A friend of mine just tried to suggest the name Gwendolyn to me, and misspelled it. But I like it!

What do you think???

Gwendaline, pronounced like Gwendolyn - gwenn-duh-linn.

Babies on the brain

I just found out I'm preggers! And though it is too early to tell real people, I somehow feel fine posting it to a bunch of strangers! I never said I was rational... On top of my own pregnancy, two of my good friends from high school are pregnant and my sister-in-law just announced she is pregnant. It's like the year of a million babies.

So my husband and I have our favorites, but recently we've added a new one. It's one of those names that you are just throwing around, it comes out almost as a joke. You laugh about how silly it is, but then...it starts to grow on you. It's one of those names you don't think you could really use, but you still really like it.

The name is Wakefield.

Just putting it out there. For what it's worth, the Chinese lunar calendar says I'll be having a girl. I'm sure that's completely accurate. :)

Okay, i have a dillema. My baby girl is three months old now. I named her Lorelai Faith. There are so many ways to spell it, and her dad(who is in jail) tattooed it on his arm but spelled it Loralei. I have been thinking about changing the spelling of the name, but i dont know what to do. Should i stay with that spelling since it is so original or should i change it so that it fits in?

Aright, so my boyfriend Eric and I had our baby's name picked out. We both really liked it and everything. But the other day we were talking and we think that we should think of a different first name because of the initials he'll have...BJA. We don't want him to get teased at school because of the whole BJ thing. Even though we might end up giving him a different name once he's actually born, we want to be prepared and have his name picked out.


I know I've asked this question before, but I'm going to ask again. Sorry for being repetitive. Do you any of you have any suggestions for a first name to go with the rest of his name?? _________ James Adams.

Thanks

Is the name Payton/Peyton best suited to a female or male in your opinion? 

How about Marley?

I remember back in middle school I used to get these two boys mixed up:
Garrett
Garrick                    

personally I don't like either; if I really had to pick one I'd say Garreth

Edit: Girl in one of my classes who switched out. Xilda. [jill-dah]. Went by the nickname of Jill.

love love love her name and the spelling but despised her nickname. Why would you take something so unique and turn it into something boring?

WDYT?

[Poll #1116761]

top 1000

[bohemianvegan.livejournal.com]

I was looking at the top 1000 boy and girl names of recent times. My goodness. Some of the top girl names were: Precious, Princess, Chanel, Armani, Ashanti, Shakira, Halle, Celine, Ximena, etc. The boys were: Xzavier, Zavier, Mohammed, Jesus, Zaire, Kaeden, Guy, Zander.

To be honest, I think majority of those names in the top 1000 are either too ridiculous or just too traditional. Yet few are traditional. Really, most of those top 1000 names are awful.

Another post brought up the Sweet Valley books and it made me think of a name I had read in one of them, once.

Jessamyn

It's not necessarily one that I would use, but I do think it's pretty. It's different without being disgusting. What do you think?

Name Game.
