Another Large Mormon-coded Influencer Family on Youtube with Interesting Names
The Jones / WhataboutaubAgain, I don't make a habit of subscribing to these channels due to the ethical implications, but I get tossed these videos sometimes because I usually click on it and scroll for at least long enough to learn the names... and my morality is compromised yet again. Sorry Morality! Interestingly, I actually found a short which said that the mom was the primary decision maker in the children's names. It was like a joke where you went through each kid walking by to see who named which kid, but the joke was all the kids the mom had named. The video was titled "If you think their names are weird now, you should see what was vetoed!". oldest to youngest
Trendy (F) (middle-school aged)
Zaylee
Sunny (F)
Truly
Journey (F)
Rocky (M) (Baby)and Mom is pregnant again five weeks after the birth of the youngest Trendy looks about 12/13, old enough for social media era in her life but maybe not quite the "influencer" life, but even so, "Trendy" feels like the most influencer parent's kid's name to ever be picked... I can't take it seriously. Zaylee is too modern and, well, trendy to me. Sunny is alright but not my cup of tea. Truly is the only one I quite like of the lineup. Makes me think of Truly Scrumptious. I wonder if that was what she was named after? Journey isn't my style, I think there are better word names out there that express similar sentiments. Rocky is fine, but I favor it for a dog or a horse over a person.Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.

I love Rocky, and Rocky Joshua is a beautiful combo! Zaylee is usually just okay to me, but it’s amazing compared to the rest of these…
The ones I like best are Zaylee and Truly. Journey and Sunny are ok. To me Rocky is a dogs name and Trendy is terrible. I’ll add my picks for middle names:

Zaylee Elizabeth
Truly Sophia
Journey Nicole
Sunny Colette
I can’t pick middle names for the others because Rocky is only a nickname for a person and Trendy is just horrible.
I kind of like Zaylee and Sunny and Journey are ok but the others are terrible. I can’t imagine being named Trendy. Is Trendy a trendy name? I’ll see myself out.
I don't care what Mom thinks, Dad's ideas had to have been better than Trendy and Rocky.
Seriously, Trendy sounds like something a ten-year-old would think was cute for a hideous little lap dog that never gets house-trained and bites everyone that stands still for too long.
Lady, there's other ways to not have a period than constantly getting pregnant.
I was thinking the same thing about Trendy. I can picture yappy little dog whose owner carries her around in a pink bag, dresses her in clothes, polishes her nails, and feeds her off a China plate.
and ...Takes her into restaurants and claims she's a support animal and throws a tantrum when anyone calls BS.
Sunny Love has hippie vibes. It doesn't really say "Mormon," I kind of like it, though. I'll allow Journey Rey. The rest, thumbs down.
I got hold of their middle names!Trendy Chanelle
Zaylee Ruth
Sunny Love
Truly Éclair
Journey Rey
Rocky JoshuaTrendy is absurd, and the article I read says that Chanelle is after Coco Chanel. Ugh.I have a soft spot for Zaylee, though Zélie is better. Ruth is fine.Sunny Love… could be worse.Truly is silly, and Éclair is a pastry, no matter what its original meaning.Journey is meh. If Rey is from Star Wars it gets a free pass from me.Rocky Joshua could be worse too.
Oh to be named after a pastry... 🍰🎂🍪🍩🧁🥧
Damn! Truly was my favorite until Éclair entered the picture 😅😅😅🤣 makes me think of one of strawberry shortcakes friends.
Oh gosh yes 😂 I can picture exactly what a Truly Éclair doll would look like.
@dianatiger this is why I shouldn't be allowed to get bored...
She’s adorable.
That's adorable. And exactly how I would imagine it
She looks like one of Strawberry Shortcake’s friends.
Exactly what I was aiming for!
These people are so not Chanel.Truly Eclair just sounds like someone in Willy Wonka's universe, like one of the kids with the golden ticket who came to a bad end. Like Verruca Salt.Sunny Love sounds like a fake fruit juice. Like Sunny Delight.
