As a teacher who has to learn bajillions of students' names, I gotta say I find the more interesting and unique names to be cool and useful. Last year we had four Jesuses and three Jonathans. Boring and confusing. I'm glad that white people are finally getting on the cool names train. You might find them strange but Eilee is better than another fuckin' Samantha. Except Reagyn, of course. That's tantamount to child abuse.

As someone who works in gift shops, these names are bad because the parents who chose them whine that they can't find their kid's names on any personalized items on a daily basis and I hate it.

I didn't find a personalized anything with my name on it until I went to England when I was 10. I saved that purple octopus keychain in a shoebox until I was old enough to drive. Also the lifetime of correcting people on spelling/pronunciation sucks!

My name is also It got more popular when I was a teenager though so nowadays I can find it a lot more often. Edit: looking at the Social Security site it's gotten a lot less popular in the last 5 years.  I guess those keychains will vanish soon. Although my name has always been more popular in parts of Europe. Zero One has a new favorite as of 20:36 on Aug 12, 2019 |

You might find them strange but Eilee is better than another fuckin' Samantha. You're a teacher and have to make an effort though. The experience those kids will have outside of the classroom will be something else entirely. I say it with a great deal of confidence: do not give your children such names unless you want them to use their more average middle name as soon as they can, because you'll be doing them no favours. I'm an immigrant whose first name is reasonably common in Eastern Europe but is unfamiliar enough in the US to cause people's brains to short-circuit. Just calling for takeout becomes a struggle when dealing with even the most well-intentioned of people. Let's not get into the obvious issues of dealing with prejudiced fucks.

Based on those names, these kids won't have to deal with prejudice. Worst they'll have to deal is saying things like "Give me a venti soy latte, extra foam. Name is Jennifer but with all Ys."

Jack is more common these days as its own name than as a nickname for John, it seems.

Detective No. 27 posted:My department has a Kristen, Kristin, and Kristyn. What I can't understand is, if you're going to go with a wacky "creative" spelling to show off what a free-thinking individualist you are, why wouldn't you just pick a more uncommon name to begin with. I lost track of the number of different variations on Caitlyn/Kaitlyn/Caytlyn/etc I grew up with.

I work in a doctors’ office and we get some loving naaaaaames man. And then people get mad when you ask how they spell their son Jaxsyn’s name. gently caress. Original names are fine but why the gently caress would you spell an established name in a new and awful way.

Um, yeah, we have 4 separate stores at the place I work and all the staff rotates between them. Sometimes on the same day. I'm sorry you find this outrageous. You'd be surprised how many millions of dollars in sales all that crap makes in a year too. (No, not Disney).
