Thought this would make a fun thread and maybe also provide names for people that are choosing that they wouldn't have thought of otherwise.

Think of a name (your child's or any name really) and provide 3 clues.

Other posters have to guess the name and once someone gets it right, it's their turn!

I'll start:

2 syllables

Very definitely a boys name but there is a feminine version

2 very common abbreviations/nicknames

@mrsabc1 has it! Your turn Smile

Air = Jane Eyre
Graciousness = Jane means 'God is gracious'
No nonsense = plain Jane

The three clues have evolved this way over the last 37 pages. It's fun and addictive Smile

That was tricky :)

Ok...

A flower, but probably not as you know it.

A name in its own right, but seems a derivative.

Could be described as lazy
