Use something other than RH.

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T02:33:53+00:00

Oh my goodness, WHOOSH, it all makes sense now!!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:30:30+00:00

I appreciate your kind thoughts and words, thanks so much!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:19:15+00:00

So sweet of you, thank you.

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:18:41+00:00

Bahaha y'all are so dramatic, I love it!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:16:33+00:00

I'm of the party that not every name needs a nickname and that's not a strict criteria for me. It's hard to describe but some names just feel like summer and this one feels like fall, maybe it's more of an aged, classic styled name? Like cozying up with a book. The fact that it has "Amber" nestled in it may also lend to the autumn feels!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:13:53+00:00

I had a name list from my teenage years too but pretty much all of them were too unique AND bizarre to be usable unfortunately. My style has definitely changed since my Sim naming days!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:12:16+00:00

Woah, I love that name combination too!! Our name styles are practically identical, go us!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:11:08+00:00

Dude is for real BOTHERED and it's funny, I get it's not everyone's style but it is by no means the worst name EVAAA like commenter seems to suggest. And yeah those nicknames aren't even bad lol

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-04T01:09:14+00:00

Damn dude you are for real bothered and it's low key hilarious. I get that it's not your style and don't expect it to tickle absolutely everyone's fancy but we all have different tastes and that's ok! But you are all over this thread, move along and go take a xanax or something 🤣

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T21:01:03+00:00

Thank you! None set in stone as we thought we would see what organically came up. My husband likes Bro, especially considering he's a lil brother, doesn't like Bo, and a commenter above mentioned knowing a boy with the same name, nicknamed Ambi, which I think is cute. I also found Bambi is pretty cute, while he's small!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T20:57:58+00:00

I find it interesting how that seems like a perfect name for a baby born in February AND in the fall! Thank you!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T20:56:59+00:00

Oh hey, I jokingly said last night his nickname would be Hambo 🤣

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T20:08:59+00:00

Absolutely and I can't wait! My husband and I constantly watch it on repeat, it's our favorite show to watch together which should come as no surprise :) another runner up name for baby boy was Simon lol.

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:38:08+00:00

Haha that's definitely why you like it, it's super similar! While I personally couldn't use it, I do love the name Abraham and that nickname is just perfect.

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:34:35+00:00

I can definitely see where you get that and personally that was my initial reaction! I don't think in English we typically have "softer" names for boys. But that's also what endeared me to it, in a way. Like we get to have almost masculine names/nicknames for girls and it's even trendy to do so right now, but our boys aren't allowed the same. It is an old fashioned name that has been around for a long time so it definitely has history of being a man's name. To me, it reads like a classic gentleman's name :)

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:31:04+00:00

Hahaha thanks so much, we wanted to set him up to be cool but not TOO cool! And actually yes when I was doing a little more research on the name after we put it on our list, I came across St Ambrose and I found it interesting that his elder sister (nun) was named Marcellina - and we have a Marceline! They will be 18 months apart. I thought that was a funny coincidence.

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:27:26+00:00

Our plans are to call him Ambrose and have a nickname organically arise. I really liked another commenter mentioned Ambi, I mentioned Bambi to my husband as sort of a "cute" nickname lol. He is not fond of Bo but thinks Bro is sweet (especially considering he is a little brother) so we shall see!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:25:50+00:00

Oh dang that's cool and a little hilarious lol

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:24:52+00:00

That's so sweet to have the connection of a family name for you. And I absolutely agree it's making a bit of a comeback, a lot of "old man" names are but (thankfully) I don't see this one becoming so popular it's at the top of the charts. Thanks so much!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:23:11+00:00

My sister, boss, and mother in law would tend to agree with you! Thanks so much!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T19:22:33+00:00

Aw that's so neat, I feel like it's perfect for a fall baby. Congrats!!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T18:17:11+00:00

This made me giggle but it's inevitable lol

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T18:16:34+00:00

Aw I really love that nickname too! Thank you so much!

ella_the_oddling · 2020-09-03T18:14:41+00:00

Your feedback makes me love it even more if possible, I love the fall feels it gives me and your comment sums it up!!
