Margaret is the only name I've ever heard that uses the NN Maggie. I'm a Megan and I've never had anyone call me Maggie before but I have heard stories.
Gabrielle is beautiful! I love Gabrielle Rose. Classic and sweet. I also love Gabrielle Victoria, Gabrielle Christina, Gabrielle Mae, Gabrielle Jane, Gabrielle Katherine, Gabrielle Francesca, Gabrielle Elizabeth, Gabrielle Cecilia, Gabrielle Bridget, Gabrielle Margaret, Gabrielle Claire/Clara, Gabrielle Maeve, and Gabrielle Fiona.
I was wondering if any of you had considered using some of the older, more vintage nicknames for classic names even if they don't necessarily sound like the original. For example: Margaret nn Daisy Mary nn Molly or Polly Sarah nn Sally or Sadie Charlotte nn Lottie I think several of these are adorable but I'm curious to see what y'all think.
Re: Twin Names to go with Amelia canarygirl member December 2014 Mary Louise Vera Louise Nora Louise Diana Louise Margaret Louise I think I love Amelia and Nora!
Anna is the most beautiful, IMO. Claire is my second choice. I dislike Molly. Unless you name her Margaret or something so she can have a more formal name for her resume.
I just got back from Key West and kept the street map so I could post the women's names of different streets. Here they are: Julia Virginia Amelia Emma Petronia Angela Catherine Louisa Margaret Alberta Eliza Olivia Elizabeth Rose There were only two men's named streets (but many last names, like Flager, for Henry Flager): William George Report ...
Both are family names for us. Other Mary names I've known and liked include: Mary Elizabeth (called Mary Beth, Mary Lib, or Mary Liza) Mary Winstead (Mary Win) Mary Stuart Mary Katherine (Mary Kate) Mary Brent Mary Ellis Mary Margaret Mary Hayden Mary Mitchell I personally really like the combo of Mary with a family surname. Very Southern.
Here are some that I do love. Elizabeth Catherine Caitlin Juliet Julie Marie Caroline Audrey Rachel Jillian Julianne Felicity Valerie Paige Violet Charlotte Lucy Melanie Mallory Leanne Anne Naomi Abigail Helen Bethany Natalie Heidi Lillian Emily Louise Grace Claire Hope Brooke Faith Holly Noelle Camille Molly Hailey Christine Alice Margaret ...
Josephine is very pretty, and I love the NN Josie. What about Margaret/Marguerite (Maggie) or Cecilia (Cece)?
I'm Margaret (nn Maggie), but next time I move or start a new job, I would consider going by either my legal name or a different nickname (Meg, Margot). Has anyone else decided to go by a different name?
Other suggestions: Margaret (plenty of cute nicknames here: Meg, Margot, Maggie, Greta, etc.) Aurelia Jane Matilda (nn could be Tillie) As for boys, I love the name Theodore - and love the nn Theo! Other classic but uncommon boy names: Francis Eli Leland Oliver (pretty common now, though) August (nn Gus?)
DD's name is Lily Margaret (margaret is OH's mums name) Names I like: Girls Cora Ava Bethany Dakota MN would be Marie.

Open to suggestions thou ...
Reply jaymicans member August 2013 I would chose Margo because it looks fresh and easier to pronounce it like Marg-o vs (Margot) Margaret Reply
How would you explain JavaScript closures to someone with a knowledge of the concepts they consist of (for example functions, variables and the like), but does not understand closures themselves? ...
I asked a question about currying and closures were mentioned. What is a closure? How does it relate to currying?
I frequently choose to use closures in the Strategy Pattern when the strategy is modified by data at run-time. In a language that allows anonymous block definition -- e.g., Ruby, C# -- closures can be used to implement (what amount to) novel new control structures. The lack of anonymous blocks is among the limitations of closures in Python.
But the callback function in the setTimeout is also a closure; it might be considered "a practical use" since you could access some other local variables from the callback. When I was learning about closures, realising this was useful to me - that closures are everywhere, not just in arcade JavaScript patterns.
3 Closures fit pretty well into an OO world. As an example, consider C# 3.0: It has closures and many other functional aspects, but is still a very object-oriented language. In my experience, the functional aspects of C# tend to stay within the implementation of class members, and not so much as part of the public API my objects end up exposing.
Lambdas and closures are each a subset of all functions, but there is only an intersection between lambdas and closures, where the non-intersecting part of closures would be named functions that are closures and non-intersecting lamdas are self-contained functions with fully-bound variables.
What do the closures capture exactly? Closures in Python use lexical scoping: they remember the name and scope of the closed-over variable where it is created. However, they are still late binding: the name is looked up when the code in the closure is used, not when the closure is created. Since all the functions in your example are created in the same scope and use the same variable name ...
With closures the vars referenced are maintained even after the outer function is done or 'closed' if that helps you remember the point. Even with closures, the life cycle of local vars in a function with no inner funcs that reference its locals works the same as it would in a closure-less version.
I was listening to Crockford's talk on JavaScript closures and am convinced of the benefit of information hiding, but I do not have a firm understanding of when to use callback functions. It is mo...
