Friendzy!

[aggienaut]

I thought I'd do something the lovely boxsofrain did a bit ago, and declare a Friendzy (Friending frenzy!). Actually I'm not sure she intended for it to work out quite like this but it did: (1) answer the following questions in a comment; (2) As Boxes says, "Also to make this more fun, feel free to read other peoples comments and reply to them with something nice about them. ... Make friends, add each other, mingle, just please be nice." (3) extra points if you mention the Friendzy in your own LJ and send people over to the party! (=

Re: Pet Names

[spiderlilyfairy.livejournal.com]

yeah.. funny thing, when we got Seamus, we'd decided that if we had a little boy. we'd name him Seamus.. then used the name on the dog. He also goes by Shammy, Shamsham, and Shameless. He's our grand old man (12), so he's a bit snarky w/the younger dogs, but he still tries to crawl into mom's lap (all 50 lbs of him- hence the "Shameless"...). We do love our furkids.

I hate it when a name is ruined for me by knowing someone who gives it a bad connotation. =/

I've got a friend named Shalane, which I think is a pretty cool name. Earlier I was thinking she potentially ruined the name for me (this was back when she was in jail), but she's kept her nose clean for a few years now and I do consider her a good friend so the name might be not currently on ruined status.

On the subject of odd names I've always thought "Kestrel" would make a cute girls name. Sounds like it COULD be a name and its a small bird of prey which is kind of cool.

That would work.. I could see naming at least a pet Kestrel, if not a kiddo..

It would be particularly funny naming a pet that, since the pet would presumably not be a kestrel. Kind of like naming a chicken "cat" or something, only more obscure.
