Eugenie [title now edited by MNHQ]

[Thundercrackers]

Thinking of a girls name is exceptionally hard for me!!! This is my latest thought but dh not convinced- does it just make you think of princesses genie? I like that it's quite strong and could be ahortened to Ginny. Honest opinions welcome!! Thank you!!

Aww bless you thunder - what a mistake! I don't think you'll be able to name your daughter Eugenie now thanks to this thread! :)

Ha ha ha

I really like Eugenie

I don't think it was entirely unreasonable not to assume it was an autocorrect fail from the start, hormones do strange things to people. [[http://www.sunderlandecho.com/news/local/all-news/dream-girl-named-after-dream-m-1-1080837 this is one that comes up when conversations turn to odd baby names in toddler groups around this region!]

Hahahaha! awesome thread!
On topic I prefer Juliet to Eugenie.

doh!

Don't be embarrassed, OP, it's given us a laugh on this horrid rainy day

I quite like Eugenie and Juliet not helpful.

This is one of the best autocorrect fails ever, sorry OP!

I don't think it was entirely unreasonable not to assume it was an autocorrect fail from the start

I can't begin to work out the negatives in this sentence

If not Eugenic, Aryan sounds nice

Ha ha.

No.

Agree that it's probably best to avoid names where autocorrect has so much potential to cause embarrassment / offence / horror.

The most obvious name to get Genie nn is surely Jean?

Preminstrel - there is actually a boy called Aryan in DD's class. I think it's a popular name for boys in India, just has rather different connotations in Europe.

How about Jeanette? Could be shortened to Ginny/Genie/Jeannie...

Thanks Thunder, this thread made me laugh! damn auto-correct. Fwiw, I love Eugenie.

Bless you, OP!

There was seriously a poster who was planning to call her kid Aryan, though. That was a fun thread.
