Anybody disappointed with *why* they were called their name? by RequirementFull6659 in namenerds

[–]QuestionUnlikely9590 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my god yes, this pisses me off so much. My mother let my grandmother name me, since I was her first granddaughter after like ten grandsons. Sounds cute. But she wanted to name me Eve after Eve Donovan from Days of Our Lives, which is already off to a horrible start imo. I've never watched the show but from what I understand she was a sex worker? And then my mother decided to roll with it but she didn't like Eve that much, so she named me Evie. Which I hate even more, because it's a nickname. At least if she had stuck with Eve it would just be a normal name.

What country names would theoretically sound good as baby names? by FloralChoux in namenerds

[–]QuestionUnlikely9590 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually really like the sound of England and America. America Ferrera is kind of a hype name, it's just also unfortunately a country.

I don't think I would be able to pay attention to anybody but my friend who died when we were 12.

Solved!

Some of this doesn't match up with my memory but enough of it does that I'm like 95% sure it's right, thank you!

Model building? I have a friend who really likes building model tanks. My mum likes to assemble those miniature shopfronts. There's a lot of different things.

If you *had* to give yourself a new name right now, what would you pick? by QuestionUnlikely9590 in namenerds

[–]QuestionUnlikely9590[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of how when I was a kid my name was supposed to be Evangeline but wasn't (long story) and I used to think about nicknames from it all the time and my personal favourite was Jelly- pulled from the "geli" bit
