What’s the name of the best person you know?

[jinha]

I really like hearing baby name suggestions based on real people. For example “what about the name, Arty? I grew up with an arty he was the nicest guy ever”

Share the name of someone you think is amazing and why. And / or do you know a few people with the same name and can make a statement like “I like the name Maya, never met a bad Maya.”

Malcolm.

I know 5 Emmas. All lovely people.
Anya too never met one i didn't like.

Oddly, I know a very nice Sheridan too. Don't see him often but he is extremely nice and a great Dad.

That makes 2, and that must be something like 50 percent of all the Sheridans in the world?

As a teacher, every boy called Marcus, Stephen or Connor was hard work.
The best person in my life, who seems to be university loved, is Lydia. She just has the sweetest soul, yet she's also ambitious, intelligent, successful. She's done well for herself despite her name being inspired by Lydia Bennett, who was considerably more wayward!

Oh the Malcoms I know are horrific!

Angela. She also spent some of her years as a nun. Lovely pure heart.

I know a lovely Angela too actually - though she certainly wasn't a nun!

And then there was the very insecure, selfish one I went to school with ...

Ruby a friend nearly all my life, met at nursery still friends and love each other like sisters.
she is so kind and caring and I love her so much.

Adam, Derryck, Steve

Venus, Kate, Carol

The kindest person I know is called Sarah. Also, I have never known a horrible Helen. I have met many Helens and they've all been good sorts.

Haha I’m so happy to see I’ve come up on this list several times and I do think I’m a real one even if I say so myself 🤣

Don’t call them Lorna. I’ve had 3 in my life, all toxic and batshit crackers 😂

Casting a negative vote against Helen. They are definitely not all nice!

The nicest in my life is probably Claire. And of the men I would say Adam.

i see Katie has been mentioned a few times now. I only know one and she’s a complete arsehole.

Sarah

Thomas
Rebecca
Max
Chloe
Mark
Megan
Cassie
Caroline
Lauren

Helen.
Gay.
Josephine.

Sarah. A wonderful person.

They're always Helen

Shannon.

Rebecca's are trash.

Ellen and Kate
My mum and my granny

Susan

Ugh well duh

I honestly can't think of one. Even the people I like most in my life have let me down at some time. I'm going to go instead with the name of one of the pets I have had the privilege of living with, Henrietta.

Elizabeth ❤️ I also think you never meet a Debbie who isn't absolutely lovely!
