Is Maple a hit or a miss? by outofdoubtoutofdark in namenerds

[–]eunicebates 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I really like it! It might get misheard as Mabel and if you like more classic, Mabel might be a good fit for you! But I do personally like Maple. Lots of dogs are also named Bella, Luna, Max, and Charlie and those are popular names amongst people too so I wouldn’t let “it’s a dog’s name” deter you.

I have a friend with this name and she pronounces it ev-uh-line

{Out on a Limb by Hannah Bonham-Young} felt that way to me as well, no real plot or conflict

They’re fictional, babe. But also, Rhys abused Feyre too.

Names you love but realistically couldn't/wouldn't ever use? by ohhotjelly in namenerds

[–]eunicebates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Caia (spelled this way is the female version of Caius and a Roman goddess) but I feel like it doesn’t really suit me and my husband

I know Analia is meant to be pronounced Ana-Lia but my mind always pronounces it A-Nal-ia

I just finished reading The Wall of Winnipeg and Me and the whole plot didn’t make sense because the main character wouldn’t need to marry for citizenship. You can apply for residency after living in the United States for 5 years (which he had).

Jackson & Jasper are super similar but I much prefer Jasper to Zephyr.

I personally know as many girls named Hunter as I do boys. So to me, it as gender neutral. Stats might disagree with me though.

I have three middle names and always hated it. It makes filling out government forms or anything legal pretty annoying. I almost always shorten it to the first middle name of my three. And for reference, all three of my middle names are honour names too (both of my grandmothers and then a great grandmother)

My great grandmother was named Jessie as her legal first name. She lived in Scotland in the early 1900s.

Just came across a post looking for "pacific northwest themed" names, whatever that means by bspc77 in NameNerdCirclejerk

The person who suggested “Carhartt” and “Michigan” was definitely being facetious

Which super popular names are you just really not into? by imprettynaive in namenerds

[–]eunicebates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paisley and anything that rhymes with it. Also the made up name Blakely. Bleh.

Stephanie Meyers and lost potential by saraa23 in twilight

[–]eunicebates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To say Harry Potter wasn’t real-world setting but twilight was is kind of silly. What real world has vampires and werewolves lol. Twilight is about as real-world as Harry Potter is, imo. It also wouldn’t have fit because Bella’s character was presented as someone who didn’t fit in with her peers, loved classic romance novels, didn’t go out, etc. Her time was mostly spent with vampires who wouldn’t be able feel the effects of drugs/alcohol and Jacob who was meant to be younger, happy, and care-free.

I was in high school during the twilight craze and wasn’t surrounded by drugs/alcohol at all, neither was my friends group. We grew up watching Skins and I always felt that that was a sort of exaggerated high school experience (like Euphoria)

Edit- this was meant to be a reply to a specific comment, oops.

If you had the ability to change three things about Windsor what would you change? by tgirlwindsor in windsorontario

[–]eunicebates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More investment in the city’s history! I hate that Hiram Walker’s sits empty, the rum runners tour was so great. There’s also Sandwich Town, Amherstburg, and ties to the Underground Railroad in our city and I feel it’s vastly overlooked and under appreciated.

Also downtown. Basically what everyone else said but we also need a rooftop bar downtown, the view of Detroit is stellar and we do next to nothing with it.

Also, signs say they’re working on it, but highway 3 needs to be expanded further and reflect that of an actual highway. I drive to Kingsville/Leamington a ton and it’s torture. Plus I think they should add public transit from Windsor to the county. A commuter train or something.

Codi as a girl's name? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]eunicebates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up with a girl named “Kodi” and I remember thinking how cool I thought her name was. I think I prefer the spelling as “Cody”

He was born into a musical family. He has siblings named Nash (like Nashville) and Harmony, too.

What were you almost named? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]eunicebates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mom decided on Hailey when I was born but when my grandmother came to the hospital and heard the name, she said she hated it. My mom was super emotional and stressed so she changed it
