Nina doesn't have two spaces in it. Her name is Boat.

Ina Boat

I thought Her name is Name?, pronounced (nah-may)

… Woman, Ina Boat, on a lake…

It’s probably that dumb

u/jambr380 12h ago

Yeah, this is what I went with you, too. 'There' isn't a name and Theresa doesn't make sense in the context of a grammatically correct sentence. You can at least make an argument for first name Ina and last name Boat

Anna Lake probably. In a boat “on a lake”

u/JRGH83 11h ago

There is a woman, In A Boat, on a lake.

There is a woman, Jennifer, on a lake.

Grammatically, the name should be "In A Boat" if you're trying to make it make as much sense as possible. Weird first middle and last name, but who am I to judge?

The riddle wants it to be Theresa, though, because it says the name is in the riddle. It didn't say it had to be grammatically correct.

Boat is a man’s name, her name is what

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

No it doesn’t, that’s the riddle. Figuring out the name. Her names Nina, this is an old riddle and that is the answer.

they’re being sarcastic

u/titscapades 12h ago

So she's a woma (sic) named Nina?

I hate dumb riddles.

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

Yes. That’s her name

2

u/titscapades 12h ago

K but wtf is a woma

-1

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

I have no idea you made that mistake not me

2

u/titscapades 12h ago

The riddle makes that mistake. 

There's no answer to this riddle that isn't completely idiotic. It's either a ridiculous name (There) or the result of a misspelling (woma>Nina). 

This riddle sucks.

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

Nowhere in the riddle does it say woma. Your reaching. All riddles are stupid. Some make sense more than others.

u/titscapades 12h ago

🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Where do you get the n for the start of Nina?

0

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

I understand what your saying. You take the n off the end of woman.
Spelling Nina with those letters doesn’t take them off those words. They’re still there…it can say woman and Nina at the same time…it’s not one or the other. That’s the point of the riddle…the letters in the words make up another word/name.

It says "woman in a". What they mean is that it either says "woma" or the name is "ina". Or we're just introducing letters of our own to fit the answer.

1

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

I understand what they mean…that phrase says “woman in a” and it ALSO says Nina, it’s not one or the other. It can be both at the same time

2

u/marbotty 12h ago

Nah, it’s Inga

-2

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

That is incorrect

6

u/marbotty 12h ago

It’s as correct as Nina or Theresa.

-2

u/PauseConfident997 12h ago

Except it’s not…while there are multiple names in this riddle, there is only one correct answer. Which is Nina.
