Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

((((((-t)))))
{{{{-t}}}} I'm so very sorry.
Oh, -t, I'm so sorry. There are never any words that seem right at a time like this.
Do we know any lawyers who might be willing to send a nice threatening e-mail to a couple of websites for not very much money?
No doubt many of the Buffistae legal brains can write good threatening email. I did hear a rumor that Perkins was an out of work slacker at the moment.
-t, I am so sorry. {{{-t}}}
I'm putting in a vote for a name like Ella, Ellen, Eleanor, Elise, Elaine, Eliza, Elizabeth or Eloise, because I just think it gives the girl more options later on, if she wants to run for president or be a Supreme Court judge.
I'm a big, big fan of formal names on birth certificates for this very reason. I figure even if the kid never aspires to the halls of power, the formal name looks more dignified on college applications, resumes, etc.
How about Elena? It's high on my list of names I like but can't persuade DH to ever consider.
T, so sorry. My thoughts are with you.
DH and I both like the name Ellie for our baby. I think her birth certificate needs to say something more formal (although we would call her Ellie) but he thinks it's fine the way it is. I'm curious what you all think about the need for a person, particularly a woman, to have a "formal" name.
My full name is Kathy and I like it. Over the years, I've had people ask me what my "real" name is or even gone ahead and changed my name to Katherine or Kathleen because they figured Kathy just couldn't be the full thing. I must admit, it gets annoying, but at the same time, it's fun to watch people's faces when you correct them.
At the same time, I've had friends who have longer names but go by nicknames and they have to correct a lot of people to get to the name they prefer.
