What ISN'T a name...

I'm completely in rant mode today, and I think I might be in the process of driving my coworkers stark raving mad.

You know what drives me nuts, though?

When parents name their daughters cutsie boy names, like Charli and Bobbie (always with the incessantly annoying 'i' or the even more infuriating 'ie'). It's a nickname, PEOPLE!

Charli/Charlie/Charley and the ilk are a shortened version of Charlene and Bobbie is a cute shortened moniker of Roberta, to the best of my knowledge, but neither should be a name themselves!

Ok.. hopping off my soapbox now..
