Re: NOTD Wednesday

  • Serenity - lovely word, a little weird as a name

    Penelope - I love this name, but DH is not a fan

    Felicity - another pretty one, but wouldn't make my short list


    Nathan - absolutely on the list for a boy someday

    Oscar - kind of cute, actually! I might consider it, though there are others I'd probably pick over it

    Landon - meh...it's not awful, but not one I'd use

  • The girls are all nms

    I like Nathan, but an ex ruined it. Plus I already have a cousin with that name. I also like Oscar but won't use it. Reminds me of a good friend from college though! Landon is nms

  • Love Nathan. It is on the short list for a boy.

    I don't think I would use a virtue name so no to Serenity and Felicity. Plus I would be tempted to scream "SERENITY NOW!!!"

    Penelope is NMS, but I like the NN Penny or even Nell.

    Oscar and Landon are okay, but I wouldn't use them.

    I could hold you for a million years
    To make you feel my love.

  • Serenity - No.  I may side-eye someone who named their child this, too.

    Penelope - Not bad, but I don't think it would make the top 10.

    Felicity - NMS.

    Nathan - I like this name, but it's too close to my sister's.

    Oscar - No.  Even better if the kid is a grouch.

    Landon - Nope.
