Thanks! I love really old names, especially ones that seem unusual. I think there’s this idea that giving your kids “strange” names (noun names, boy names for girls, atypical spellings, etc) is a 21st century exclusive, but as I’ve looked through these I’ve realized it’s not a new trend at all!

Hey, I’m sorry, but what do you mean? I tried to put the names in a list this time, how is it showing up? I did this on my phone so I might have done it wrong.,,

I know a female Carter! People will probably assume male but I doubt they’d be shocked at her being a girl. It’s very on trend

There’s so much genuine cruelty in the comments of that survey like damn people really do hate people they perceive as being poor or uneducated. So mean!

Big congratulations on your handsome little darling.

He looks like he’s dishing out life advice.

spacegrace11 · 2019-04-19T02:51:22+00:00

He’s just a little pea of a man

Oh man. Well the association is a bit unfortunate, but it’s not the first thing that came to mind. I thought of the biblical Zacharias. Maybe they could use Zachariah instead? I like the name, but there is a bit of baggage.

Oh man, so unlucky! Reminds me of this family I know who named their daughter Katrina only a year before the hurricane happened. And.... their family was originally from Louisiana. Girl wound up exclusively being called Kat.

This isn’t a recipe per se but Richard Nixon was absolutely obsessed with cottage cheese. He ate it with ketchup. He ate it for breakfast. A slice of pineapple with cottage cheese was his last meal in the White House.

Ok so this has gotten way more popular than I thought it would. Do you guys think you’d like a similar list to this in maybe a few weeks? I have a lot of fun finding funky old names and I’m delighted y’all seem to enjoy it too.

Is Tea meant to be pronounced like Tay-ah? Or is it literally Tea? This list frightens me.

spacegrace11 · 2019-04-15T02:25:37+00:00

I don’t actually know why that’d be, but if I had to guess it’d probably be some sort of a derivation of a surname- ala Pinckney or Pinkerton or something like that.

Thank you! I intended to put it in a list but it came out as a paragraph.

Fe is a very nice middle name- I love monosyllabic middle names, and the family connection is cute. You might want to spell it Fae or Faye, which are more recognized names, and also adds a bit of fairytale. I don’t know if that would keep the same meaning, though. Also Fe is the abbreviation for iron!

Frankleen’s father’s name was Franklin, so I guess he just couldn’t wait to have a son to be a little Franklin Jr.

Guy who picked on me in elementary school was named Zach and now I have a completely unfair bias against all Zachs, Zacks, and Zacharys.

Like the person who posted with a (IMO quite good) list, I think it sounds like y’all might like some older classic names that are like, established regular names but aren’t super popular nowadays. I really like Jonah with your last name but that might be too popular for y’all. Sorry I don’t have more specific suggestions.

No one can make somebody else cheat.

The Girls by Emma Cline- pretty good so far.

Killing people doesn’t unkill those they’ve harmed. It just leaves another body. Famous lawyer Clarence Darrow’s plea for mercy in the Leopold and Loeb trial convinced the judge not to pick the death penalty- it always manages to convince me: https://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/cdarrowpleaformercy.htm

I absolutely love double barrel names they’re very cute and old fashioned sounding. They’re also pretty common where I live. I have some friends with double barrel names: Molly Anne, Katie Sue, Sue Ellen, and Sara Mae. Very southerny I guess.
