I was glancing through Bug's parents' baby name book the other day. They are due with a girl in March and I was curious what kind of names they were considering. I am on board with a lot of the boy names, because I can see them using more of them. The girls ones just shocked me...I will be back with my commentary later. I will say that the name they ended up using for Bug is on the list...any thoughts?

A lot of those names have really gained in popularity in the past decade. I know a few girls names Avery. I like Keaton, surprisingly. Cissy I hate and Maddie is over-used. Just my opinion!
ReplyDeleteBoy names: my nephew is named Nolan. :) Taggart?! Ah, no. Graham you hear a lot in the south. I prefer that to some of the others.
You know, once the kid is born, the name will seem cuter because of the kid. A lot of people don't seem to like our leading name, but that's tough for them. ;) I think once people meet someone they like w/ a certain name, the perspective all changes.
(like you LOVING "Sharon" now')
I don't believe either of my kids' names are on the list :-)
ReplyDeleteI'd go with quite a few of the names on the girls list for a boy's name... like Drew and Mason. But I'd rather have Peyton as a girl's name. But you know me...I thought Thane was a great name :-D I have our boy's name picked out if/when we ever have one, but I never see it on lists. COOL! i picked a good one :-D
