That moment when...

edited January 2014 in Baby Names
You lurk on BMBs to scout out names and you come across some that make you want to scream "NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" But you can't say anything because they didn't ask and you're technically not suppose to be there anyway. Whoops! :-\" :-$

That was probably a FFFC.

    Has totally happened to me on the BMB-becomes-VERY-intimate-Facebook group.  But there is little doubt that some people feel the same way about my daughter's name and our first choice boy name didn't really get a warm reception either. Oh well. Can't please all the people all the time - right?

    My family is a Foreign Service family. Families like mine are posted in every corner of the globe. We live our lives away from family, friends and the conviences and comforts of home. We often live and work in dangerous places among those that misunderstand our intentions and purposes. Sometimes members of our ranks sacrifice our lives to further diplomacy.  Please remember that we serve too. And I'm always open to questions.

    On my last BMB, if someone posted an awful name and asked for opinions, I would share my honest one and then direct them to the BNB (insert evil laugh).

    There were a couple, but I can't say due to bump etiquette.

    I think most members of my BMB have terrible tastes in names. I typically follow the "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" rule. Somebody did post a poll recently that included the names Alyce and Kaelyn. I couldn't help myself - I dared her to post it on here. She did and finally got some honest opinions. :)

    Jess & Adam, married 2009, precious Audrey born in 2011. BFP 1/6/13, 6-wk MMC discovered at 9 wks 2/11/13. D&C 2/18/13, second D&C 4/23/13 for retained placenta.

    Now I feel like I am missing something and I need to start trolling the BMBs.
