Baby Names
How did you pick out the name to give your baby?
Was the name picked out before you got pregnant, after you found out you were pregnant, after you found out the baby's gender or after the baby was born? EDD #1 October 18, 2003...my husband and I had narrowed our list to about 3 names each before we ever conceived our child. After the first u/s we tried narrowing it even more, but then went to family and friends for "votes" and opinions. We had decided on baby names by the time of the second u/s which was at about 18 weeks. Our baby girl is going to be Akira Violet. However, if the u/s tech is wrong and we end up with a boy, his name is going to be Adam Benjamin. Since both our names begin with the letter "A" we wanted our baby's name to also. We chose middle names based on grandparents' first names. Baby girl will have my Mom's Mom's first name as her middle name. Baby boy will have my husband's Mom's Dad's first name as his middle name. The way we came up with Akira...it is the most common MALE name in Japan (according to my DH) and he wanted it for a boy...EVERYONE we know thought it was a nice name, but thought it to be "a girl's name" so we decided to use it for our daughter. |
