For some reason, my local paper and my parents' local paper don't do much when it comes to posting baby names. Anyway, I saw this and thought it was cute.

WDYT?

Only one word came to mind...

Blah.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Blah indeed.

Serenity is this century's Patience and Chastity. I do secretly like Makenna, though.

McKenna sounds pretty but looks ugly. Serenity's pretty, too, but makes me think of Sailor Moon. It doesn't really have any good nicknames, either.

Serenity bladder control products come to mind. Ick, not exactly a good thing to share a namesake with your child.

I'm torn between blah and bleh.

I don't like Serenity as a name at all. McKenna isn't bad, just not my taste.

[lneef.livejournal.com]

Serenity's a virtue name (with no history) and what if the kid isn't very serene? It also sounds like a romance novel and/or stripper.

McKenna... well, to start with, "Mc" means "son of".

Also, it's way too close to rhyming for my taste.

I could come up with more things wrong with it, but those are a good start.

I really hate McKenna.

[bornto-fly.livejournal.com]

Ewww, on both counts. I highly dislike words as names, and Serenity is one of the worse ones. I guess you could use the nickname Sera, which wouldn't be bad, but it's just...ugh. And McKenna is way too trendy, especially because of the spelling. Makenna would be better.

Serenity McKenna.

McKenna is cute.
but together it reminds me of a rapper.

serenity mckenna aka serena mckenna.
serenity is what my great grandma wore when she peed herself.

Am I the only one that automatically things Firefly when I see Serenity?

I don't hate the name but I'd always secretly wonder if I didn't do it just because of fandom. So, I'd never use it.

[nothingbuthp.livejournal.com]

That was my first thought as well.

What is she is a real little terror with the name Serenity? McKenna is okay, but Serenity? No...

Trinity Madison, meet your sister!


:o(

[isoldereverie.livejournal.com]

heh I feel like I'm all alone on this one, but I like it. I think Serenity is a sweet name. I like Trinity too. Lucidity is another one that I have heard of before-nn Luci.

I think it's cute, myself. Otherwise, I doubt I would have posted it. I really wish people in this community would learn to be a little more constructive with their criticism. "Ick" and "Bleh" don't qualify as posts, if you ask me.

Yay!!!! I love it so much!!! It might be geek parents who named their kid Serenity (and I'm assuming it's a girl) because it's from the Firefly series by Joss Whedon (who did Buffy the Vampire Slayer). There's such an awesome theme song that goes with it about Serenity. "You can't take the sky from me. You can't take Serenity..." Wow. I'm so incredibly psyched that someone named their kid that and if they did it because of the Firefly series, I'd be even more geeked. The movie that came out after the series is called Serenity.

McKenna reminds me of the movie Somewhere in Time with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour. I like it actually.

The two names together are very pretty and I really really like it.

[briannablade.livejournal.com]

I agree.

[briannablade.livejournal.com]

I thought of it too. Yay for firefly!

[slayerkate.livejournal.com]

I like the movie Serenity, but I'm more of a Buffyverse junkie than anything else (and that doesn't include Angel because I thought he was, in the words of Spike, a ponce.)

Yuck.
