Help[Opinions] You're assuming everything.
in reply to a message by Lizzie_Jay
First of all, you're acting as if everyone automatically is going to absolutely loathe the names Harry and Sophie as soon as they see them. That's a pretty strange assumption, considering those are two very legitimate names that are pretty widely liked among BtNers for the most part. I've never seen anyone on this site trash those names for being "boring".
Then, you say that everyone on this site likes names like Ignatius and Horatio. Once again, that's an assumption. And, once again, that's not true. I certainly don't find any attraction of neither Ignatius nor Horatio, but that doesn't mean they're not legitimate names.
Next time, you could try not to irresponsibly stereotype everyone on this site. It was unnessecary to assume that we'd all hate your neice and nephew's names, and then that we'd suggest names that you don't like. If you didn't want us to comment on your neice and nephew's names, you could have just left it at that.

Okay
1) The post was edited due to spelling errors and the fact i put "lol" in there. I know chatspeak isnt allowed, so i took it out and corrected the spelling error. Don't automatically assume things.
2) I believe the sentence you're all so up in arms about is "Well neither do i. Lots of people are more into names like Ignatius or Horatio and seem to think Harry and Sophie are dull." That is true. And as for me "assuming you'd all hate my neice and nephew's names" all i did was ask that you don't critique them, becuase i was asking for opinions on the unnamed and unborn baby. Sophie and Harry already have names.
3) I have been told, on this site before that their names are daull and boring.
4) I was not directly "targetting" anybody with my Ignatius and Horatio comment. I certainly apologise if anyone felt that way but it was entirely unintended. Horatio and Ignatius were the first two names that came to mind.
