[Opinions] Re: Mindy
Ugh, I hate Mindy with a burning passion. To me it's too frothy, childish and simpleton. It's even worse than Misty, I think.I'd hate it less if I found out it were a NN for Melinda but then I'd just really wonder why you wouldn't rather go by the much prettier/classier/timeless Melinda.I picture a ditzy cheerleader who is sort of catty, has a "holier than thou" attitude and thinks everything in the world is going to come easy to her. But in the end, she drops out of community college, has 4 kids by 4 different men and works at the hardware store in her hometown.... which would totally be fine if she hadn't grown up looking down her nose at everyone "beneath" her
for the record, the Mindy I know in real life is sweet and normal enough, but it never has changed my opinion of the name

The Mindy I knew had a somewhat ditzy air, though she wasn't really ditzy, could sometimes be catty, sometimes had a "holier than thou" attitude, but she realized that about herself and was working on overcoming it, and never went to college. She had 4 kids but only by two different men. The eldest had a different father than the other three, and actually, Mindy was not sure who the father of her eldest was...it could have been any one of three different men. She worked, not at a hardware store, but at a cafe, which is about on a par with a hardware store. And she did grow up looking down her nose at everyone "beneath" her, but that was something she was working on, too. All in all, your impression is quite accurate when it comes to my friend Mindy.We've lost touch. I really miss Mindy.
