Re: NOTD Friday - Q, R, S

  • Nope to all.

    I do like the name Rowan, but I like it for a girl. I don't even know how I got to associating it as a girl's name (probably from the Anne McCaffrey books I read as an adolescent).

  • None of these are my style.

    I'd be nervous that a kid named Schuyler would have a lisp. That's a heck of a name to saddle on someone even without a speech impediment.

  • Ha! Shirley is MILs name and Ruth is her mom. We don't have a Quintessa in the fan though.

    I like Rowan. But Jimothy will hate it.

  • Also, there are far fewer Q names than I thought, so I tried to pick the least odd of them that I hadn't already used before for NOTD! I almost went with Quetzalxochitl though. (which, by the way, IS a real name.. it means Precious flower in Aztec, apparently!)  ;)

  • Quintessa is too royal sounding for a name, and Ruth and Shirley are too old lady sounding for me.

    Quinn and Rowan are decent unisex names IMO, I don't like Quinlan and Schuyler is a family name that I associate more with a girl but would likely never use. It's not really my style.

  • I like Quinn, but not the extended versions.  I don't mind Ruth and Rowan, but likely wouldn't use them.
