Thanks, [name_f]Katinka[/name_f]!!
in class
Teacher: Who’s your hero?
Classmate: [name_m]Dwayne[/name_m] [name_m]Johnson[/name_m]!
Classmate: Beyoncé!
Classmate: [name_u]Michael[/name_u] [name_u]Jordan[/name_u]!
Me: @pam!
I want to edit it but don’t know how /good time to ask haha/
Do you give names to your character’s children that are not even born during the story?? Or am I just so strange?
How cute! I definitely have a soft spot for [name_f]Anya[/name_f] and [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]😍
Yunna and [name_m]Matvey[/name_m] are 14 and their future kids are (through it may change) [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] and [name_f]Irida[/name_f]
Definitely. The character in IWWV ruined it for me, but it’s a pretty good name.
I know, RIGHT? Obviously my kid would be doomed if he was named [name_f]Hortense[/name_f], but it’s like sooooo creative to change my own name!
Oh yeah kid couldn’t change their name or tell you they don’t like it but you should have to go through that terrible harrowing struggle of being named [name_f]Hortense[/name_f]! And OF COURSE there are ABSOLUTELY NO NICKNAMES you could go by, not even [name_f]Tess[/name_f], [name_f]Hetty[/name_f], [name_m]Tenny[/name_m], or [name_f]Essie[/name_f].
Imagine thinking that that’s the worst name you can have.
Whoever thinks that’s a harrowing struggle should try being brown on the first day of school.
Teacher to other kids: Oh, I’m so sorry I said your name wrong. It’s so pretty.
Other kids: Come on! It’s not so bad to have it said wrong.
Me: laughs in brown girl
(a.k.a- that time the teacher can’t pronounce your name right for the two years you spend at that school)
Okay, am I the only one who whenever I see the “Everything But Names” category, I always subconsciously sing it to the tune of “Everything Has Changed” by [name_u]Taylor[/name_u] [name_m]Swift[/name_m] & [name_m]Ed[/name_m] [name_m]Sheeran[/name_m]?
I can’t say I’ve noticed that before, but I see it now! I was literally listening to that song this morning
Part 2: the nonusability of a name transfers with a random property.
“[name_m]Dresden[/name_m]? But that place was bombed! It’s like naming your child Hiroshima!” *
“Strippers use word-names so anyone called [name_f]Grace[/name_f], [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] or [name_f]Scarlet[/name_f] is doomed”
“[name_f]Amelia[/name_f] is a birth defect! Might as well name your child Symbrachydactyly!”
*alternative punchline: But that place is in [name_m]Germany[/name_m]! It’s like naming your child Mönchengladbach!
Me: sees people insulting a name I’m lukewarm about
Me: adds it to my signature and puts it everywhere
People on NB: Your kid will hate you if you name them [name_f]Brunhilda[/name_f].
Also people on NB: Your kid will hate you if you name them [name_f]Emily[/name_f].
Me: names my kid [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Brunhilda[/name_f]
Me: goes to the Nameberry generator
What the generator suggests: [name_u]Blue[/name_u]
Can you believe that before nb I had a life? Nameberry is my life now.
How dare you!
