movie I haven’t seen - Name I don’t like
Z movie I haven’t seen - Name I love
[name_u]Haven[/name_u]’t seen any of these- Name I don’t like
Me: … well, guess whose favorite movie is Z now!
Somewhere in an alternate universe…
Teacher taking attendance: “[name_m]Henry[/name_m] LN?”
My child: “I go by [name_m]Gareth[/name_m].”
Teacher: “Um… what? Why?”
My child: “Well, my middle name is [name_u]Gardener[/name_u], and I guess [name_m]Gareth[/name_m] shares some sounds with that.”
Teacher: “Why didn’t your mom just name you [name_m]Gareth[/name_m]?”
My child: “Because she named me based on a [name_u]Baby[/name_u] Name Quiz. [name_f]My[/name_f] first name came from the question ‘[name_m]How[/name_m] many siblings do you have?’ and her answer was 2, which matched with [name_m]Henry[/name_m]. Only she hates the name [name_m]Henry[/name_m] and its variations, so she had to find a nickname from my middle name, which probably should’ve been something else, but she pretended her favorite color was green so she could use [name_u]Gardener[/name_u] and stretch it to call me [name_m]Gareth[/name_m].”
I just saw a thread with names similar to my style and was so excited that I forgot all my favorite names.
Sibling Names for [name_u]Indigo[/name_u]!
Also… I think it says something about my personality, the way that I always get so excited when I see a new “brutally honest opinions” thread
That’s so sad!!!
She used to yell a lot. Probably contributed to a lot of the negative personality traits that I had growing up. She’s gotten better, fortunately. She knows about my interest in names, still thinks it’s weird, but doesn’t seem to care anymore.
*laughs in second screen*
srsly tho, I don’t have a cam on the big PC so I could basically dance a [name_m]Tango[/name_m] during Zoom classes.
Seriously, I’m normally a good child. But I like feeling like a rebel, as long as there’s no actual chance of getting caught
And I like feeling like a cool kid by putting ~~~ around words
Same
Me: rules are stupid
Also me: but not all of them and I’m also scared of consequences
Yeah, I want three but I hate [name_f]Denise[/name_f] so… I’m just gonna say that I don’t know and get the short form of my favorite name!
Precisely
Me, who doesn’t necessarily want kids: I definitely want 8+ kids, now hand over [name_u]Marie[/name_u]
Am I the only one who, if I make a post on a thread like this thread or the teenberries thread (basically, any non-name-related thread) and it doesn’t get a like within a few minutes, suddenly start panicking that I said something offensive or simply boring or otherwise bad?
