How about a thread for baby names you liked?

I'm pretty sure there is already a thread here for that.

Oh yes. Here it is.

I just looked after a little Sophie and thought it's a cute name. I haven't heard it for a while. I also liked Lilly and Kate and Victoria and Sara. Boys names I like... Max, Jack, Sam, Timothy... I work with babies, so I see a lot of good names.

I tend to prefer more traditional names to the trendy kind. I just wouldn't want my kid to be in a class with 4 other Skylars even if it's a pretty name.

Oh, in that case I'll go with my own 2 daughters: Naomi Elizabeth and Natalie Allegra.

Like the above poster, I like traditional names best. Even though "Cindy" was a popular name when I was a kid, I don't think anyone would give a girl that name nowadays. However, names like Katherine and Samuel are timeless and can be nicknamed easily.

I loved Ashley (or Ashleigh), until my poor second cousin (whose name is Ashley) came home to her mom from kindergarten and complained that 4 other girls in class had the same name she does, out of a class of 15.

So i think the closest runner up if i chose another would be Ashton.

On the days i scrub on ENT surgeries, it's a given that we'll get a Taylor, Tyler, or Dakota. I liked Taylor lol.

I also liked Shiloh (actually common around here) , unfortunately that's now a celebrity baby name.

I also like Elizabeth, Victoria, Laura. I tend to like the traditional baby names as well.

For boys i like Nathaniel, Brandon, Matthew, Ryan.

I liked Bailey and Madison for a girl, but hubby did not, said they were too "trendy". We agreed on Leigha, a twist on the spelling of Leah. If we have another girl we have choosen Allison.

For Boys I like more of the traditional names, Andrew, Matthew, Christopher, Alexander.

I like for a boy Chance Morgan, my yet to be born grandson. He is due in Jan 07. :monkeydance:

How do you already know it's a boy? I have a friend due the first week of January and she's only 9 weeks pregnant.

Wishful and positive thinking on my part. We don't have a girl's name picked out yet.

Well, obviously I am voting for Sabrina Rose, my sweet little angel. Another name I like is Isabelle (the name of my future daughter).
