Help[Games] You say, you think!
I haven't see one of these in awhile so I thought I'd make one.
For those of you new to the board or those of you who would like a refresher on the rules, it's quite simple, you will be introduced to a child or children and you will respond in two ways: one is what you would say to the children and or their parents and the other is what you would think to your self about their name[s], there's no right or wrong answer. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Meet my Daughter Elowen.
You say: Sounds so medieval!
You Think: What a beautiful name.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is my son Archer.

Thea.
You say: Aww.
You Think: They both start with T...ehhh...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These are my daughters, Freya, Siri, Eira and Brynja.
You say: How do you pronounce those last two again?
You think: They're a little hard to pronounce, but gorgeous names. I just wish Siri for the apple products didn't have to sort of ruin the name.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'd like you to meet my sons, Magnus and Cornelius, we call them Gus and Nelius.
You say: Very regal.

Meet my Daughter Elowen.
You say: How lovely. Do you have strong connections with Cornwall?
You Think: I bet they've never even heard of Cornwall!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is my son Archer.
You say: I love the name Archer!
You Think: I really do love this name.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...and the these are our twins Thomas and Thea.
You say: Lovely names.
You Think: I like the way that, on paper, the names look quite similar, but when said out loud they are not very similar at all. Better than Theo and Thea.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These are my daughters, Freya, Siri, Eira and Brynja.
You say: Freya is lovely, and the others are nice too.
You think: Poor Freya sticks out like a sore thumb, at least she has the knowledge that she got the best name to console herself with.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'd like you to meet my sons, Magnus and Cornelius, we call them Gus and Nelius.
You say: What unusual nicknames!
You Think: What stupid nicknames! You're obviously trying too hard to be upper class but don't want to appear as though you're trying too hard to be upper class so use stupid, pretentious nicknames to hide the painfully upper-cut full names.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is my son Jory.
You say: How unusual!
You think: Where on Earth did they get Jory from?!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These are my sons, Alastar, Ronan, Liam and Finley.
You say: Do you hail from Ireland?
You say: How lovely. Do you have strong connections with Cornwall?
You Think: I bet they've never even heard of Cornwall!
