I'm kinda tired but mostly just annoyed with you.

Hideous. Reminds me of sterling silver

It has grown on me quite a bit. It is my adopted son #2's name and it fits him very well. I do not feel it is a stuck up name at all but that is probably because my child is NOT stuck up, spoiled or bratty.

I don't like it.

I really hate it. First thought: pretentious

I picture a snobby, spoiled, rich kid in pastel polos. The one the steals daddy's whiskey and isn't really a "good boy" like he appears.

...who is probably also a complete AW. Speaking of AWs...

Agreed.

And I see what you did there, MJ. Clever.

Love it.

I grew up with a kid named Sterling. For the longest time I didn't think it was a real name, but it kind of grew on me. I like it, but I agree with the PP who said it comes off as pretentious.

Ooh, sneaky MJ. You weren't such a snot last night.

My mom actually went to school with a guy named Sterling Silver (FN, LN). That's all I think of, too.

It's okay though. A lot of people are wittier in hindsight. Only not everyone can go back and edit their words like you can on an Internet forum.

Mel, really, if you can't figure that one out you probably don't belong on The Bump. Not everything needs to be quoted. I know you didn't get to 3,000 plus posts by relying on quote trees.

Also, it was sort of an A B conversation anyway. So C your way out.

Ba dum ching.

I actually like Sterling. I think I've posted this on this board before but I had a REALLY good looking waiter named Sterling once and it had been the first time I had ever heard the name. So it has a positive association for me.
