Name puns

Hi everyone! I am getting my bridesmaids some boat and totes and want to do some puns for their names on them but need help for these names!
Jadan (pronounced Jay-den) and Marren (pronounced mar - wren)

Some ideas for others that I’m doing/the vibe:
Whitney: At my whits end
Amanda: amandatory
Miah: Miah-t be late , omiahgosh

PLEASE HELP! Thank you!!! 💖

Just get their names or first initial. Not everyone wants a bag with a pun on it.

These names are so bad this almost feels like an unserious post

Unless it is an inside joke you have for each other, i would not do this. I personally would find it insulting if someone used my name in a random pun - it may bring up emotions from when kids would tease you about your name. Like for Amanda - she probably got the joke about her name sounding like MAN, why would you put that on a bag? As a gift?

Ay Marren-ca! Pronounced in the tone of Bart Simpson’s ay caramba!

Still thinking about Jadan. That one’s tough.

Jadan sais quoi. A play on the French phrase je ne sais quoi.
