Names Survey

Credit for this swap goes to @ButterflyDreams ; she deleted her profile quite awhile ago so I couldn't officially ask her to copy the idea (which I thought looked like fun), but I still wanted to give her credit! (Here's the girls version and the boys version of her original swap. I've changed most of the names.)

When I was a kid, one of my favorite books was called "Names! Names! Names!" I've always had kind of an odd fascination with names. (Maybe it's partly why I enjoy genealogy so much.) If you share this odd fascination with names -- or if you're looking for a name for your baby, or your pet -- or if you just want to participate in a mindless survey -- and you happen to meet the swap requirements (see below), then you're welcome to participate in this swap!

INSTRUCTIONS:

-Please pick your favorite name of the 2 given for each letter of the alphabet. Please do this for all three lists (boy, girl, and unisex names). See below for the lists.

-If you can't stand either of the names for any letter, or if there's a name you really love that isn't on the list -- you're welcome to comment as such to your partner (though it's not required), but you still must pick one name per letter from each list.

-Send your answers to both partners by the due date. You may send via Swap-bot messaging or email, or you may share a blog link; any of these methods is fine as long as you follow the rest of the swap instructions. (If you choose to email your partners, you might want to let them know on Swap-bot that you've sent the email and tell them to check their inbox, in case your swap is filtered to their "junk mail" folder.)

-Rate your partners with a 5 if they follow the above instructions. Hearts are always optional.

OTHER SWAP REQUIREMENTS:

-Newbies are welcome only with a well filled out profile.

-Rated swappers must have a minimum 4.97 rating to participate. No unexplained/unresolved 1's, and no excessive 3's.

-If you must send late for whatever reason, inform your partners before the swap is due or you risk being rated a 3. (This is an electronic swap, so there's really no reason to send late barring an emergency that keeps you offline. And because it's electronic, postmarks and lost mail won't be an issue. Remember, communication is key!)

-I reserve the right to ban as I see fit.

-I will, of course, angel if you're flaked on after you rate your partner with a 1. All flakers will be reported as well as banned from any future swaps that I host.
