A coworker told me he and his girlfriend were naming their baby Paxton and it took every ounce of self control to not groan "Ughhhhh!" I think the people picking that as a name think it's really cool but ... it's not.

It reminds me of Paxil

When i was in college, i met a girl who called herself, "Eli."

her given name was Elizabeth. this was the coolest nickname for elizabeth ive ever encountered.

I knew an Elizabeth who called herself Lish. Now, that was cool!

I was coming here to say Wolfgang.

Love Zinnia. Almost named our DD but it’s just the name of some scientist. (Which is totally fine, but I don’t know much about him.) If it had some other origin, I would have used it.

Zinnia is a flower.

Yes, I know. But named after a person. I didn’t want to name my kid indirectly after someone I know little about.

Nah... ethnic-group names are weird. I wouldn't name a kid French or Chinese or whatever so Dutch is a no-go.

Yes, it's weird, especially if you're not Dutch.

People get nicknames like Dutch, Swede, and Frenchie in lumber camps. Or on the cattle trail.

I know a brother and sister named Azalea and Zion.
