what do you think of the name Antigone (An-tig-gon-ie)?
i'm in LOVE with the name, and i figured Teagan would make a nice nickname.
but the thing is that i HATE the spelling. always makes me want to say "anti-gone." just by looking at it.

so my question is, do you know of any alternative ways to spell Antigone?
(WITHOUT being incredibly uneeeeek. gah.)

I know I made a post similar to this a few days back, but I was wondering about which name you PREFERRED.

Beatrix
Beatrice

Personally, I am undecided.

Beatrix is beautiful because it is less common, and we all know Beatrix Potter. I don't like it though because it could be shortened to 'Trixie'.

Beatrice is lovely, but slightly more common, and to me has a more old-dumpy-lady feel to it.

I just found out I'm having a little BOY! I'm happy about it but my boyfriend is kinda sad because he wanted his little girl, so I don't even want to discuss names with him right now, lol.

I have a two year old son named Devon Joshua and I want to find a name that sounds good with that...My boyfriend does not understand this concept for some reason.

Anyway, what names do YOU think would be good as a sibset for Devon?
Jacob and any -den (Aiden, Jayden, Hayden, etc) are the only names that I do not like.

The boyfriend does not like any boys names so its going to be hard naming this little guy.

So...Me and my bf finally got a name for our baby. After months of arguing and rejection...I finally came to terms with the name he wanted.

I originally wanted Hayden, before I found out the popularity of it...then I was determined to find a cute unique name that I liked..but then I realized...all the names I picked out that were unique, were all the names that everyone ELSE was picking out, because they as well want a unique name..

So while everyones going after the different-unique-crazy-less heard of names...they are not realizing that everyone else is picknig out the same names..

So I have a feeling that "traditional" names are not going to be as popular this year.

So the name is Michael Scott Reid

I think it sounds nice...

I was oringinally against it because Michael was suchhhh a popular name, but I have a feelings its popularity is going to die down for the next couple years since everyone wants "unique" names. Plus Michael is my boyfriends name, and Scott is my fathers name. So it has meaning. I've grown to love it.

So, what do you all think?

Two middle names?

[prettyandpink06.livejournal.com]

Im tossing around the idea of two middle names, because I just can't decide on one, and I'm curious as to how it would affect my baby as far as standardized tests and other paperwork goes. I know that there is usually one spot for a middle initial, and I would assume that the first middle name would be in that spot. But if he didnt like that middle name could he use the other instead? Any feedback would be great, btw.

A sibset that my roommate knows:

Reese (8/m)
Riley (5/f)

Sidenote: Riley has a rare disease and had a scare with pneumonia tonight so if anyone who believes in some kind of higher power could pray for her and the family that would be great.

Is there a website (other than babynames.com) to keep track of your favorite names?

my older brothers wife is due in mid march and they have yet to pick out a name for the baby because their other children have not so common names and they want one that fits. they already have two boys named renner and ramsey and a girl named tressa. they are having a girl and are open to any suggestions right now other wise the poor girl isnt going to have a name. my brother likes claire, but everyone else thinks that it is way too traditional to fit in with their other children. so do any of you have any suggestions?

Twins

A co-worker of mine came in for her check today and brought her 18-month-old twins...

The boy is D'Quincy and the girl is Destiny.


I highly dislike both, lol. Cutest kids ever, though.
