I was reading another post on names of a certain color and it got me thinking…do all names have a color? If so, what would they be?
For example, [name]Delphine[/name] is a pastel blue to me, while [name]Ariel[/name] is an emerald-turquoise. [name]Cecily[/name] is baby pink lace and [name]Persephone[/name] is an orange-ish red. [name]Helen[/name] is navy, while [name]Anne[/name] is chocolate and [name]Debbie[/name] is yellow.
So, for our game, we start out with one name (I am going to choose mine, as I must admit to seeing my name as colorless and I want to know what people will put, tee hee): [name]Sydney[/name].
The first person will then write:
[name]Sydney[/name] - [Insert color of your choice].
Then they will put their name (or the name they will use/have already used for their child, or a name you just like, or whatever. A name, okay?) below it, followed by a “…”
The next person will take [name]Sydney[/name], plus the other person’s name (for purposes, we’ll use [name]Wilhelmina[/name]) and put:
[name]Sydney[/name] - [Insert color, not necessarily that chosen by the person before them.]
[name]Wilhelmina[/name] - [Ditto.]
[Their name]…
Everyone is to keep adding a name and contributing their colors. Also, colors can (and are encouraged to) be specific…you could say that one name is royal purple, while the other is a light lavender.
Have fun naming/coloring, everyone!

Post Script: If their end up being quite a few names on the list, then around Name #20 or so, feel free to start the cycle over again! (-:
namegoddess names have always had colours for me so I thought I was rather odd. eg [name]Chloe[/name] [name]Skye[/name] is sky blue. Are there others out there who genuinely see names as colours? I would love to hear from you.
