Really exploring “fancier” but also clunky and funky names — these two feel super similar? They both remind me of snow days and mittens and rosy cheeks :,)

Would [name_m]Lucien[/name_m] (I think I prefer the LOO-see-en pronunciation) get lost in the sea of [name_m]Luke[/name_m], [name_m]Lucas[/name_m], [name_u]Luca[/name_u], [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], etc?

  • Yes, it blends in
  • It might tbh
  • No, it’s distinct
  • I have something else to say (@ me)

I think it could, but is a bit more distinct to set it apart.

Meg and [name_f]Gem[/name_f] would be really cute for twins as nicknames! I don’t like them for full names. Same with [name_f]Andi[/name_f] and [name_u]Dani[/name_u].

Megan and [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]? [name_f]Margaret[/name_f] and [name_f]Gemma[/name_f]? [name_u]Andrea[/name_u] and [name_f]Daniella[/name_f]? [name_f]Andromeda[/name_f] and [name_f]Jordana[/name_f]?

I first joined around 2011/2012* then stopped posting/reading, than lurked again the celeb thread for a few months and decided to join again last year.

*I checked and it was March 2012 to July 2013. Trip down the memory lane :exploding_head: :laughing:

I discovered it in 2017 when I was looking for a new name website (before I was using babynamewizard), all I basically did was read the blog post and do research on names, then in 2018 I discovered the forums and lurked on there like a creep for quite some time and then I joined in [name_u]June[/name_u] 2020. I remember when the old forums changed to this one and I didn’t like it cause I wasn’t used to it :joy:

Yeah I discovered NB as an 8th grader (so probably around 13-14) and lurked for years till I made an account at 17 :joy: not sure why I waited so many years to make an account

Same! That was such a drastic change!

I discovered Nameberry around 2017 (really enjoyed browsing the forums especially) and finally joined last year! To be honest, the switch over to the new forum made this place seem more approachable to me & made me want to join. :slightly_smiling_face: I liked the old forum too, but the style made it came across more clique-ish to me - like l was intruding on private conversations, somehow.
