[CLOSED] "Name my daughter" Giveaway
on: July 03, 2015, 05:12:15 PM
"Name my daughter" Giveaway

In the spirit of giving and of this sunny-christmasy-multitooly holiday I am organizing a small giveaway.
A lovable new member of the female kind will be inaugurating my brood (probably shall be spawning around end of August start of September) and seeing as we haven't settled on a name, I was thinking you guys might give me some suggestions, have some fun and give some shinies away.

The rules: Everybody who wants to join, just says a main name suggestion - that's it
(you can say more suggestions, but the first name will be the one that will be drawn). You can still suggest a name even if you don't want to play, just mention it.
Ex: Mary - but Marry and Meri would be nice too. 
I will draw a number on the third Sunday in July.

How to win: You can suggest a name already said, but the first to say will get the proper number, the second will have a +1 added to that name, a third a +2 etc.
Ex: First person saying Mary gets 6279, Second person saying Mary gets 6280, Third person gets 6281
If two people get names with same number, same rules apply:
Ex: First person saying Mary gets 6279, Second person says Nasy which is also 6279 will receive 6280.
I will draw a random number in the end, and the one closest is the winner, If there are two at the same distance, the higher one wins:
Ex: I choose 1000 and we have a 999 and a 1001. 1001 will win.
I will use http://www.csgnetwork.com/phonenumcvtrev.html for creating the numbers and https://www.random.org/ for choosing the winner.
The winner must post photos of these... definately  ;)
Sorry if it looks complicated, but it will be fun.. I promise  ;) You just select the names.

Note 1: This is open to all members over 18 years old, with at least 100 posts by the time I draw this.
Note 2: Feel free to put any names you see fit, I'll take your suggestions under consideration but I'm not crazy enough to name my daughter based on a dice roll. If it were up to you muppets she'd end up being called Leatherwoman or Kirkyia or Shoptoadina or something...

The prize: A Suprise. You wanted a crazy GAW... here it is. Some hints:

A bunch of toys from Santa MTO
With little helpers singing jolly Ni Hao.
Not high in price but neither poopiecox
Not old and used, but fresh and in the box
Not manly, rugged, tacticool,'
But nice for girls, class men and sheeple friendly too,
One that will help you cut your way
Another lights each night like day
One on the wings of doves will be your mockingjay
Another shall erase all that you say
One that will keep the chemistry alive
Last one might even save your life.

Name her Nikoleta  ::) Also, then her sanity will be questionable, so it's entirely your responsibility  :facepalm:



Anyway, that's probably the best thing that'll happen to you & her mom, so  :salute:  :tu: And thanks for the chance :D

Lol... amazingly enough Nicoleta was in my five top picks but her mom wanted something more exotic  ::)

And I'm reasonably sure her sanity will be questionable as I know her parentage  :facepalm:

Actually Sabina (close enough  :P ) was in my 5 top picks as well, but her mom didn't like it either... might have something to do with the fact Sabina was the name of my ex-girlfriend?  :whistle:

You know, I should ask some folks in my family.

They're great at coming up with exotic names.

For instance, I thought my name was Whyou until I turned 7. Whenever they talked to me, it was always:

"Whyou, didn't I told you to leave that alone?"

"Whyou, take that cat out of the pressure cooker!"

"Whyou, stop eating your homework!"

 :whistle:

I don't care what name you choose, but please, for everyone's sake (including your daughter-to-be) use the regular spelling.  I find "unconventional" spelling of a normal name to be really annoying, and the unfortunate recipient is condemned to spelling their name out letter by letter for the rest of their life (or until they crack up and change it to something else through sheer exasperation).
