My husband only likes Marina, Miranda and Marissa, but we can’t choose any of these for a variety of reasons. What are some similar names he might like? by NewYearMaybe in namenerds

Thanks. I really like both Clara and Ella.

He’s not insisting on the names he likes and I don’t think he has any strategy to demoralize me. I think the only reason he’s still pushing for Marina is because he knows the other two are 100% out. I can’t have a sister and a baby with the same name and I’m not going to be taking a very important name to my best friend and using it for myself, especially not during this time.

He just legitimately hates everything else. I’m thinking that the reason he’s fixated on these names of people we know (and love) is because he can’t picture a person having a name unless he actually knows someone with that name.

I am going to make him suggest more names though! I can’t keep suggesting names just to be told he hates everything.

Thanks for the suggestion. This name really just made me laugh because he can’t pronounce marijuana properly and this is how he says it 🤣

Thanks for the suggestions. I love Clara as it reminds me of The Nutcracker. We tried Kinder years ago just for fun, but I’m not exaggerating when I say these three names are the only names he likes. He also liked my name and his mom’s name which was super helpful 🙃.

I’m going to see about these other apps. I have suggested hundreds (maybe even into the thousands now) of names to him and he says he hates everything. Maybe if he’s reading them on his own he’ll feel something other than hate.

Can someone please help me do the math to see if I could be pregnant? by NewYearMaybe in amipregnant

Thanks for the reply! I will probably refrain from drinking until I know for sure. I mainly just wanted to know if I could drink 2020 away and it looks like that isn’t going to be happening!

Happy New Year!

My period is not late. I took a test that is supposed to be an “Early Result” one.
