As someone who has taken quite a while to embrace names other than the ones I automatically love as my favourites, I'd advocate the 'don't click, don't look' advice you've been getting. Some of us may be a bit repetitive. Some of us may be unaware that people notice. Some of us are in the midst of having children and have a hard time thinking outside the must-find-perfect-next-name-for-my-family mindset. I have been there for a few years myself. I'd probably be embarrassed if I looked back over my own repetitive pleading posts for a sibling to match my kids' names.

I'm not saying your opinion on the matter is wrong. But a smidgen of understanding and/or tact would go a long way.

As for the way you post your opinions on the names themselves - carry on! I find you lack of tact refreshing!
