Obsessive Teen Name Loving(:

Hey, guys! This week I read a post from another teenager (I'm thirteen, almost fourteen, by the way) and it got me to wondering..exactly how many teens ARE there on this website?
Comment if you fit one of the following:
A) You are a teen on this website
B) You know a teenager with said obsession
C) You WERE one of these teenagers

Add (if you are currently between the ages of thirteen and eighteen--or, heck, anyone younger, too) your favorite current combos & names, or (if you are no longer a teen) the names you liked at that age--plus which you STILL like.
My top combos (always changing, of course): Cecily Beatrice & Theodore Edwin.
:D, NameGoddess

Re: Obsessive Teen Name Loving(:

I'm a teen, too! I'm definitely obsessed with names. :)
Here are some of my favorites at the moment:

Julia Miriam
Alice Delphine
Cordelia Ivy

Matteo Oliver
William Leo
Jasper Elias

I love all of your combos, most especially Alice Delphine & Cordelia Ivy. If I had to name my second-favorite girl's combo, it would be Adelaide Ivy Philippa. And I adore both Jasper & Elias!

Post Script; is your name really Iris Rose? If so, you are insanely lucky! I was named after my grandparents, Sidney "Sid" and Wanda Kaye, who goes by Kaye, so I'm Sydney Kaye--but as much as I love them, I sometimes wish my mom & dad had thought my name over a little more! I like the story behind it, though, and I could never get myself to change it, now.

Thanks! I really like Cecily and Theodore, too! My name's actually Rosa Iris. I wasn't named for anyone in particular (I guess my parents just liked the names), so I think it's cool that you're named after your grandparents!

Haha, thanks :D When I told my mom that I liked the name Theodore Edwin she looked at me like I'd lost my mind. (Chuckle, chuckle.) And my grandmother was aghast at my love of Edwin, which is in her words, the epitome of "a nerdy little boy", ha. But mostly they just take it when I make them listen to my names, even back to the days in 5th grade when I was set on naming a daughter Ireland Zabeth...ah, goodness!

Re: Obsessive Teen Name Loving(:

I'm 18...and abolutely LOVE names ^_^ My mom thinks I'm nuts, but...ah well!

Favorite combos-
Henry Albus-- dead set on this one! Albus-- Albus Dumbledore!
Charles Atticus nn Charlie-- I adore "Charlie" & Atticus Finch is amazing.

Lily Tonks-- I know Lily is super popular, but it's just my favorite name! Tonks-- Nymphadora Tonks from Harry Potter.
Lucy Ginevra-- adore Lucy, Ginevra from Harry Potter.


Sadly, my mom really doesn't like Henry! Thinks it's a girl's name- nn for Henrietta. I told her no way, and I keep mentioning "Henry" and she's not complaining anymore..even smiled when I had a dream about him! Won't even mention Albus as the mn! She'll lose it. =P She likes Lily, though...Tonks same as Albus. (She'll get the HP obsession...she knows me!)

Haha, I make my parents listen to my name lists too! They think it's crazy that I'm so obsessed with names and spend so much time on Nameberry... "Are you on Nameberry again!?" but they're mostly supportive! Ireland Zabeth, haha, I used to make up names like Roselena or Meliana when I was that age.

Re: Obsessive Teen Name Loving(:

I was so that person as a teenager! lol i had cabbage patch dolls that i would register online and constantly change their names because i would find new names that i liked! lol my mom thought i was so weird because i had like 13 or 14 of those dolls. lol just so i could name a bunch of them!

Re: Obsessive Teen Name Loving(:

I'm 17. My current favorites are...hm...I'm not sure. I like too many. :)

Out of curiosity, is anyone planning to highlight name love on college apps?

Re: Obsessive Teen Name Loving(:

I was definitely a name-loving teen! I love your name lists--each and every one of yours. :-)

You're all lovely, and your parents should be very proud of you. :-)

Nameberry attracts fantastic teenagers, and I'm so impressed by you all!

My favorite names from your lists: Cordelia Ivy, Jasper Elias, Henry (I can't recall the middle!), and Lucy Ginevra. I also really love Cecily and Theodore!

I hope that school is going well for all of you! :-)

Take care!
