Urgh! NO! Think about these names and do they honestly suit a adult? Can you see a lawyer been named that? A doctor? A vet? etc
 
Laura

People said the same thing of Aiden/Cayden/Jaden/etc as well as all the Kayleighs and Brynlees. Some of these children will wind up as a lawyer or a doctor or a vet. The name itself has nothing to do with a child's potential unless it is something offensive/humiliating or otherwise detrimental to a child's well-being. It has to do with the child, the child's environment. Bhutterfli Reignbo is detrimental, not Dayton.
Is a child named Aiden, who's parents help him with homework, have him participate in sports and make sure he's growing up well really as bad off as the child named Luke who's parents leave him to his own devices or not give him the support he needs? The name has nothing to do with it.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and a wonderful New Years! 

I've spent the past couple of days looking at baby girl's name in depth. 

What really has been sparking my interest is how lovely it sounds with the boys and how right at home it feels to say.

Coincidentally, the first baby born on New Years in our county was named this and the paper put the heading as "Hey There, _______". I couldn't help but think of how precious and soft it sounded. It may have a bad rep but what name doesn't? 

 

 

If you haven't guessed what the name is yet, due to the uber popular song, then here you go!

 

 

Delilah Kate

 

 

 

As for the middle name you ask? Kate is after Craig's grandmother, Katherine. Some double brownie points because Kate Spade is one of my favorite designers. So we kind of hit two birds with one stone in this stunning combo for our little girl. 

While it may not match the pattern of a short first name and long middle name, we know that this is THE perfect name for her. 

 

We can't wait to meet you Delilah!   

The BNG community has helped so many people find the perfect name(s)!

Happy Baby Naming!

This is inspired by Puppylover12397's CAFs and Addison's If You Were a Royal CAF, as well as some historical CAFs from Nameberry. This will follow 100 years of your family from 1830-1930, through the Victorian Era, the Edwardian Era, World War I, and the years before World War II. Each part will be 10 years of your family, and you'll roll each year for each couple to see what happens.

 

First, roll for the title of your starting couple:

1. Viscount & Viscountess (The Honourable)

2. Duke & Duchess (Lord/Lady)

3. King & Queen (Crown Prince)(Prince/Princess)

4. Baron & Baroness (The Honourable)

5. Marquess & Marchioness (Lord/Lady)

6. Earl & Countess (Lord) (The Honourable)

 

Roll for their ages in 1830:

1. 18

2. 19

3. 20

4. 21

5. 22

6. 23

 

Choose their first name and two middle names from this namebank:

Albert, Adoniram, Andrew, Bertram, Benjamin, Carlisle, Clifford, Douglas, Ebenezer, Eleazar, Enoch, Floyd, Francis, Frederick, Gabriel, Gerald, Guy, Harold, Henry, Howard, Isaac, John, James, Jeremy, Joseph, Joshua, Jude, Leopold, Leonard, Llewellyn, Magnus, Melvin, Mortimer, Maurice, Mordecai, Moses, Nehemiah, Norbert, Orson, Oswald, Oscar, Percival, Phillip, Phineas, Raphael, Raymond, Robert, Roger, Richard, Samuel, Simon, Theodore, Ulysses, Victor, Vincent, William, Zebedee

 

Abigail, Ada, Adell, Agnes, Agatha, Barbara, Beryl, Caroline, Cecelia, Clementine, Comfort, Deborah, Dorothy, Dorcas, Elinor, Elizabeth, Emmeline, Ethel, Frances, Freda, Georgiana, Harriet, Hepsibah, Imelda, Ivy, Irene, Jane, Jemima, Jennifer, Lavinia, Lillian, Lorena, Mabel, Margaret, Mary, Maude, Minerva, Myrtle, Nancy, Naomi, Obedience, Olive, Patience, Pearl, Prudence, Rebecca, Rosalind, Rosemary, Sarah, Silvia, Sophronia, Temperance, Theodosia, Wilhelmina, Veda, Zelene, Zilpah

 

Choose their surname from this namebank:

Smith, Johnson, Williams, Jones, Brown, Hayes, Diaz, Griffin, Russell, Alexander, Morris, Carter, Henderson, Robinson, Hill

 

Your founding couple were married in 1829, and are now beginning their life together at the beginning of 1830. Each year roll once to see if your couple has a child or not. The titles of your children are in brackets next to the titles of your couple. If there are two sets of brackets, the first title is for the eldest son only.

Normally I look at the statistics to get a better idea of how popular a name is.  If a name is #243 in popularity, that doesn't really give you an idea of how popular it is.  But if that name (Fernando in 2012) was used on 0.0733% of total male births that year.  That means that there is 1 Fernando in 1,364 male births for 2012.  Not too popular in my opinion.  Really, the percentage tells you more about the name than the ranking, since male names verse female names are very different...

 

#100 in 2012 (Ryder - 1 in 532) and (Annabelle - 1 in 635)

#50 in 2012 (Tyler - 1 in 263)  and (Ashley - 1 in 411)

#10 in 2012 (Aiden - 1 in 136) and (Elizabeth - 1 in 200) 

 

And of course names with multiple spellings would be even more popular.  If there were a particular name that you liked, you could look up the % for each spelling and add them together to get a better idea of how popular the name is. 

I love Autumn, but James really gets me on a girl. It's not feminine or pretty, it's a handsome, strong BOYS name. I just can't stand it on a girl.

I'm sorry, weren't you having twins named Gracelyn and Garrison?

Ben & I have agreed on our top boy and girl name for if/when we decide to have a baby....

Theodore Lark Alfred -or- Leona Evermay

"Teddy" -or- "Lennie"

Leona Evermay is in honor of Ben's deceased grandmother, Leona Mae.

Lark Alfred is my grandfather's full name.

I personally LOVE names with the same theme and the nature theme is my favorite! Rose & Daisy is a perfect set! There are many, many themes avaliable for your babies.
What's your oldest child name? What type of names do you like?

Other suggestions:
- Names with the same ending
- Names with the same meaning (be careful if they are variations/have the same origin)
- Names with antonym meanings (ex: Melanie "dark" and Clara "bright")
- Anagrams (ex: Alice and Celia)
- Names with the same number of letters
- Family names
- Etc.


The most important is deciding on two names you absolutely love and adore!

Good Luck!

 

Thoughts on Cecily Primrose? It's been taking over my mind at the moment

 

 

Cecily Primrose- I like it.. It has a funky hipster theme to it.. vibrant and yet cute.

Other names that have the same kinda feel like Cecily Primrose i think are..

Wisteria

Pixie

Fern/Fearne

PoseyI

zara

There is nothing wrong with coming from a big family, or that much with having children close in age - what is wrong is two people so young and who are both unemployed having multiple kids and doing it for the reasons wrong reasons. Even more so when it is clear that they're popping out more babies for ratings and to keep their tv show. What happened to them wanting to adopt?

 

It also isn't actually that healthy to have kids so close in age. Either way, I'm allowed to share my opinion and frankly, the whole family is toxic. They don't give their children the chance to be children, don't let their daughters get education past high school and covered up their son's crimes endangering all of their daughters. That is the shame. It's a toxic culture breeding more toxic, cult like culture.

The palace would have reported it by now as with twins her morning sickness and bump would be a lot more obvious and with her history of morning sickness, I think they would be extra cautious with twins, considering how careful they were with Charlotte. 

 

IMO, I really have only seen one place claim this (at least here in the western us) and they're very not reliable. 

 

Joel Robert Abrams & Cara Frances Ann [Jameis] Abrams welcomed their son

Archer Montgomery Jack Abrams

9lbs 3oz

July 30th

Big Brothers are Theron Peter Frost Abrams and Justice David Wren Abrams.

That'd be like Alicia Keys naming her baby Car.. Car Keys. That's a horrible thing to do to a child if you ask me. North West is a direction, not a sweet little baby, if you ask me.

We've decided to go with Easton Alexander!

Thank you ladies for the input!


Now, let's just see if we can keep it this time. Ha!

This is kind of pointless..... BabyNameRater has been doing this for forever and everyone always goes to her. What was the point of starting this topic? Seems a little rude to me, copying someone else.
