What was your parents other choices for names for you? Maybe even the boy choice!

Mine were:

Samantha Grace
Chloe
Lucille "Lucy"
Olivia
Christopher (boy)

Just list what you might have been named!

[Remy Hadley]

I think Kaylin Rose was in choice for me, but my mother liked my current name better and apparently chose it when she was sixteen and all lol. And dad knew a bunch of girls with my name as their middle name and decided he liked it as my middle [which I kinda like my middle name.. not very common I don't think]. Kinda sad though, I like Kaylin Rose better! XD

And Kyle Richard was the other choice for me Which would have been funny, cause I have a bff named Kyle! Hehe!

I not sure what other options my parents had for girl names but I do know that if I had been a boy I would have been Brett/Rhett Ashley I'm so glad I'm a girl. I honestly can not stand the name Rhett. And I think Mama said that it would have been Rhett.

[Meghan<3]

If I were a boy, I would have been named either Scott or Kyle. I'm glad I'm a girl; neither of those names fit me!

[The Future Mrs B]

Girl Names:
Cheyenne Souix (dad's pick)
Shy Anne (dad's pick)
Samantha Shay (mom's pick)
Hannah Paige (mom's pick)

None of which are like my actual name Erin Elizabeth.

My brother was almost Robert Glen/Franklin (dad's pick) or Fritz -? (mom's pick) once again, that sound nothing like Cole Alexander.

[Starlight]

If I was a boy I would have been named Damien which tbh I strongly dislike that name lol...

I was also almost named Erin [Which I like better then Ashleigh :/] ..

My parents were clueless on a girls name because they thought I was going to be a boy.
If I were a boy my name would've been Jordan Lee.
My name is Marissa Ruth.

[brittany111]

[Mika Casey]

If I was a boy, I might have still been named Raven.
But more likely, I would have been named Jordan Kirby.

[Lazuli]

My mom had the names Marissa or Taylor for a girl and Christopher if I was a boy. My cousin ended up being Christopher.

[Katie-Nana]

If I were a boy my mom really wanted to name me Daniel. (IDK on middle name). She was very upset when my dad's brother named his son Daniel just a few months before I was born.

My mom also wanted to name me Lark Ann (Lark after her Dad) and call me "Lark Ann." My dad didn't like it so they settled on Katherine Ann "Katie" (Katherine after my Dad's older sister).

[Athena_P]

Girls names:
Artemis Grace
Leto Angelina
Athena Cadence

Boys names:

Ares Joseph

[kelsie__]

I was going to me named Megan Leigh Anne. Anne was my my mamaw's middle name. But, since my brother's name started with a K, my name had to, too. And, my cousin was born on January 19 the same year as me and she was named Megan Leigh Anne...

[ImaginationGirl]

I think my parents were pretty settled on my name (Catelin Elizabeth), although they both really wanted a Joy, which is my youngest sister's name.
If I had been a boy, I think they would have gone with Grant or Isaac.

[Kayleigh Michelle]

Kaylee Elaine.

[-TebowTime-]

Boys:
Jason
Jeffery
Benjamin
Robert Louis III

Girls:
Jaesin (the only name they had picked for me )

[NavyWife24]

My mother apparently had my name picked out since she was 16 or 17, which is Lauren Kathrine. But my dad wanted to name me Rebecca Ivy or Leona Violet but thankfully my mom refused. Had I been a boy my name would have Jonathan Michael, which is my younger brothers name.

[BabyNameRater]

My dad wanted to name me Lillian Pearl but my mom didn't like it, so they settled for Lauren Daniellie. If I had been a boy they said I would have been named Paul Wayne. Either one would have been fine with me
