If you had a baby as a teenager
what do you think you would have named it?
I always think it's funny to look back at the names I liked. Some of them are not so bad, some of them are woof/ wtf.
Dehko, we know your answer is Jem.

Re: If you had a baby as a teenager
So I'll go ahead and answer my own question...
Prepare your motion sickness bags. My kid names for my 10th grade child development class:
Jenna Brittany
and
Jonathan Drake
WTF. Apparently I wanted future porn stars and rappers.
God, this is embarassing to admit.
I was set on the name Blissful Ariadne. Ick. I would've called her Bliss, which isn't terrible, but not good.

In my child growth and development class freshman year we had to carry eggs around for a week, and I am just remembering this.... I actually picked twins! There was a basket with boy, girl, twins, etc.. I was the only one in the class with two! I remember they were actually boy girl twins and I named them Niklas (after my favorite hockey player at the time) and I can't remember the girls name. Also thinking back to that time we had twin girls in the pre-school class the school ran, and their names were Kelsey and Hannah. Kinda funny that I ended up with a twin named Hannah and that I had twin eggs back in HS!
But for a girl I have no clue what I would have named her!

Our crazy, wonderful life

I named my "baby think-it-over" doll from 11th grade Elizabeth Kathleen. Not bad. Kathleen was my mom's name and will still be the middle name if I ever have a girl.
I babysat a little boy in 9th grade and his name was Tyler Justin. I loved it. I was pretty hooked on the name Tyler for a while.
I bet if I could remember my favorites from junior high, they'd be way worse. haha
Bahaha!
We also did the "egg" experiment and I named my egg Emma Ruth. I got made fun of so much. Shortly thereafter, Emma was the name of the baby on Friends and it became super popular. No longer interested.
I was big on Alexis, Lexi, etc type names.
I want to say I named my "egg baby" Zoe back in the day, but I can't say that for sure. I wish I could remember 100%.
I can't think of any boy names that were floating in my head as a teenager.
