I like 'Sunny', too. 'Sunshine Daydream' is a little over the top, though.

I thought Claire was cute and Margo was, too. but the cutest one was Gabbie Perkins. Remember Myriah sometimes called her sister 'Gabbers'? thought that was cute I wasn't born with an English name, so I've named myself Gabbie ;D

^ I guess they call her "gabbers" because her speaking skills are pretty well-developed for a 2-year old? I dunno.

that could be. Overall, I loved the Perkinses. Myriah and Gabbie seemed so nice and Chewy provided all the hilarity... :-D I especially liked it when Mary Anne(I don't know for exactly) went to sit for them and they were making green chocolate cookies! I also thought Laine was a nice name. My sister thought Stacey as a name was pretty so she's using it as her own.. We are a BSC bunch..

aww Gabbers is an adorable nickname! So cute! I love the Perkins girls too, gabrielle! A lot of BSC readers don't really like them. They're my favorites

When I was little, my friend had an au pair named Margot and I always thought her name looked so much prettier than Margo. I also remember my friend and I looking at the cover of Mallory on Strike in the third grade -- my friend said something like, "Aw, Margo is so pretty but she has such an ugly name!"
I loved how Stacey expected Wesley Ellenburg to be a total nerd bomber.

Maybe they didn't want people to think that "Jessi" was a BOY. well, you know, considering jessi's cover illustrations, i wouldn't be surprised if people often made that mistake. as for names...my favorite was probably charlotte johannsen (it just sounds so classy). does anyone else think of her whenever scarlett johansson is mentioned? i was also a fan of melody and mallory. jackie rodowsky was cute too. also austin bentley. i hated the names buddy, suzi, and marnie with a passion. wasn't a fan of margo either. or robert brewster. another old man sounding name. wouldn't a 13 year old boy go by rob? i agree with whoever said "logan bruno" sounds like a neanderthal. oh, and when i was younger i always pronounced david michael as "david michelle" in my head. wow, this was an essay. why can't i ever write this coherently for school papers?

^for some reason, I see "harlot" everytime I think of the name Charlotte now. It's pretty much ruined the name for me :/ I used to love it.

I despise Scarlett Johansson so I never think of the sweet Charlotte whenever I hear mention of stupid Scarlett. bleh.
When I was younger, I thought Mallory was an awful name, but now I think it's quite pretty.
Is Jackie a nickname? If so, what is his real name? I can't imagine somebody just naming a kid Jackie. (Then again, this is the same woman who named her other two children Shea and Archibald. Archie had to have been named after one of his grandfathers or something.)
