Yes! And wasn't Cinnamon the name of Stacey Q's character when she guest-starred on an episode of The Facts of Life?


Stacey Q! Now there's there's a blast from the past. "Two of hearts..."

Define "Disney" name - like oh, crap, we named our daughter Jasmine and then Aladdin exploded or more like Thumper because they just loved that bunny so damn much?

That's not out there, it's in there. In the spice drawer. Don't.

How about you name your baby Cindy or Cynthia, and call her "Cinnamon" as an at-home nickname?

I prefer Garlic Powder, but some people don't like double names.

I don't know if you're a troll, but I actually knew a girl named Cinnamon. That's what she went by and by all accounts well adjusted. (I think Cindy is an atrocious name.)

I wouldn't do it OP. If you insist on a spice name--maybe Saffron.

January is a nice, unusual name. Just popped into my head. Poppy is sweet too. Penelope. These are slightly retro names that sound cool with last names like Smith. There is also an Indian name, Simran, if you really like the Cinnamon name. Am i the only one who hears, "i wanna live with the cinnamon girl?" Good song.

So you're basically guaranteeing her career as a stripper. Nice.

I mean, Gwyneth named her daughter Apple. How different is Cinnamon, really?
