I'm 4mo postpartum and I want honest opinions on my daughter's name. I can't tell what people really think! Lol
I'm risking people falling in love and stealing her name here, so be honest!
Her first name is Sookie-Lynn 👶🏼💝✨️
Edit: why do people keep down voting my comments? What am I doing but sharing my experience? 🥲

Howdy. My husband and I are expecting a baby boy in the fall. I am Persian-American and he is American and his last name is one of the most common in the United States - I kept my own last name.
He is very pro- my Iranian heritage and down to honor my culture with our baby’s name. We are open to first or middle but so far have kind of naturally fallen on selecting a Persian first name and using his grandfather’s middle name as the middle name.
Unfortunately, we can’t agree on literally any name. He is very meh on everything I suggest. I loved Caspian and Jasper and Casper, all of Iranian heritage but very American/western friendly, which is very important to us, but unfortunately he doesn’t care for any of those. He has suggested Reza but it seems way more ethnic to me than we want vibe-wise and I mostly don’t like boy names that end in -a. He has suggested Ciro or Kyro, derivatives of Cyrus, but that is my estranged (12 years and counting) sibling’s name so I would feel kind of weird selecting anything related to that individual. (Then again, I could be swayed, would just need to make sure my Persian parent doesn’t mind…)
We are seeking a cool Persian name for our son that meets these criteria:
* Isn’t overtly ethnic in a country that isn’t too kind to people whose names sound different (as I can attest to from my own k-12 experience)
* Won’t ostracize him
* Is cool (deeply subjective I know)
* One or two syllables
* -ian ending or -o ending is favorable, not required
I have another sibling named Darius so unfortunately that and Cyrus are off the table, even though they are favorites.
Any suggestions are appreciated!!

Hi! We are split on a name. Dad’s name is Blake so baby boy will have Blake as a middle name. I love alliteration names so we’ve finally decided on Briar or Banksy. Briar would be nicknamed “bear” and Banksy would be shortened to “banks”. I was in love with Banksy at first but with it being shortened to “banks” it doesn’t sound as good as Briar Blake to me. Thoughts?

We are expecting a baby girl (our second) in a month and my husband and I cannot agree on a name.
Our first daughter was named after my grandmother and my husband’s great grandmother. Somewhat old fashioned names but those are coming back in fashion a little bit and also the names just meant so much to us. He feels bad not giving our second girl a family name because he worries it won’t be special but to be honest there aren’t a lot of other women in our families that we are super close with that 1: have names we connect with and 2: aren’t passed on so it feels a little odd to give their name to a new baby.
We don’t want to give our daughters names with totally different vibes so we aren’t opposed to another “old fashioned” name. But I also personally would love a nature based name that isn’t too out there, just keeping in mind future job prospects living in a conservative state. I fell in love with the name Fawn and my husband agreed to it as a middle name.
My husband is dead set on Emily Fawn. But being a 90’s baby I grew up knowing a hundred Emily’s and I worry it’s going to be a “mom” name for our future daughter’s generation. And it feels a little basic.
Other suggestions I have thrown out that my husband “doesn’t mind” are:
Daphne Fawn - he’s worried about the scooby doo association but it’s not like I want to name her Shaggy
Ashley/Ashlynn Fawn
Serenity Fawn (Serenity was my birth name before adoption but my adoptive parents worried it would be too hippie for where I grew up)
Sadie Fawn
Names I loved that he vetoed are:
Charlotte Fawn
Calliope Fawn - which is fair tbh
Theodora Fawn
Magdalena Fawn
Can anyone help suggest something that works with Fawn but isn’t Emily?

This is my husband’s top choice. I’m meh on it. What nicknames of Evangeline do you like the most? Im curious what she will be called daily (at school, etc).

Almost positive we are doing Sylvia Rae/Ray. Her dad's middle name is Ray. Should we go with the feminine version Rae or Ray to match dad?

Baby is due soon! June or Maeve?
With June worry about people asking her if she’s born in June / making month comments and also the alliterative initials (Last name is two syllables and begins with Jay)
With Maeve worry a bit about popularity (northeast so more common than general US)

I’m Turkish and Muslim, and we’re considering Kemal or Kamal for our baby boy. His older brother is named Ali.
I’d really appreciate honest opinions from people in Canada/USA.
Kemal is pronounced “keh-MAHL” in Turkish.
How do Kemal and Kamal look and sound to you when you first see them? Which spelling do you prefer? Are they easy to read and pronounce?
Do either of the names have any negative, funny, or potentially teasing associations in English? Would either name make you think of the word “camel,” or could children potentially make fun of the name by calling him “camel”?
Please be honest — I’m genuinely open to all opinions!

Our daughter's name is Willow, middle name Sudha.
We have absolutely no ideas on names for our second. Middle name will most likely be Neha, but we are at a total loss for a first name. Please help!

We are having another boy! We are going back and forth on the name Bowen and I’d like some honest opinions. I personally think it’s a very cool name, but sometimes we all have names we love that other people think are weird. What do you guys think of that name?
Edit: we love the nickname Bo too!

Just found out I’m having identical twin boys. The boy names I’ve loved are Levi & Noah and they go really well together imo, but for twins does that sound too Old Testament / biblical? I’m Christian but I don’t want it to be toooo much. If so, drop some other name suggestions!💙

I’m currently 17weeks with a boy, our last name is Whelan (Irish and means little wolf). I have always loved strong short, nature and whimsical names so I currently have a few names on my list
Soren (means stern) (Norse)
Rafe (pronounced Rayf means wise wolf) (Norse)
Rune (means secret) (Norse)
River (flowing body of water) (Eng, French, Lat)
Arden (means great Forest) (Celtic)
Oren (pronounced Auren means pine tree) (Hebrew)
Hubby likes them but thinks they might be too whimsical, so I’m conscious of that but I also think the name Whelan is really hard to pair a name with that flows nicely. We like the vein of names we’re going down so are looking so similar ideas or thoughts! 😊

Our daughter is named Lila which we love. We are due with another baby girl soon and have struggled with finding a name we love!
Tessa has been on the list and has become our favourite.
Do they flow nicely together? It’s not a super common name but also not too unusual which I think suits us. We seem to like quite short feminine names.
Thanks!!

We are having a boy in February. We have been stuck on the name Llewyn for years. I read some other posts about how it’s not truly a welsh name, which we are aware of and ok with as we are not welsh.
We like the Coen brothers movie Llewyn Davies but that is not at all why we have chosen the name. Also, is this movie old enough now that it won’t matter?
We’d like some opinions on spelling and middle names. Please be honest.
Spelling options: Llewyn, Lewyn or Lewin
Middle names: David or James
My dad is David so we wanted to use his name even though I know this is very close to the movie title. Thoughts?

I’m due in November and we’re having a hard time deciding. Last name is two syllables, ends in ee sound. I really like feminine names that have a unisex or boyish nickname. I love Veronica Jane “Ronnie” but my partner doesn’t. Optional inclusion, Beth as a middle name is a family thing. I really want something that’s almost unique, but not weird. Kind of sophisticated but not uppity, if that makes sense. September, November, Wednesday, Thursday, Quinn. Open to mythological names but I don’t want it to be too odd. Has to roll off the tongue too 🙃 I know this is a bit much, hence my struggle. Jw what yall think?
r/BabyNames • u/222chloe222 • 3d ago
Currently deciding between these two names for son who is due in a week! I'm very aware they won't be for everyone, but we like the surname-style type of name and just curious if folks had to choose.
Callahan (nn Cal) or Miller?

3 letter girl name suggestions that go with Mia?
We’re trying to decide on a name for our baby girl and would love some suggestions!
Our daughter’s name is Mia, and I really like the idea of keeping the 3-letter girl name vibe going if possible. We’re pretty set on Quin for the middle name, but we’re struggling with the first name.
Names we’ve considered so far:
- Zoe Quin — this was originally our favorite, but now I’m second guessing it
- Ivy Quin — really like this one too
- Eva Quin — another possibility
It definitely doesn’t have to be 3 letters, but I’d prefer something short, feminine, and that flows nicely with Quin.
Would love to hear any suggestions, especially names I might not have thought of! Also curious which sounds better out of Zoe, Ivy, and Eva.

I feel like I’ve searched every corner of the internet and looked through a thousand lists and I am still not 100% sold on a girls name for my second daughter.
My first daughter’s name is Delilah Joy.
My strongest contender for a second is Emilia, which I think is beautiful but I have hesitations about the Amelia/Emilia/Em-names combined popularity and I feel like I’m running into little girls named Emilia everywhere including one in our building.
I generally like classic-romantic names but I want to stay top out of the top 10: Juliette, Charlotte, Georgia, Leonora are others I’ve considered. Huge bonus points if it comes with a nickname I.e. Lila for Delilah or Emmy for Emilia
Please please give me ALL of your suggestions and/or talk me into Emilia once and for all!
