I'm expecting a boy. We've chosen the name Judah Rayner, nn Jude.
You say: That's cute
You think: Yuck!
You suggest: What about Jonah Rayner?
I'm expecting a girl. I think we're going to name her Delaney Corisande, nn Dela.
You say: Delaney? That's pretty trendy now, and it's a surname.
You think: Ew
You suggest: What about Daniella Corisande?
I'm having a boy. We're really religious, and have no compunction about making our beliefs public, so we're naming our son Amos Obadiah.
You say: That's...unusual.
You think: And should stay that way.
You suggest: He might get teased with such an unusual and obviously Biblical name. What about Aaron Obadiah?
I'm having a girl, and I love frilly, girly names. We're thinking of using Felicity Annis.
You say: That's interesting
You think: Blech
You suggest: What about Felicity Annelise? Annis reminds me of anise seeds.
I don't know whether it's a boy or girl, so I'm going with something unisex. The baby's name, regardless of sex, will be Avery Belrose. Belrose is an old family surname.
You say: Why don't you just pick out a name for each? There's no reason to give your daughter a boy name or your son a girl name.
You think: Ew, ew, ew.
You suggest: What about Avery Belrose for a boy and Ava Belrose for a girl?
I'm expecting twin girls. I'm so excited, b/c I love theme-y names. They're going to be Lily Ruth and Iris Mae.
You say: That might make them feel like they're a themed set instead of actual people.
You think: I love both, just not for twins.
You suggest: What about Lilian or Liliana Ruth, and you could call her Lily, but it would be more subtle?
I'm expecting twin boys. I love alliterated names for twins, so my boys are going to be Ezra Kyle and Eben Keith.
You say: That might get confusing, like with monogrammed items. Both would have the same initials!
You think: Gag me
You suggest: Why not have one with the initials EK and the other with the initials KE?
I'm adopting b/g twins. Since twin names always sound the same, I'm naming the girl Calla Eden and the boy Calvin Pierce.
You say: That would get so confusing, and teachers and friends might not even make the effort to tell them apart.
You think: So cutesy...
You suggest: Why not have the middle names sound similar, if you must?
You say: That's cute
You think: Yuck!
You suggest: What about Jonah Rayner?
