    Liliana Sage sounds pretty to me.
    I totally agree.

    My faves are:
    Hope, Kate, Keira, Quinn and Sage. But they are all lovely names

    Almost all of those names, when I look at them I picture a baby girl to see if the name fits. TBH those "old" names are pretty when put to a baby. When I think Iris, I think of a pretty flower. Helena sounds powerfuly to me, as I think of the Greek goddess Helena or perhaps I'm confused with Helen of Troy. Ingrid, I went to school with an Ingrid, she spoke french but her family were not from France but from a french speaking country south of France. I try not to think of people when thinking of names. I think of pretty names that sound soft and loving. Hope is common but means a lot. One of my cousins has the middle name of Hope and her sister has the middle name of Grace. My aunt is very spiritual, and has two angel babies before her eldest.

    It might surprise you to know that this is actually in the forum guidelines about Netiquette here https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...uidelines.html and in particular, point 8. This came about because we actually do get posts reported for text speak. So as a moderator I find it hard to sit by when someone does a thread title and post using it. It is a condition of membership that ALL members read the guidelines before they post.

    Even so Trill, I thought it may have been a wiser move to direct this member to the Guidlines and not come up with a smart reply. You posted as a Member with your opinion and not as a Mod.

    TBH, I agree with Oshani. As a moderator, you should be more diplomatic and assertive. When you disagreed with her type of speech, you ridiculed her and did not point out the guideline.

    Oshani - I agree, this member is still very new (10 posts) and that directing her to the guidelines may have been a nicer way..

    Isab3lle, the names are nice, but i think you need to narrow the list a little and maybe you should run through and write down your first impression of each name to help you narrow it down..

    You're right, maybe it shouldn't have been said and as such I am big enough to acknowledge that and remove my post. But the fact remains that new member or not, the guidelines are not there for the sake of it and should be adhered to.

    Hereby, I would like to say sorry for not reading the froum guidelines before posting and causing quite some problem here.
    I will take note of it and will never do the same mistake again.
    Thanks for reminding, Trillian.
    I believe that you are not purposely trying to mean or what. It's ok and I understand why you said that.
    Anyway, thanks to everyone.

    Correct me if Im wrong, but I thought we got a private post if there was a problem. A warning? Probably a kinder way of doing it.
