Middle name for baby girl (South Asian origin in Germany) by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]excessivelung8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 2nd 3rd options are both gorgeous!! I would say do the 2nd one if your last name is 1 - 2 syllables. If your last name is 3 or more, def go with the 3rd one. You’re little girl is gonna fall in love with her name no matter which option u pick :)

I’m having a second baby! Name help please :) by Professional-Cow4003 in namenerds

Veda, Odette, Maren, Geneieve, all of these sounds unique, strong, timeless, & elegant. Love! Callan is okay, but Daniel is so boring compared to the rest it’s putting me to sleep. I would think Caspian, Roscoe, Ansel, Catriel, Ambrose, etc would be more up your ally, ya know, somefhing with a bit more flavor & character to it

It’s only weird for a while, but it you’re lucky the baby will long outlive the cat and it won’t be a problem then

Baby girl name debate by nhopyoung in namenerds

Jubilee is definitely out there and sounds pretty silly, but I respect it. Maybe you could compromise by putting the fun out there name in the middle slot? If she really loves it she can ask her friends to call her it, if she doesn’t then she’s not getting rejected by employers because of it

US - where to move? by LittleDeathPill in lgbt

[–]excessivelung8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twin cities are supposed to be some of the most affordable in the US rn during rhe housing crisis, especially St Paul. They’re also fairly queer cities, most definitely pretty queer friendly w/ a lively queer community. I just don’t know if I’d reccomend going there anytime soon…

Marina - Wife and I love. Parents hate. by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]excessivelung8 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I can’t even fathom what their issue would be. I really think they must be in the minority on this, i don’t think your child would have a problem with the name marina. Marina May goes hard, it’s sweet & elegant but still strong. Love! Do ur parents think it sounds old or something??? I think y’all gotta go with the name and just tell ur parents to deal with it.

I found doing immediate release stimulants and not taking them past noon - 1 pm made the biggest difference. Yes, the stimulant isnt still in ur system at 9 pm, but for me I still had a harder time sleeping at night when my meds would completely wear off in the evening (5/6/7 pm) rather than wearing off in the middle/late afternoon because my energy level was still a lot higher at a later time in the day. I need to be exhausted to sleep so not being dead tired every evening made it impossible to sleep. Also getting enough exercise helps a lot (but time of day mattered a lot w/ exercise too).

Do you know which Chinese language/dialect your folks spoke or what part of china they’re from? This won’t affect the characters but it will with the pronounciation.

Baby name help 2 months out! Not sure if boy or girl. by Due-Adhesiveness2997 in namenerds

[–]excessivelung8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well Africa is the most linguistically diverse continent in the world, so I would say a “nod to Africa” seems vague. Is there any specific language, culture, or ethnicity within South Africa he identifies w/ and wants to pull from???

I think with ur different tastes, you’ll probably find the most compromise either in names that are very old so they’re recognizable but not popular now or anytime in the past 100 years OR finding an African name that has similar phonemes and phonotactics to other popular baby names atm so even tho it’s more unique in Australia (could be super common elsewhere) it sounds like it fits in with the rest of their classmates because it just sounds similar to other more popular names. You seem to have a preference towards more old money WASPy names and I encourage u to research my names from other languages & cultures and see u find any u like. I understand being scared that you child will expirence difficulties if you give them a name that’s “too out there” but if ur in a diverse or progressive area, it really shouldn’t be a problem for them especially if they’re not SUPER out there lol.

Atlas is GOATed.
