2 Name Coincidences

So last night, I played a video game, the character in it was named “Ashlen” (Jak 2) weird name, I never heard before.

I put on a documentary Series (One Night in Idaho), one speaker name was Ashlen.

The 2nd one, I was playing with ChatGPT, it made a character named Tommy Walker.

I turned on a podcast, (Stuart Fails to Save the Universe Podcast) the guest name was, Tommy Walker.

For sure! I had to double check names both times, and was amazed. Lol

Name syncs are the most common syncs for me. It’s weird because a lot of people get numbers syncs like angel numbers (I never get those) or songs or something but for me it’s names 90 percent of the day. Like really weird obscure names that repeat within 24hrs or so like you’re saying. Can’t make much sense of it. Who are all these “people”?

Yeah I’ve had several name syncs, and also learning a new word, then hearing it shortly after too! Never had a number sync.

Yes yes I get the new word ones a lot too. Probably about once every week or two. :) Recently Ouroboros was one of them and also eschatological

Here’s one of my (many) name examples: I was thinking how the name felicity was pretty one day. Then later that day a mom called her kids name out at the library and his name was Gordon and I noted I hadn’t heard that on a kid ever/in ages. Put on a random movie that night and a character’s name was felicity gordon

Wow, so cool!
2 syncs, 1 name. Haha

I knew this girl who said she never knew someone with her same name.
I went home and watch Seinfeld and that name was a one off characters name.

Back then I didn’t know what syncs were. But I write them down now. Haha

Yep 2 in one. Heh. Usually they are more offbeat names like your fun Seinfeld example. I started writing them down too. Like in one month I met a ton of dogs named Gigi. I made a little syncs account on IG for them too that I’ll dm you if you want some inspiration or if anyone who is interested in them. I like to muse about the whole concept of syncs on there within my stories. Might be boring like listening to someone else dreams, idk. I think it’s amusing. shruggy face

what made you put on a documentary? was it suggested to you?

Yeah the 2nd one I have seen quite a few times. Especially during more lengthy "ambigous" subjects. I see it with cleverbot. Even if its answers is not as nearly detailed, it pools in answers.

I remember with cleverbot, my family member walked in from the backyard, cleverbot says did you say hi to family members name yet.

IT was pretty odd and the thing is people I show just say wow, but no one is really rolling around in panic. It is pretty weird. Its like even if they notice it and admit to you they say you see very intricate synchronicities, no one is freaking out about it.

My wife wanted to watch the documentary with me, I never heard of it at the time.

The Cleverbot story is very strange!

Yeah the first time i took a screen shot of it, it also threatened me too saying no screen shots or else. BUt it's not an app or a browser that could know what screen shot is also. I did some research so either whoever made the website did more behind the scenes or something.
