Sibset:

Ryker (7)
Kaitlyn (6)
Jaxsyn (2)
Alexsys (1)

Jaxsyn bothers me the most because they live in the city Jackson. idk.

Yet another terrible sib-set

Saw these at work today and just had to share:

Khierson (f)
Koryn (f)

both aged tweens to early teens.

I like the sound of Khierson, but I like Kiersten (with the t sound) better, and Koryn I want to say as Corn not Corinne.

A family friend and his wife had their first daughter together over the weekend, and I have been waiting to see the exact spelling of it to share it with all of you: Kahlin Gwendolyn; Gwendolyn after the child's late grandmother (edited to include pronunciation: Kay-lin, as best as I know).

At first, when she came back from visiting them, my mother thought it was Caden, and I swore a little. Then she thought it might've been something like Kaylee/its various spellings. But their Facebook was updated today, and it is Kahlin Gwendolyn.

Which I still think is pretty horrible. My mom thinks it's a nice name, just with a bad spelling, but I think it's just a bad name. WDYT?

The Accidental Name

[pegasus2o5.livejournal.com]

I thought this was one of the oddest naming stories I've heard:

A co-worker of mine is named Elaine. When she was born, her mother had no idea what to name her, so she had all her sisters and sisters-in-law put names in a hat, and the one she drew, was the baby's name. On top of which, she misread the name from the hat: it was supposed to be Eileen.

My co-worker just laughs, I guess she's had her whole life to get used to it, but I'd feel very strange about having a totally random mean that meant absolutely nothing to my parents or even my aunt!

I met someone with a real doozy of a name today: Krystail (pronounced like Crystal).

Also, on a completely unrelated note, what do you think of the name Harvey? It's really growing on me.

Naturey names.

The name River or Rivers has really been growing on me lately.

WDYT

What naturey names do you like?

Edit: I hope no one is thinking that I'm heartless and encouraging people to make fun of the names. Feel free to simply say which ones are your favorites.

Two short stories: 1) I saw the name "Heavenly Grace" the other day. and 2) I had a dream and the baby was named Elizabeth Taylor [last name]. Which I thought was really weird, but when I woke up, realized most people wouldn't think twice about Taylor Elizabeth.
