how do you pronounce the name Renée or Renee, do you say them differently? i say both like "Reh-nay" or "Rah-nay"... i know that without the accent, it is also sometimes said like "Ree-nee" or "Ren-ee." it is my boyfriend's daughter's middle name, & they pronounce it like "REE-nay", hard emphasis on the "REE." i don't mind the name, but how they pronounce it really turns me off from it. :|

Embarassing nicknames?

[gangwaygirls.livejournal.com]

This has probably been posted before, but http://www.babynamer.com has a list of "teasing nicknames" for pretty much any name you can imagine. Type in the name and then click on "Drawbacks." Here are mine:

Mina (I had a teacher in junior high that called me this all the time.)
Missing in Action (I hear it constantly. I'm used to it.)
Miami International Airport (Um, can't say I've ever heard this one.)
Mamma Mia (CONSTANTLY. It irritates me.)
Mia Tortilla
Mia Mia Sangria (???)
FellaMia Fly (Um, what?)
Miss Moo (WTF)
Mini Mia (Heard it a lot around the time Austin Powers 2 came out.)
Mee-Mee (My mom still calls me this.)

Baby names for my twins (for the millionth time)x2

[pale-september.livejournal.com]

I used to have names picked out for my twins, one being Anders Joseph, the other being Nico Thomas. But my husband had a change of heart and refuses the name Nico. Needless to say I was very sad. :(

We were thinking of Talos (Tah-los) Eldon. His initial will be T.E.D. *sigh* Eldon is a family name.

We're also liking Espen, and Joren. I know these are somewhat out there, but so are we. Opinions/advice?

God, I loved Nico. :(

Fun with names

[drunkontea.livejournal.com]

My boyfriend and I went through names and picked ones out that we both liked (it was hard and laborious). Here's the list...

Boys:
Vincent
Weaver
Logan
Willem
Theo
Aidan/Aedan (ugh, it's so popular right now... I prefer the alternate "Ae-" spelling)

Girls:
Rosaline
Maya
Channing
Jovi
Chell (pronounced "Shel")
Teagan/Tegan (I'm a little on the fence with this one)

I also liked the names Astrid and Erika for girls and Atticus for a boy, but he didn't go for those.

What do you think of this list, and which first name/middle name combinations work best, in your opinion?

Hey sorry for post number 2 tonight!

[calixbat.livejournal.com]

Just curious..

I had serious issuse with the name Linda for the longest time (I hated someone named linda..) and then I was neutral to it but just didn't think it sounded particularly nice and it sounded dated and now I love it. I blame it on Linda Perry.. although how could that make me suddenly like the sound of it (Plus ive liked her for many more years than the last couple months of like the name..)
What names have you guys despised and randomly started to like? If you know the reason, explain perhaps..

Names again

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

So the names that had more positive than negative votes from my list were:

Amelia Ruth, Colin Joseph, Nathaniel Joseph, and Rowan William.

I think the middle names killed a lot of them. I kind of just stuck them in there so that they would look more 'full'. Who knows what my future children's middle names will actually be.

So here's the list again, minus middle names, plus one name I forgot to include last time:

( What do you think about these? )

As you can see, like many, I have more trouble coming up with boys' names. Also, these are middle names I would consider, if anyone feels like making combinations:

Ruth, Rose, Autumn, Sarah, Sylvia, Helena, Elizabeth
Joseph, Michael, Lewis, Mark, Ptolemy (haha, I know), William, James

Or you can suggest your own, because people here come up with really great combinations. :D
