So my friend and I saw "The Nanny Diaries" today and they had some interesting names it is. I'm listing a few below and what I think of them. wdyt.

Grayer - this was the little boy in the movie. he was adorbale but my friend and i made fun of this name the whole time saying blacker, bluer, greener etc etc.
Annie - Scarlett Johansons character. This name has actually been growing on me a lot lately.
Lynette - not my style but not horrible
Hayden - A male in the movie...early 20'sish. really hot haha. Another name that is growing on me despided the jayden, aiden trend. not sure if i like it better on a boy or a girl though.

Then there was one scene where a group was quickly introduced. All friends of Haydens. Early 20's guys:
Carter - i really like this one but dont know if i would ever use it
Kenny - eh Ken is much better
John - it too common for me
Reggie - no. nms at all

I think thats all of the onces that stuck out in my mind.

In the book, her name was just "Nanny." Wonder why they changed it.

I like the name Grayer, but I wouldn't use it. It's also totally a name you would hear used on the Upper East Side. I loved the book because I went to school with some of the kids of those moms, and the authors clearly knew people like that too.

I think most of the time Reggie is short for Reginald :)

I like Grayer.

Annie's my sister's name, and everything (including her mail, classlists, etc.) has her named Anne, but Annie is her given name.

I kind of like Grayer though.

they changed her name to Annie? thats so ridiculous.
in the novel that characters name is Nanny.
