Many teachers or school staff know that there are a few things that are pretty common when dealing with kids. A lot of times, school employees see patterns with kids and their behaviors, many times these are correlated to the kid’s names. Many kids who have the same name have some behaviors that are pretty common and similar. Truly, it happens.
One TikTok user has now created a new trend, talking about kid’s and their names.
Miss Amanda, who goes by the TikTok @theschoolofficelady, says that she likes to share a lot of her observations about working in a school setting. And, many of those have to do with kids who share the same name.

The video series has several parts.
“As many of you know I work in a school office and in all the school offices we do have this conversation where your child’s name directly correlates with their personality,” she said in her first video of the series.
She goes name-by-name, boys and girls.
She begins the series talking about Liam or any boys whose name starts with “L.” She said that boys whose names start with L are “big criers.”
“Your child cries. He cries a lot and those tears aren’t real,” she said.
She continues to mention other kids by name, too.
“Next up we have the name Jack. Jack is hyperactive. Incredibly hyperactive and crazy, every single one I have ever met,” she said.
When it came to “Isaiah,” she said that any kid named that, “is cute,” but he is also “definitely a liar.”
When it came to other kids, Amanda had so much to unpack.
Kids whose names are Mackenzie, or Kenzie, or anything of that nature tends to be very, very loud. Any kids name Blake apparently ask to show all of the skateboard tricks, all of the time. She also adds that boys named Emmitt never listen to their mothers
Many of them are pretty spot on.
Girls named “Emma” definitely have a $40 Pottery Barn lunch box, the school office staff worker said. And, if you have a Charlotte, you should “check her backpack” because she definitely has a dead bird she picked up on the way to school.
Some girl names add up with boy names.
For example, she says that “Avas” are just like “Isaiahs,” because they are both huge liars. No matter how cute and sweet they may look.
“Hazel, Ruth, Evelyn, Lilith, basically all of the old, old lady names, you need to stop correcting me child and your mum needs a nice glass of wine and a long walk in the sunshine,” she said.
As it turns out, many parents agreed that this is all “spot on.”
Many parents commented on the videos saying they, too, have kids whose names are mentioned and that they can “confirm” that this is absolutely the truth. One woman who has a daughter named Charlotte said that she, indeed, would have to check her backpack.
Others said, yup, they are those moms.
As for “Emma,” one TikTok user said she also has a daughter named Emma and that she did get her a matching Pottery Barn backpack and lunch box every year with her name on them.
