I do sub work at a preschool and today I met one of the newest little girls.

Her name? Perfect.

WDYT? Personally, I think it's pretty awful. I'm not a huge fan of adjective names to begin with, but I feel like this one is worse than most. It sets high expectations, and I'm guessing middle school will be hell for her. Poor girl. :(

I hate adjective names. It seems like the person is the opposite of their adjective (Chastity's aren't so...chaste, etc.).

that's so funny because my name is chastity and I had a kid in high school. yay mom for picking an awesome name.

I knew a girl named Echo who was pretty quiet.

my dad was married to another woman too, when I was born. WHO NAMES THAT BABY CHASTITY?! baby names are not supposed to be ironic.

I think using adjective names are anti self-fulfilling prophecies. A little girl named Perfect will probably be far from it.

You mean more flawed than the rest of us. ;)

It's a horrible thing to name your child.

The phrase "nobody's perfect" exists for a reason. It's not even a pretty sounding word :/

Totally agree!

D:
Watch, that child is going to turn out to be anything but perfect, lol. >_>

Ha ha! No pressure there.

I love it! I plan to use it on my next child, boy or girl, because everything I make is PERFECT!

In all seriousness, that name is not only ridiculous in meaning, but it doesn't even sound good.

I suppose... one could call her Perry? :/ Do not like at all.

Can u imagineher introducing herself, "Hi, Nice to meet you, I'm perfect."

[daydream11.livejournal.com]

Damn parents, setting kids up for pretention and egos out of control Let's hope she doesn't particularly care for fame or even the Ivies.

Oh the pick up lines she's going to hear... poor girl!

Well I plan on naming my next two children: Perfect and Awesome. Hopefully I have twins!

...I'm really just kidding, I plan on loving my children, not setting them up for a hard life.

Or she'll turn out as an extremely pushy snob who thinks she's perfect, because, well, technically she is!

Agh...imagine introducing yourself...sucky!
