Ngl, I find some of these Hella cute. But I'm also someone who loves creative/unique names (to a point). I don't like offensive/obvious sponsorship/stupid joke names (the infamous "Ladasha" spelled "La-A" or "Absidy" spelled "ABCDE")

But I think Rocklyn and Brexleigh are adorable names for little girls! I'd probably spell it Brexley though.

Then again, when I was growing up I liked the name "Huxley' as a gender-neutral name for a future child, so, do with that what you will

Rocklyn sounds too much like Brooklyn (which some people also name their kids unfortunately) and Brexley sounds like Brexit.

[-] Cheesus@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Rocklin is also a popular neighborhood in Oakland

What’s wrong with the name Brooklyn?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

For one thing, it means "broken land."

Huh. I didn't know Brooklyn meant that. 5 year old me was definitely a fan of naming my Barbies "Brook", so I've suffered a lack of taste since the beginning it seems 😂

[-] turmacar@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

/"marshland", which would give a whole new relevance to getting "swampy".

Oof were making fun of you. Sorry.

[-] AquaTofana@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Haha bruh that's aight. I'm actually a treasure trove of traits to make fun of!

Fortunately I'm child-free so no human ever has to bear the weight of my creative naming conventions...only my D&D/RP/Video Game characters have to suffer.

ok so uh, how the fuck do you pronounce the one with the X though? breckslee, or braelee.

Rocklyn is in a similar vein imo. Although in that case, they're both concoctions of what are individually bad names. Brayden, and haley. Rebecca, and whatever the fuck else terrible name you wanna pick.
