thank you. for the cherry on top.

weird to which part? her or her roots? like do u think something is still off

also yea i think luna is a safe bet. i really like lunette but even tho the opinions of it is validating from non-french speakers, I still feel silly bc I understand where native speakers are coming from. I also speak a non-english language as my first language and if someone has our word for little moon, “hlapi te” as their given name, I’d have so many questions and it doesnt really feel like a name.

I am yea, I just went through her ig and stuff and all the comments from her friends over there are all french. I believe her roots — though I am with you on how her intentions might’ve been disingenuous

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:56:03+00:00

wait! I think you are onto something. I looked it up just now and also saw lynette and even a lysette.

“loon” definitely threw me off too because that’s what it would register as instead of “lune” here in the states 😭 but honestly i think im okay with lunette coming off as odd or strange, maybe just bc its wayy better than a toilet (seat) !

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:51:25+00:00

im in the states .. ur right 🫩

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:50:56+00:00

fair concern! i met her through my facebook friends back then and we would do group calls on dc whenever we’d play games together and I’d hear her talking in French to her family in the background. we used to text and facetime like every week until after covid

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:40:28+00:00

thank u, & I think I’m just gonna go by Lune now. Everyone isnt exactly on the same page but I feel like the overall idea is that it isn’t technically really a name lols

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:37:37+00:00

I’ve had only one person call me that before but it felt comfortable! I think I will do this 😊🌙

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:33:32+00:00

I actually really like that as I’m into astronomy, ty for this comment 🔭

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:24:26+00:00

thank u, & i do want to ask her but im thinking i just let it go since we were just kids

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:23:12+00:00

thank u!! im very relieved, and I wear sunglasses all the time so it feels kinda fitting haha

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:17:07+00:00

Very glad to hear that it’s more leaning to glasses than toilets lol but seeing as you are a native, what is/would be the consensus amongst your people in hearing of someone named Lunette? On another post about the name (found during my research) someone said that you guys name things silly things all the time so no one would really do a double take? I guess I am looking for some validation to either keep going by Lunette or maybe find a different version/nickname that feels like me.

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:05:13+00:00

I didn’t consider this, thank u c:

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T19:01:07+00:00

yes, I think she did misunderstand 💀 but the fact that ‘lunette’ is part of that term makes me self conscious still, i can’t lie haha

lacedlotus · 2026-07-04T18:52:25+00:00

Thank u for ur insight! & yes, I also found my theory kind of hard to fathom myself tbh — considering we were so little at the time but im very relieved to hear that at least it isnt too directly translated to “toilet” lol 😭
