He chose the name Jake because James sounded to formal. Every day for the past six months he takes his skateboard and goes to the 7-11 five miles away. He buys a soda you’d never let him have at home. You foundry recall the days when he played with dolls and danced. You can’t stop him because you worry that he’ll start doing worse. A week ago, you saw a text on his phone from Georgina about explicit activity and now your concerned. |

Haha really? I grew up in a different country so I don’t know much about 80’s culture. |
ha, what? I feel like emma is such a white girl name. This seems way off. |
Isabel just graduated from college and plans to be a speech therapist. Emmet is getting into the conservative culture and his favorite thing is going to the shooting range. He doesn’t follow anything too sketchy, but a couple of his friends are MAGA. Isabel is happy with her boyfriend who evidently inserts the word “uh” into every sentence. Shes super artsy and dreams of making an Etsy store, but for now you just buy her macrame supplies for Christmas. |

She started playing ukulele on a whim four years ago and is no obsessed. Her walls are decorated with string instruments. You and husband are concern about her wanting to go into music full time, but are trying to be supportive. Her friends all buy clothes from the thrift store but she thinks old stuff is icky. You and husband haven’t had sex in three years. |

You are Pamela and your mom wanted Paloma but your father thought it sounded foreign. Ever since you judge names and ethnicities too much. |
Inspired by Audrey Hepburn, you prefer her earlier days before the whole Holly stuff. For her thirteenth birth day she got a diamond necklace bought by her over indulgent daddy. He travels so often he throws money at problems instead of attention. |
You scrolled over every name blog to find something classy but unique. Your house is a colonial, and this year you put in new floors upstairs. The dining room has lovely white paneling that little Sabrina sneered huckleberry jam all over this morning. She’s ignoring all her pretty Christmas gifts, you knew that Kid Kraft dollhouse wouldn’t get played with. Husband spends hours on laptop in den playing video games with kids in Poland. He now speaks some polish and it confuses your sweet little girl. You do wish he’d act classier and drink cognac and play golf, market himself a little more to get a promotion. |
are twins! Dad is an NFL player and Mom likes feeling fancy. She tells everyone that she conceived the twins via IVF after being married to her linebacker for 15 years. They dated in college where she was a cheerleader but dropped out after getting pregnant and shotgun married. Sadly, miscarried that and subsequent pregnancies. Conceiving has been her FT job, and now she’s thrilled with “the M twins.” Her insta is something like themtwins .. but the girls are toddlers who spend most days with nannies while mom tries to look like a Kardashian. |
