a friend's baby announcement... Emily Bliss.

WDYT? I like Emily but I just don't think Bliss is a name....

Yeah, this combination is cute, but I'm just not feeling Bliss in general. It reminds me of a name I saw on Nameberry: Agnes Josephine Bliss. I told my sister about it since she's a Josephine, and she said, "Agnes Josephine is beautiful, but Agnes Josephine Bliss? Really?"

I can roll with one-syllable word names like Grace, Rose, Faith, Joy, or Hope, but once we get to Bliss, Lark, Plum, and tree names, it looks like we've landed in "trying too hard" territory. I agree with you: Not every word is a name.
