Baby names - just for fun
Re: Baby names - just for fun
Only the kids who tease them. It's too close for comfort for me.
Stand up for something you believe in.
Obviously that question gives me away, H and I are pretty much 100% naming the baby Kyler if it's a boy. But I saw on one of the boards (someone else is using that name for a boy too) that a girl thought it'd get pronounced like the first part of "Dylan." I think that's extreme, but it did make me think twice. There's a Husker football player named Kyler and he hasn't been called "Killer" yet so I'm hoping we're in the clear.
ETA: How are you feeling post-surgery, Mary?
I don't think it is a bad name at all, I just think kids will tease with less than ordinary names. Hell, I got teased for having the name I do because it was the same as the "mother of God" when I was in catholic school. IDK.
I'm feeling poorly, I did too much yesterday because my mom is crazy. So, now I'm really paying for it. But, hopefully I'll be able to relax a bit tonight and feel better tomorrow.
Stand up for something you believe in.
I love Charlotte!
I don't mind sharing mine, although these may be changed if we ever get to adopt.(I may try to honor their culture or keep their birth name if we like it).
I tend to like names with cute nicknames but are great stand-alone names too. I like older names that are known but not top 20.
Girls:
Natalie (Nat)
Alana (lanie)
Corinna
Clara
Lucianna (Lucy)
Boys:
Gavin
Nolan
Isaac
Joel
HAHA - I've ALWAYS wondered what your super secret names were! I LOVE them!
Especially Elizabeth with your last name. Very strong!
As for Kyler - I wouldn't pronounce it killer. But that could be because my best friend's daughter's name is Kyla...so really, to me, being a Bostonian, it's pretty much the same name, just the masculine version. haha
Thanks!
Aw, don't be sad! It just means we both have excellent taste.
