The stars aligned today and there were three other little girls at the play place in the mall today, all between ages of 15 and 18 months (and all sporting super-cute pigtails :D)! Two were named [name]Ava[/name] and [name]Lily[/name], which I probably could have predicted within 3 guesses for our area. The third, though, was named [name]Promise[/name]! It suited this little girl right down to her socks.
So, what do you think of [name]Promise[/name]?
What names have surprised you at the playground lately?
I think it’s a little too sickly sweet for me and it doesn’t have any nn’s that I could stomach–Prom, [name]Missy[/name], [name]Prissy[/name]–I guess [name]Romy[/name], but even that
It’s up there with [name]Lovey[/name], Dovey, Sweetpea, Kiss, Hug, Humble, etc.
I like a lot of virtue names, even some of the stranger ones, but I don’t like [name]Promise[/name].
I have the verdict! Well, sort of. I really like [name]Promise[/name], and if little [name]Promise[/name] is sometimes called [name]Missy[/name], than that is officially adorable. However, there is one aspect of [name]Promise[/name] that bothers me. What if Miss [name]Promise[/name] was a liar? Or what if she never kept true to her word? This might be a bit of a challenging name in that case…
I think [name]Promise[/name] is beautiful! I could see it on a little girl definately.
Last summer when I was at the playground with my little nephew, [name]Nicholas[/name], there was a little girl there named [name]Gemma[/name]. That name really stuck in my mind and I fell in love with it!
I’m very fond of [name]Gemma[/name]. I’ve only met one, very briefly, and she was an English 80’s child. I gather it was fairly popular there at the time?
