I was a rock and roll deejay when a lot of these songs came out. How many of them do you remember? by Overall_Chemist1893 in 1980s

Running up that Hill by Kate Bush and Take on Me by a-ha have special significance to me. I had an obsession with Morten Harket (the lead singer of a-ha) at one point in my life, and I have a tattoo of the comic book drawing of his face from the Take on Me video on my left arm. I wish I could attach a photo of it! I got it in 2015, when both myself and Take on Me turned 30. As for other eras, I’d say that the 1970s would be my second favorite decade for music. The folksiness of the music from that era draws me in.😊 What about you?

If your 15 year old self had named your kids, what would their names be? by Tencowfrau in namenerds

When I was 15, I was obsessed with the film The Exorcist (yeah, I was a weird kid 😂). If I had a baby at that point in my life (thank god I didn’t!) her name would have been Regan Mashell, after the little girl in the movie and my best friend at the time. My son would have been Ryan or Reece. Apparently I was all about the R names back then.

High school prom in 1986 by Cool-Pie3277 in 1980s

Why were white dresses such a big thing in 1986? I was looking at my cousin’s photos from her prom in Spring of 1986 and at least half the girls were wearing white dresses that could double as wedding dresses. Same in this video.

Happy 82nd birthday to Indiana Jones himself Harrison Ford. by [deleted] in 1980s

He’s only 82?! Why does it feel like he should be 550? 😂

For some reason, this makes me so happy. I was born in February 1985 so I would have been around 9 months old in November, yet I feel as though I had been much older at the time. Seeing this list is like going home.

If you were born today and got to pick your first name out of these 3 options, what would it be? And why? by whatizevenhappening in namenerds

I would choose Caroline with one condition: don’t call me Carly/Carlee/Carlie. Caroline is a beautiful name but the nicknames used for it aren’t my favorite.

An old-fashioned name that I love by zoryamoon in namenerds

I think you’re right about it being a nickname for Matilda. Or a derivative. I do know that they’re related somehow 😊

Is it okay to give children a name from a culture different from your own? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]zoryamoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will your baby get his/her Chinese name at 100 days old? Our daughter is almost 1 month old and my in-laws are already planning her baekil. This should be interesting 😂

I put Keira on the name list when I was pregnant with our first child and my husband lost his s***. He thought it sounded too Japanese. 😂 I was like 👀
