My name is Ashley. I think there were 5 in my graduating class with 2 being Ashley Nicole.lol

If id had daughters I wanted to name them amaryllis grace and brenna Reilly. My sons names are nick and will. Lol. Hubby wouldn't let me name them odd stuff.
THAT is my name too lol....it's just...AWESOME isn't it? lol I swear, every time I hear someone say "Actually" and I think they're saying my name I just twitch...

I ALMOST got named Ashley Nicole lol....came THIS CLOSE apparently!

Tell me something...have you noticed that almost every Ashley in a movie is stereotyped as a witchy sassy hoity-toity girl? It's a little disconcerting lol

I had 3 other Ashleys in my ballet class at college...it was crazy/confusing when the teacher called out corrections!

 
My name is Grace after my great grandmother, and I really like it!  It's easy to spell and say, and it's personally meaningful to me.  When I was born it wasn't popular at all - I have only ever met one or two Grace's my age... But now you hear it all the time with little girls!  I think I want to make it my daughter's middle name (if I have one)...  Right now I really like Ella for a first name.  My brother's wife is pregnant right now and I'm crossing my fingers they don't take it!  We're still about a year away from trying to conceive. 

...

Also, I went and checked... I have a tracking number but it's not updated yet!  I'm guessing it will be here Tuesday or Wednesday.  it usually comes fairly quickly!

 
We attend a graduation every year (I have a big family) and my husband and I have a game we play. Guess the name the most people have. One year we counted 18 brittneys in one graduating class.

 
Oh and that was the year we were attending my niece Britney's graduation hahaha

 
My sister picked a beautiful name for my niece (I had some input on it too) we picked Nataleigh Rose. We call her Natie (half American and Salvadorean) although you can't tell she looks just like my sis blonde hair blue eyes :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

My grandma was named Lola so it might have been a reference that she heard more of.

Also, I got a shipping notice! Super early! I usually get my box after most people since I'm in Washington.
My Grandma was also Lola. My middle daughter's name is Emily Lola after her. I love the name. I wish we had used it for her first name now.

 
Well since everyone else is sharing their name, I though I'd share mine too! Janaya pronounced [Ja-nay-uh] I like it lot because it's something different, but it's constantly getting mispronounced!! to me its pretty simple and you say it just like its spelled, but oh well. I'm used to it by now.

I also got my shipping email yesterday, and my box should arrive on the 10th!! I'm super excited and I've done really good this month about not peeking (thank you to everyone who uses spoilers!!) so I can't wait to see whats in my box :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 

 
Anyone who has cancelled and resubbed before, when you get your first box after resubbing, do you get a welcome box again, or does your subscription just resume as if you never left? Also, do they take into account all the samples you have previously received so they don't send dupes, or is there a possibility I'll get some things I've already gotten?

it's business as usual. i cashed in my points and got a three month gift sub for myself and i haven't received any dupes. if u do get something that you got before let them know, unless it's a twistband, juicy perfume, jouer tinted moisturizer or color club polish

they take the old samples into account, and no welcome box or wait.

 
I'm Amanda (but only go by Amanda at work so people take me a smidge more seriously) and my sister is Ashlee (both after soap opera characters, lol) i have a kind of country sounding middle name and a last name impossible to pronounce= always easy to tell when a telemarketer was calling, and i'm pretty sure I was the only person in the world with my name.

Now i'm married and my name sounds like a Christmas themed stripper, lol. 

My daughter's name is my g-ma and my hubby's g-ma's (both passed) middle names   (Melinda Laurie)

no clicky truck yet. 

 
My one-year sub's done after April.  Does BB send out some sort of code for repeat subs?

I emailed birchbox and the lady wrote back and told me that they automatically resubscribe you unless you click to not auto renew. They do apparently put another 110 points in your account as well.
 
My clicky truck is still sad and empty.

My name is Carys and you wouldn't believe the way people have butchered it. Caress. Carries. Kari-ess. Car-is.
 

 
My long name Antonella issabellan. Is part italian. Idk if issabellan has a meaning. Tho lol. If. I ever have a daugjter i. Would. Name her lorena laurent

 
My name is Annestine.  I was named after two of my Great-grandmothers (Anna and Earnestine).  I HATED it when I was a child, I would anticipate when my grade school teacher would call my name during attendance on the first day of class (there would usually be a pause on their part as they thought for a second how to pronounce my first and last name) and I would tell them to "just call me Anna" before they got it out.  When I asked my husband what he would want to name a kid, he said "Ransom Human-animal" so I think naming is going to be my responsibility ..
