We just found out that our firstborn is likely to be a girl! Which also means we are now seriously considering baby names. Austin and Rachel's current top choices form something of a disjoint set, so we're looking for Manifold to help out with suggestions.

The baby's last name is likely to be "When" (portmanteau of Weinberg and Chen). Rachel likes names like Ezri, Mila, and Ada; Austin likes names like Astra (Codex When), Mana, and Virtue.

Market resolves to the first name of our baby due in July will be named; N/A if the baby isn't named (eg miscarriage).

I'll present the case against Ada at Manifest, but I don't want to publicly criticize the name you might end up going with.

bought Ṁ10 AGI YES

@bohaska incredible content, I endorse this.

@benshindel also agi means baby in Korean, so, cute!

folks just to be clear ada already won

austin referred to them as that in a public communique

if you check the ownership, i memed it into existence

quibbling over the pronunciation is the correct thing at this point, but obviously only one person will control the pronunciation: ada

(what they respond to is what they'll be called)

receipts

Ada

curious about pronunciation: ay-duh or ah-duh?

@shankypanky haha Rachel likes 1) but I like 2)

@Austin eh, more that (1) is like, the typical English pronunciation of the name, so what I would use—I want her to identify with that pronunciation so she doesn't have to correct every person she meets. But I also think it's fine for her father to pronounce her name differently from everyone else

@rachel @Austin in my mind (every time I see the name) I have always pronounced it [1]

maybe I'll make a poll 🙃

@rachel if she becomes a world traveler #2 is a very common pronunciation

Anya

This name has a similar feel to both Rachel's preferences and Austin's, with a touch of the "virtue" theme. Anya is a Slavic name meaning "grace" or "favor".

-from LLM

@jack interesting, Anya also seems pretty close to Frozen's Anna

Adra

A blend of Ada and Astra

Same idea for Asda

bought Ṁ12 Gemma YES

I think Gemma is a pretty name. I think people will forget about the Google model soonish

Clarity

a very pretty name that I have ever considered using for myself

with a last name like "When" I feel like a good joke is mandatory. "Peace When?" etc. hmmm
