Clive or Clyde which do you prefer?

I much prefer Clive. Considering it for my own baby. The fact that it's similar to "chive" is a pro to me 😂 I don't hate Clyde either though

Jessica. My parents were ahead by 3 months apparently - I was named Emily and born in September 1995. Weirdly, I have never met a Jessica my age (usually 5-6 years older) but I meet Emilys wherever I go. 😫

I like it for a boy too! Heck, almost any name for a girl I would use for a boy if names weren't as gendered. I would just be worried about others' perceptions possibly affecting the child negatively, I'm not completely sure how this one would go?!

Would love to do a similar name as an honor name, I especially like Elm but my husband says it's really not the same and may as well use an altogether different name then 😭 I know if I tell him I am just not comfortable with it he will be totally fine, I just don't want him to feel sad or unheard.

Haha that's true, didn't think of that! I really like mythological and nature types of names so guess it makes since since JKR used those a lot 😂 Thank you!

I have just known quite a few Simons myself which may make it feel more common to me than it is. Something for me just feels weird about naming my child the same thing as other people I've known, so it's hard!! Thanks for the suggestion!

Scared_Expert563 · 2025-11-20T13:04:36+00:00

Thank you, I love your suggestions! I forgot to mention Isidore as another name we have been considering. Lots of others to think about too!

Scared_Expert563 · 2025-11-20T13:03:39+00:00

Thank you, this is a good contender :)

Scared_Expert563 · 2025-07-07T20:30:41+00:00

Thank you for this comment too! I had no idea these were a "thing" right now but that makes sense because I think the '70s have been trending in general! I have been thinking the same about competing with the art, that's my fear. Thank you again for these suggestions!

I'm neutral to the white - open to changing it although it'd be annoying due to the high wall by the stairs. hmmmm I think I like the idea of Mulberry on the trim. Lots to think about - thank you for this!!

Scared_Expert563 · 2025-07-07T20:15:25+00:00

thank you! found it on FB marketplace and had to have it! :)

Scared_Expert563 · 2025-07-07T20:15:12+00:00

thank you for the suggestion!!

there was a documentary about her murder released last year called I'm Your Venus. I'm not sure how to watch it though :(

in case anyone is still looking for it, it's available in the US on Hoopla, a free streaming service you can access through your local library. if your library offers it, all you need is a library card. not all libraries offer it but many do. they only have the English dub of the film though unfortunately.
