The eye remained slightly S of Jamica, but that left the entire island on the ugly side of the storm. At least the storm still has a fairly fast forward movement so hopefully will pass rather quickly vs. just sit on top of them. 🙏's up for all the folks impacted.

@mikecook8712 12 күн бұрын

I'm acquainted with individuals like Toni (a lady) and Tony (a guy), Ronnie (a guy) and Roni (a lady). I also know a JoAnna (called Jo) and a Joseph (also called Joe). Interestingly, I've observed that names like Stacy, Alex, Kim, Ashley, Jesse, and Jody, which were historically male names, are now more commonly associated with females in my experience. This highlights the importance of not making assumptions about someone's gender based on their name. Despite being quite conservative, I recognize that gender can't be inferred from a name alone. So, beyond acknowledging an intriguing coincidence, the gender associated with a name is not particularly relevant.
