[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister was telling me about some of the wacky names of kids that her daughter goes to preschool with. These included the likes of Kynslee (actual spelling), Ridge, Remington, Jazlyn, Walker.

For reference, this is at a preschool in a suburb of Dallas, Texas. It is not a lower class area by any means.[/quote]

I wouldn't choose any of those names, but most will be okay. Walker is definitely southern but a fairly accepted name -- people will accept it. Remington will go by Remi, which is actually a great name, and Jazlyn will go by Jazz or Jazzy, which is still a little different but acceptable for a nickname. Kynslee's spelling is atrocious but Kinsley is actually a top 100 name in the US and I know a kid at our UMC, Mid-Atlantic, highly educated elementary school with it. You get used to it.

I don't know what to do with Ridge. I guess you just acclimate. Hopefully he has a halfway decent personality.[/quote]

One of my kids went to preschool with a boy named Ridge, and this was years before Covid unfortunately. And it definitely did not work with the child’s last name either. [/quote]
