Like is it ok to name your child that or is it one of those things you don't do, like Innocence or Brayden?

Most names that are also words tend to have a cringey vibe

Hmm reminds me too much of Mel Gibson. I mean he's fine but he's to manly to be reminding me of my daughter

Finding them toys and stuffed animals would be pretty damn easy. My Melody would be a perfect fit for them.

One of my mother's friends named their daughter, first and middle name, Amanda Lin.
My mom was big into the folk music scene, and so, those are the friends she rolled with.

I wonder what ever Amanda's at now?

Is Melody a CRINGE name for a child?

  • When she sounds like a cat in a blender
  • When her character is anything BUT harmony
  • When her presence invokes panic rather than rhythm


It's right up there with "Joy" and "Hunter". Sometimes the names don't seem like they really fit the specific person at first glance. And some of these people become adults with names that are the antithesis of their daily behavior. Parental naming conventions don't always appear to make sense for long term, i get it.

However, sometimes parents name their kids for personally unique instances that happened early in life. For example "Melody" could refer to not the child's actual character, but instead of how she fell sleep listening to certain music.

Melody is a fine name. "Mel" is a nice short version of the name too.

Generally if you are going to go with shit like "Melody" you want short versions of the name that don't sound as proper or dumb as the full name and I think it that is the case here.
