[Opinions] ah!

On this site, it seems that people don't like masculine names on girls, anything remotely popular, creative or different spellings, even if those spellings are accepted by the community.Just so YOU know!If you are extremely indecisive it may not help you pick a name, OR if you want a classic name, this is the place!This is a name for you right? Which name can you see people calling you? Blake? Charley?If those are the names you like... go for it. It's your name. But you mentioned Chloe first. You loved it and were thinking of changing your name to it right? What happened? I'm using the name on for my daughter 100%.

Hope is bang-onI would definitely not look for any sort of consensus from us on here to help you decide - we all have divergent opinions and it can actually get a little scrappy when people's favorites are attacked!This place is good for seeing if combos have a good rhythm and for checking out the popularity of names - but as for aesthetics, trust no one but yourself! :)I think you are just the right height to be a Chloe, myself! Think of yourself as as a newborn - nobody knows what the baby will look like at 25 years of age. The name becomes the child. The name becomes YOU.

I don't know, it's just that people who actually know me have suggested that Charley and Blake suit me better than Chloe does.

So who knows you better: you, or them?

Are these names that they like, or that you like? And how do you think they suit you?When I was changing my name, people loved to criticize my options. They hated everything, or tried to push their favourite names on me. So I just stopped telling them, and just went out and did it one day. Nothing they could say about it then! :)
