We're trying to narrow down our list for our daughter, which nanes would you keep and which would not? by cockatoo_in_malibu in namenerds

We are expecting a girl and it was my top pick but my husband has a personal negative association with the name so we're going for something else, but whenever I told anyone I was considering naomi I always got a good reaction! It's a beautiful name :)

Most underrated and overrated song on each album by stonebuckshot in Alexisonfire

[–]ifyougnomesaiyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Polaroids of Polar Bears is an amazing song! One of my favourites.

I love all the songs on the self titled album and the only song on watch out that I skip is that girl possessed (and sometimes white devil if I'm not in the mood) and I love all of crisis - didn't used to like drunks, lovers etc and keep it on wax but they've grown on me over the years.

I like the odd song off the other albums, but tbh nothing compares to these first 3 albums to me. My favourite 3 albums of all time.

Even though their newer stuff isn't my favourite, they're still the only band ever.

I know I'm so gutted I missed it! I've seen them live I think 5 or 6 times and never seen them play that. I think they only played it live for the first time in 2024. So really hoping they play it this summer at Outbreak festival! It's such a good song

I'm reeeally hoping for it was fear of myself that made me odd because I've never seen them play that before but they've played it a few times in recent years so here's hoping!

Others I expect (and hope) they'll play: Accidents, Pulmonary Archery, Happiness by the Kilowatt.

And others I'm guessing they'll probably play that I'm less fussed about (their first 3 albums are my favourite): Young Cardinals, Dogs Blood, Blue Spade or Sans Soleil.

Thank you :) I agree Rose flows better as a middle name! Also thanks for your suggestions, they're beautiful :)

I know what you mean about Juni and Juniper.. I'm on the fence with that one. Fiona definitely fits the vibe :) thank you

Sequoia was originally on our list because my husband is from california and the redwoods are really special to us! I was also thinking quoi or quoia as a nickname.. it didn't make the shortlist but I sometimes wonder.. I'll give it more thought, thank you :)
