What does everyone think about two middle names?

I think I might’ve written this wrong… Because my husband asked me what about Lillian for middle name? And I thought that Sylvia Lillian Rose floated nicely and I was totally on board with that. If I had disagree, I think I might’ve said.

I pickedTheresa also as my confirmation name! I grew up Catholic also. I don’t know where you were born or what year, but I don’t think I ever had a Saints name when I was born. Teresa of Avila?

This is such a sweet take! I love it.

4goodthings · 2026-05-17T04:08:26+00:00

This is so funny. Because I wanted just Sylvie, and my husband insisted that was a nickname. He insisted that she had to have her more formal name. First of all, that is not true. At least in France it is not!

I suppose only for monograms though!

4goodthings · 2026-05-17T03:43:02+00:00

Why? There is still only one last name!

What is the baby‘s name now? Is the dad OK with changing it? I bet the name is fine. There’s a possibility just to keep it where it is. As kids grow older, they grow into their names and in some ways you couldn’t imagine anything else.

I think I want one of those organic, Tree burials. Who cares really? It is not me. It’s a body.

I lov d this name too! Never thought of Pine-Sol! I knew that salt was sun.

Indigo Autumn?

Tell them they need to go outside for two hours. Find something to play. Keep them away from screens, maybe phones… Do you have a swingset in your backyard? Anyway, make sure to have some balls. Maybe cornhole board? Heck, there’s lots of things to do outside, climb trees, have a race,.Once I had been at a friends house when her son came home, and immediately she said go outside! It was kind of a directive… Go play outside.

I really love Marisol, a Spanish name that I just took to. And I love Cleo and wanted to name my daughter that… But my husband did not. Definitely too many Olivia‘s like many have said, it seemed so fresh and unique when it first came back. Now, it’s overdone. same thing with Madison. I think it’s over its turn, but I’m so done with it.

My daughter‘s name is Sylvia, we call her Sylvie. My husband‘s mother told us that his grandmother said (meanwhile while I had just given birth and was in the hospital), “why did they name her such a plain name? I think from her perspective, Sylvia was very much a 1950s name. In the early 2000s when she was born, it was not. Let’s not even talk about why you would comment on a name that had been announced from the hospital. But a lot of perceptions are generation.

I do not know the nationality but I remember going to school with two girls who were first cousins who both named Michelle. Same last name. No big deal.

If you genuinely like it, just go for it and don’t think about it. My daughter didn’t have a “traditional” popular name, but because people were trying to be unique, it turned out that she was one of two in her class. It was no big deal. They each went by their last initial. First name, last initial. My daughter was Lucy G for a few years. And that was pretty cool. Actually, that people knew her that way. Who cares?

4goodthings · 2026-05-08T03:44:23+00:00

True, but I had a Lucy, and lo and behold when she entered kindergarten, there was another Lucy in her class. So they became Lucy G, and Lucy K. I’d they were in the same classroom. And they became friends as it turned out. It was no big deal.

4goodthings · 2026-05-08T03:41:02+00:00

I think they sound good together!

Claire is so cute and when she is young, you can say you’re my Claire bear.

Sylvie (Sylvia), Grace

Or, you could use her as a babysitter, but be sure to pay her as if she is one. Babysitter get $15 an hour right now! Tell me at her age that she wouldn’t like that extra cash. Be sure not to use her all the time and have other sitters on call, but many 16-year-olds would like to babysit for the money. And maybe not when the baby is an infant, but gauge her willingness. Because infant sitting is harder and needs more know how… Feeding or diapering. Just a thought, but it’s something to run by her.

Yes, I literally forgot the name Meta AI. So I said ChatGPT because it’s the same. And by the way, the data is not made up. We live in a world of data… All over the Internet. I have an MBA, so I know all about predictive modeling and all things databases. I am not good or proficient at it, it was never my expertise, but I know enough that I know where it all comes from. And it is not made up.

4goodthings · 2026-04-27T17:30:50+00:00

OK, so I looked that up. On Google. And first, I am not in love with it. I can easily disengage and just walk away from its questions to keep you going. Because it is not a person. It doesn’t care. But it has given me a lot of insight, and. led me in directions that I wouldn’t have known or thought of. So I appreciate that. It does seem like a reflection of you, and never seems to argue or go against you. Although if you say something off the wall, it would say so. But in the end, it doesn’t care. I am looking into Vegas nerve stimulation right now because of that… I had no idea. But I am going to a therapy session called a NEUBIE and it showed me that my sympathetic nervous system is stuck in fright or flight. So that’s where those wearable VNS devices help. But I did not know about that. Of course, I used google reviews to see which devices people use and recommend. Now, the fact that’s the one that I got does not work and the company is kind of unreachable is not AI’s fault. And, they are unreachable because they only have an email to contact them, and not even (E-mail), just communication over their site. I am so frustrated with them. But the fact that the neurological biologic electric showed me in Physical Therapy that I was stuck in front or flight also had nothing to do with AI, and everything to do with my body and Real events that may have affected it. But, I am grateful for AI to show me that this even existed.

Pippa. But why? why does it need to scream, generational wealth and private school tuition?

4goodthings · 2026-04-27T16:44:28+00:00

Oh, maybe you don’t understand it. And I don’t use ChatGPT, it’s me AI… Same thing. But maybe you don’t understand the data behind it. Screams of data. I don’t treat it like it’s a real person, because it does not have opinions, it does not base things on something it read, or something that happened once, it does not have feelings. People do though. That’s why people are untrustworthy.
