Is it like beauty... all in the eye (or rather ear) of the beholder?
Or are there some absolute rules behind what makes a good name?
We talk alot about names having a nice flow... but is that really the gold standard?
How do you grade a baby name? Are there 4 C's like there are for diamonds?
Can't think of what makes a good name, try responding to the post about what makes a bad name
