How about a thread for baby names you liked?

Published

What are some of the names you've heard pts. name their babies that you liked?

(I'll add my own later, i need to check on the spelling of two of them)

I love the names Gideon, Carter, Micah, Paige and Madeleine. I really love the name Milo, too, but it's kind of turned into a pet's name over the years. Mabyn and Siobahn are also really pretty. I really love classic names but ones that aren't too popular at the moment.

For a girl, I love Savannah Lynn. I wanted to name my daughter that but my husband thought it was too southern. For a boy, I love Chase Russell and Gage Anthony. We named our son Chase Russell. We named our daughter Jessica Lynn.

:jester:

Glad to see it! My daughter is named Ivory Raine and despite NUMEROUS family protests, Ivory is now 15, loves her name and says it makes her feel like a princess!

My son is Ethan Thomas. He was supposed to be an Evan, but I had him in England and when my 2 midwives heard what his name was to be, they both said "You can't name that sweet baby Evan! That is the name of fat hairy Welshman!" I was speechless to say the least but the memory was ingrained-True story!-no offense to ANYONE!!:imbar

For many many years I have been in love with Eylysh (Eye-lish) for a girls name. Not sure if that is how it is supposed to be spelled, I heard it and never saw the spelling of it. If I ever have a little girl that's what I want her first name to be.

For boys name I find many that I like, but haven't found one I am in love with...yet. ;) Some of the ones I like are Cherokee, Sawyer, Tucker, Josiah and Traven are just some.

My best friend since the 4th grade had a little girl and gave her the name Khelsee Dawn. 8yrs ago when she was pregnant with her first child she told me that if it was a girl she would give her my name (Dawn), but she ended up having 2 boys. Then last year when she had her daughter, even after all these years, she kept her word and gave her my name. I thought that was the nicest thing ever, it's so cool I think!

My name is Leilani (lay-lonnie) Elaine. I'm 25 years old and still not sure if I like it or not...lol. I have been told it is a pretty name by a lot of different people, so I thought that I'd throw it out there.

Personally I like both different and traditional names. The names I have picked out so far are:

Girls: Aleia (uh-lay-uh), Hazel, Victoria--so you can nickname her Tori,Cheyenne, and a name my friend recently gave her daughter: Aurelia..All of them would have to have the middle name of Elaine (a family tradition)

Boys: Austin Michael, Gavin and Ethan

This is a very common name here in Ireland. Its is spelled Eilish (eye-leesh) which is the Irish for Elizabeth or Ailish (a-leesh) which is the Irish for Alice...

I know a girl named Candace Allison, and I thought that was really pretty. If I ever have a girl, I will name her Cali (don't have the middle name yet), and if I ever have a boy, I will name him Xavier Seth.

I like the names Emily, Charmagne, Rochelle and Nyah (read "y" as letter "i")!

I´d include Abigail and Natasha in the list as well.

For boys, Jordan, Dylon, Michael and James. I like Brandon too.

Why is it that we have so few nice, original names for boys?
