Keeps showing me the same 6 names repeatedly
It was good at first and I like that you can link with your partner to choose names and match up. For the past few weeks the app keeps proposing the same 6 names repeatedly even though I say no every time. And I mean over and over like 5 times within 10-15 min. Also the choices it gives me now are pretty out there as far as names go. Maybe because I’ve been through most of the more common ones already, I’m not certainShow less1983bubbles
Started off good went down hill quickly
When I first started using this app I really liked it and got a lot of good suggestions. Pretty soon though it started crashing often and repeating the same names even though I would thumbs them down. Then it got to be ridiculous suggesting names that no sane person would think of using. I wish there was a way to attach a picture because I’m being 100% honest when I say that one of the name suggestions it gave me was “penis”. That was the last straw and I haven’t used it since.Show lesskc716904
AMAZING
This app is SUPER helpful. If is easy, fun and functional. It is super easy and FREE! It gives you a variety of names and their meanings. It is also very convenient with the eas6 to swipe flash cards. I also love how you can see what names your partner likes too. My only complaint would be that some names don’t have meanings on the cards. Though overall, it is a GREAT game, especially if yo7 need to find a baby name 😉😉. So I highly recommend you get it!Show lessDarkhorse6969
Love but needs a fix
Love this app when it’s working. It will show me a few names and then tells me “trouble loading, tap to retry” over and over until I give up. It doesn’t say it needs to be updated or anything so I’m not sure why it’s not working. I hope it gets fixed because I’ve tried to replace with different apps and I can’t find anything like it.Show lessVC_x0x0
Starts out great but declines
After you get through so many names, it just shows the same name but with worse spelling of it. Also, after almost every swipe now, it says trouble loading and I have to click and hope it shows me a name. It did give my husband and I some ideas at first but it’s not worth it now to look for any new name ideas.Show lesssaraheliza63
Not the best
I love the fact that it provides the first name with your last name so you can see how it sounds and it has a lot of names to go through. The only issue I have with the app is that when you’re going through the names it keeps popping up as “unavailable” like every few names where you have to refresh it. It’s pretty annoying and sometimes doesn’t even work after refreshing.Show lessholly2478
Stops working a lot.. Also, need more filters
Love the idea, but it keeps telling me there’s an error and freezing between each name suggestion. I have to close out the app and re-open, and then it works for a while before doing the same thing again. Annoying!
Also, there should be more filters for the names that pop up... for example, certain backgrounds/ethnicities, certain popularity (for that matter, I’d love if they listed the popularity ranking of each name), etc.Show lessLisa Danielle
Great app
This app has been really helpful in choosing a name for our baby! I do wish it had some additional features, like a place to add notes to names saved on your favorites list, such as meaning (the meaning isn’t always listed in the app), or comments such as “would make a good middle name.” It would also be nice if there was a way to save name combinations to pair first and middle names together. I have several names on my favorite list that I only like as either a first or a middle name, and some of them I only like as a middle name with a particular first name. All in all it’s a great app though! If the added those features I would give it 5 stars.Show lesskjmcwu
App quits constantly
This app is great in concept because it allows you to create a common list with your partner, it I have two major complaints. 1) There are like 20 of the same names, but with different spellings so you have to swipe away every version of that name. For example if you don’t like the name Madalyn you will also have to swipe away Madeleine, Madelyn, Madeline etc. 2) This app quits after every 5 names. It just says “lost connection” no matter if it’s from my data plan or WiFi. It’s not just me because I’ve read other reviews saying the same thing. Super annoying.Show lessAgradybw
Wouldn’t download again!
I liked the idea of the app but it’s not as good as I thought it would be. If you decline a name it will suggest the same name with different spelling over and over again.
My other biggest complaint, if you download the app, they automatically sign you up for all kinds of spam emails and they email several times a day. Every day.
If someone told me those two things prior to downloading, I would have skipped the download.Show lessMama 818
