Fun, upbeat, cheerful, quirky.

You liked swings as a child and hate turnips, and grey really suits you. During the next full moon there'll be a fox in your garden.

You're southern. You love eating chicken in a variety of ways, and you want a house in the country. Maybe you've got a mason jar on the windowsill that you fill with extra change - it's the house-in-the-country fund. You love the colour blue, like that really pure heartbteakingly clean sky blue. I bet you've got your great-grandmother's recipe for some kind of pie in your possession. You totally own a gun.

You like old-fashioned things. I would guess that you are well read, but prefer stories that are both intellectually humorous, but also have quirky characters.
My guess as to your favorite era would be the 30s or 50s, but I lean towards the 50s. Mostly because both Minnie and Billie were in cinematic vogue then. I can imagine you as retro.
You use of alliteration in both names tells me that you are a linguist and have a penchant for things that flow, especially in music and poetry.
The fact that all of the names you chose are both simple and classics, tells me that you value history and usability in names and in life (meaning that you try to get the use out of everything, maybe you are crafty?).
Anyway, I also think you have a distinctive voice (audibly) with a higher tone, simply because both Minnie May and Billie Joe would sound silly on someone who has either a raspy voice or a low tone (like me). I almost wonder if you are from the UK too. Hmm, I should pay more attention, because that is likely something you have mentioned before.
Classic, fun, outgoing, but intelligent. That is my summary.
Hope I am close!

You are so right it's scary!
I love old-fashioned stuff. You were so close on eras! Yes I like the 1950s my 2nd favourite is the 1940s and my tops the 1960s (JFK, NASA etc. I'm obsessed!). So I like retro stuff. I write music and stuff so your right on that one. I love history (One of my mottos is: you must learn from the past to make a better future. After all it created the world to be how it is today.). Also the use ability of names is important. I wouldn't call my children some thing way out there but it mustn't be too popular, unique but classic if that makes sense. I do try to be crafty etc. but I frankly can't draw or be crafty it just ends up as unrecognisable a mess.
Yes my voice is rather weird. Like words like sorry my accent goes kinda american and I focus on the re sound. Don't get me started on my laugh. My friends say it sounds like I'm crying or I just go really high pitched and almost scream.
Yep I'm from the UK. I'm a country girl really.
Classic, fun, outgoing, but intelligent is almost right.
I'm more: Classic, quiet, shy but (hopefully) intelligent.
You are so good at this!

I would assume this is a single, teenage girl with a Green Day obsession. Even if I didn't already know this about you, the Billie Joe would make me think that, since I've been listening to Green Day since 1994. :/
As for Minnie May Rose...I would think these names were honoring older relatives. Maybe the May was thrown in there for no reason, but Minnie and Rose would make think, "She wants to honor both of her grandmothers."

Yeah single teenage girl obsessed with Green Day is right. But I love the name Billie Joe, well I do think of him as an inspiration as well. (It's not what you think like about drugs etc. The fact he has mental health conditions but still does what he loves and has proven to me even how anything is possible if you put in enough effort.)
No its not in honour of anyone I just love the names. Although May is my middle name which my mum gave me because it was my great nan's middle name.

Billie Joe Jason -- Pretty much screams Green Day to me. I would expect the parents to be young, maybe musicians, and very into punk/rock music.
Minnie May Rose -- Gives me a southern vibe. I would imagine Minnie to have parents that dress her up in bows and dresses, and that they were lower-to-middle class. I think May Rose is very sweet, though a bit tired in the middle spot. I would maybe think she was named after family members.

Yep Green Day means a lot to me. I play the guitar and I'm very into punk rock music.

Bows-No. Dresses- Maybe, not pink though. If dresses probably red, black or tartan. Yeah I guess I'm lower to middle class. May is my middle name and it was my great nans middle name also. I just love the name Minnie and I think Rose flows well with the name.

My first impression would be that you're pretty young. The alliteration in the names makes me think you're probably the life of the party.

Yep I'm young but certainly not the life of the party. I'm more like the quiet, kinda nerdy, kinda girl.

I think Minnie is sweet, but May and Rose are super filler-y, and Minnie May is way too cutesy and informal. Billie Joe Jason makes me cringe a little bit, because of the blatant reference to Billie Joe Armstrong (I'd assume that even without your signature!). I'd assume the parents were terribly young and perhaps hadn't made it to college/university. Planning to name your child entirely after a living celebrity is a very "young" thing to do, I think, and I always worry about quite how much the parents will end up regretting it.

That's hard. Where you're from changes everything here.
Minnie May Rose - I like it. It's a bit flowery but not floral. Or maybe cutesy would be a better word.
Billie Joe Jason - I can't get behind Billie Joe Jason at all. My first thought is he has bad teeth and is unkempt.
If you were from the US with your name choices I'd assume you aren't very well educated, that maybe you're some small town girl who got married straight out of school and for whom having babies is an accident. I'd think you a bit nosy since in small towns everybody knows everybody else's business. You'd be religious, probably Baptist.
If you're not from the US then it's a completely different story. I'd think you were English, middle class, probably from a larger city. You'd have gotten married after finishing university and waited a while to have children. You'll have spent your time with your friends and going on short holidays with your partner. I'd assume you were down to earth and really enjoyed your time being a mother.

- Uneducated parents

- Living in the US south - English girl.
- Listen to country music - No I only really listen to Green Day.
- Is all about "the american dream" - Yeah kinda I guess.
- Uneducated parents - Not uneducated but they didn't go to university. Although they both went to the local college.
