Picking names for a baby

[GoneWithTheWindows]

Hey All,

Seeing as my last thread was so helpful, wanted to ask another question

How did you and your partner decide on a name for your little ones?

My SO and I are not agreeing names at all I know it is very early to even look at names as we don't even know the sex as yet, I am excited though!

TIA!

The first rule of picking baby names:

1. Make sure the baby is yours.

What would you call the baby for short? Maki?

Would expect no less from you. You honestly seem like the closet type.

I keep coming up with Boy's names. Couple I thought were not over used are Blake and Xander. Was shot down.

Well... They say 1 in four of your office colleagues are gay. I'm seriously beginning to think its Robert. He dresses so neatly. His hair is always impeccable. And omg he has the most gorgeous blue eyes EVER!!

I would shoot you if I was your kid.

Lol that bad huh?

I just want to avoid something common

Just let the wife choose. That's what I did with our firstborn. The second one we fought about and eventually I budged as long as she had my second-name.

First time I heard the name and I love it. I've just picked names for my many children that may or may not come. I have a few other favourite names but nothing too extreme. Boy - Madeon/Damian. Girl - Addison/Khalistra/Calista (Jessica was an option before one entered the picture)

Oh god. It's because of not wanting to be common that my sister and cousins have the weirdest names for their kids. My cousin's son born earlier this month is Jaehquine. Isn't that the Faceless Man from ASOIAF?

Just breaking your balls

Whether a name is common or not isn't that important, right? That line of thinking is how you end with celebrity kid names

In all honesty, just give the kid something functional that won't get him \ her teased too much.

No no, I am not naming my kid something that bad

Will be a normal respectable name, just not one heard everyday.
