[Chase]

I keep thinking today is Monday...

let's all be glad it's not!

 

[Claire Yeon]

I just watched an episode of Queer Eye on Netflix and two friends of the person they were making over were named Carmen and Chase. This brings me joy. ))

 

[Chase]

@Claire Yeon, You must be seriously observant. I haven't come across either names IRL outside the context of Carmen Sandiego.

(I've seen Chase a couple times, but not Carmen)

 

[Claire Yeon]

I have a cousin named Carmen; I'm one of those people where when I hear a name that a family member has it sticks out. There was a kid named Chase in a class I used to teach, and I'm sure I've met others, but he's the only one I can think of off the top of my head.))

so I live in an area where the name carmen and the name chase are both incredibly common and at one point there was one carmen and one chase in my class. one time we were called in line order in groups of two, so carmen and I were both called. the teacher blanked for a moment because my name is incredibly similar to miranda and teach was like "... Carmen Miranda. I just realized that."

Ive also had two chases in my class at the same time

I have an Aunt Carmen. There's also Carmen Miranda, Carmen from The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and a Wilson Phillips song called Goodbye Carmen. I had a classmate in middle school named Chase, but other than him and Chase Devineaux, never heard of it as a given name.
