1 AnswerOther - Environment8 years agoOne Name That Matches These Three?
For a story.
There are four sisters (three aren't important in the story but they still need names). Ingrid is the oldest, and she is a big part of this story. She has three younger sisters. Two I've already picked names for. Opal is the second oldest and third youngest. After Opal comes Estafania. I need a name for the last little girl. Right now I'm calling her Beth, but that's temporary. I'd like a name that is well in the same category as Ingrid, Opal, and Estafania.
*Please don't make rude comments about the names I've already chosen or you will not get Best Answer for sure.

19 AnswersBaby Names8 years agoGood Name That Goes Well With Fitzhugh? (with Bonus Question)?
(For a story)
She is sometimes very bossy and is not sensitive at all. She cares mostly about her own feelings but not others. She has brown hair.
Story plot (if this helps)
(let's call the girl Ann for now)
When Ann walks home from school each day she passes the supermarket, where an elderly woman sits in front of. Each day the woman waves as Ann walks by, but she never looks Ann in the eye. One day, Ann feels curious about that, so she asks the elderly lady, whose name is Yolanda, why she does it. Yolanda says it's because her eyes are ice blue and her skin is chocolate brown. From that day forward, Ann continues to chat with Yolanda daily. One day Yolanda decides to tell Ann a secret. It is that her family was very rich in the olden days, and had treasure buried somewhere. Yolanda did not want to tell Ann the location OR give her the map that day, so she decided she would tell Ann the location the next day. But then Yolanda decides to change her mind and she goes to Ann's house to tell her right then and there. However, muggers come along, hearing Yolanda muttering about her family's treasure. They want the treasure, but Yolanda won't tell them the location. They beat her to death and come looking for the next in line who knew Yolanda's secret. They track Ann down and give her the timeline of 5 days to tell them where to find the treasure. Of course, Ann doesn't know. Ann goes to a lady who supposedly can bring you to Heaven. Ann wants to go to Heaven so she can ask Yolanda where the treasure is so that the muggers can have it and Ann can be safe. The lady takes Ann to Heaven, but forgets to tell Ann how to come back to Earth. Ann gets the info she needs from Yolanda (it's fake info that will lead the muggers to the wrong destination and they will find fake treasure) but can't find the way home. She consults another magical lady who says that she cannot bring Ann back, but she can teleport her to The Bridge. The Bridge is the gateway between Heaven and Earth. It is extremely long. Longer than the circumference of the Earth. The lady is able to bring Ann to the halfway point of The Bridge but not any further. Ann begins trekking to the end, where she can find the Earth Portal and go home. Along the way she meets some friends and picks up some company who come along.
If it helps, the friends' names that go with Ann are:
Ingrid (Giant Ladybug)
Cynthia (Infant Giant Ladybug)
Lance (Giant Ladybug)
Posy (Coyote)
Meteorite & Asteroid (Siamese hyena twins)

1 AnswerBaby Names8 years agoCan anyone think of girl names that have both a W and a T?
Ten points!
The name has to be a girl name, of course. It doesn't have to necessarily begin with T or W, but that's fine too. Please make sure the name has both letters in it. Please don't make up any names. Also, if one of the names you suggest is unusual, please include the meaning beside it.
So far, I've got:
Winter
Tawna
Happy Holidays!
14 AnswersBaby Names8 years agoHow to make a Chinese finger trap?
Well, I really want to make one of these things and when I Google it, it DOES show me how to do it, except it says to 'braid it'. I know it means biaxial braiding, but I can't figure out how to do THAT because even when I Google it, I get nothing helpful. Can anyone please help me? I would prefer words and pictures rather than videos, thank you. And to make it clear one more time, I would just find it helpful if somebody could explain to me how to make a Chinese finger trap (or Chinese handcuffs), with a thorough explanation on the biaxial braiding section. Thank you!
1 AnswerOther - Visual Arts8 years agoAndelyn or Andelynne?
Alternate spellings welcomed.
This would be a girl's name. It's going to belong to a tomboy that is still sensitive about her appearance. She would have dark chestnut hair and perky brown eyes.
