I'm all of 5 weeks pregnant (baby #1, yay!) and my sister is into...unique names. Which can be fun, but some of them are extremely odd! We did, however, come up with two tonight that we agreed on and thought were unique without being yewneeq.

Girl: Emerald Rose
Boy: Edward Roan

She'd end up being Emma, theoretically, and we'd probably call him by his middle name. I'm undecided on the boy's name, but the girl's I think is fabulous! Opinions? Am I being weird without realizing it?

If they mated.

Girls name I recently heard: Emerson Mae

Yuck- an Emma and Madison hybrid?!

I do not like it at all. Emerson is a name I wouldn't even use for a son, let alone a little girl.

Thank you all for your comments on Izak!  Since I'm having twins I'm tossing another name out for opinions.

I just noticed that the actress who plays Bridget in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is named Blake. I know a lot of people don't like the boys' names for girls trend, and that's fine. I usually just decide based on the individual name. For those who do like boys' names on girls, what do you think about Blake? That's one I haven't come across before.

Dilemma?

Let me give you a little backstory to prep you for whats to come,..

My mother married into a family and I was adopted by her husband, I love him, he's my dad and we all treat it that way. My dad has a brother who is NOT married but has been dating someone for pry 7-8 years. His girlfriend has kids from a prev. marriage and those kids have a father of their own, and it is not treated as though my dad's brother is her father in anyway. This girlfriend/her kids are not rly treated as part of the family since they aren't married or anything.

So this daughter who is not related to this family, is having a daughter and naming her Cora Joanne. Thats a fine name, however I think it odd that she has chosen to name her daughter after her mom's boyfriends grandma and mother?

Am I nuts or what?

Significance of Initials???

[blush.livejournal.com]

How significant do the final initials play in your role of settling on a name? We were able to find out the gender today (pink team, yay!) so we can FINALLY get around to picking out a definite name. Like most girls, I'd had a few name sets picked out for ages. However my most favorite name set, paired with my married last name: AOL. It's not really a large deal, but it bugs me enough to question things. Should I just get over it or am I slightly validated?

Monet is a family surname, which is a possible middle name. Which I think goes nicely with some of these names, but not others.. Does any one have any other middle name ideas?

Someone at my school had a baby.

His name?

Crew Colon.

I am not kidding. I wish I were - and I wish it were a typo.

I'm a new member of this community, and I'm due in April with baby number 3 (its a boy this time!). Other babies are Jerrica Brooke (11 months old), and Melody Grace (a little over 2 years old). Anyways, I have a dilemna picking a middle name for this baby, so I'm posting a poll regarding it. I hope polls are allowed.
