Work
My job basically consists of entering homeowners' names and addresses into a database. Today I entered the name of a woman who is apparently an adverb: Amberly. Not Amber Lee. Amberly. And I think I know what it means: "in a cutesy way, causing the bearer to eventually suffer being an adult with a stuffed animal's name", e.g. "Michaela was named amberly." Names like Caitlyn and Shyanne just don't seem right on adults. And I am not looking forward to spending my golden years in a retirement home with old ladies named Shayna, Betha and Cammie.
EtA: I forgot Britney. Brittany is okay. Like Shyanne, Britney is a cutesy misspelling of a real name.
