[Opinions] I have no Idea to name my cousin’s 3rd kid
My cousin picked me to name her child. I have no idea what to name them. If its a girl I thought about Anabel for the first name and Ray for the middle. For a Boy though I have no idea I need help.

Ray is a completely ugly middle name on a girl. It's a 60 year old mechanic's name
no, you don't need help ...Your cousin needs help if she's handed over the job of naming her third baby to a kid cousin.
Yeah I can't just think of a scenario where a woman would just hand over the responsibility of naming her child, even if she wasn't particularly interested in names
My grandma did because she didn’t care, but she gave the responsibility to the father and let him pick whatever he wanted for both their daughters. He must not have cared much either since he just said the first thing that popped into his head when asked.
The husband being an exception of course. I've known plenty of women that had their husband pick the baby name. I'm talking about the scenario where a random cousin, uncle, random none-immediate relative picks the baby name. That is significantly less common.
I'm 26 years old
sure you are, honey ..And I'm Queen Camilla.
Who are you to sit up there and tell me how old I am I know my age I was born in 1998 their for im 26!!!

Thanks, Rachel is a nice name but I like it spelled “Rachael”. The names from the boy list I like are Ellis, Jude and maybe Branden.
I agree with Kerilyntaryn21 I prefer Annabel to Anabel and I dislike Rae and Ray for a girl.Can you give us the first names of the other children to give us an idea of your cousins style?
Right now she has 2 boysBoydCadeI haven't thought of any other middle names for a girl other than Rey. I thought “Anabel Ray” sounded really good together, plus I like the “Anabel” spelling.

I prefer Annabel spelling, nice name i don't really like Ray for a girl, is it a family name, others more feminine Raelene, RaewynWhat are the sibling names boy Anthony Raymond?
I can't think of nice names for a boy I like. I don't really like the name Anthony, Raymond is a nice name but I want to keep my options open
