Re: Naming Baby...... Opinions please

[Guest guest]

I do have to admit...I was never a fan of Elton as it reminded me of

Elton , and I wasn't going to put a baby through that...but now

it seems to have taken on a different meaning...probably because of

the emotional attachment. But thanks for your input!

-

> personally I like the Georgia name...but I'm not big on Elton or

for kids these days. BUT..this is only MY opinion. Is there a

way you could take a part of his first or middle name and transform

it into something more suited for a child? Just wondering. But

ultimitaly it's something you have to like and you think your child

will like growing up being called.

I am very partial to Georgia...My Dad is and Dave's middle

name is as well...We have always had that near the top of our

girl list - a sweet, not often heard name. For us, it would probably

be Georgia (Dave's deceased sis is )...

I think Elton is beautiful too...

Of course, if Jr would stop hiding behind his/her umbilical cord, we

would know for sure! lol..

Good luck with the names,

Hugs,

I like Elton wesley a lot. I really liked Avery for a girls name

because it is unique so I still lean more to that name - What about

Avery Georgia? Either way you will still be honoring him. - Diane

i really like the name georgia for a girls name to call her george for short.

[Guest guest]

The names are fine and I wouldn't have a problem with either of them, but I

would encourage you to wait a while before making a decision like this. You

will want to make sure that they're names you'd actually want your kid

growing up with, regardless of how wonderful your FIL was. I'm actually

speaking as someone who named both her daughters after beloved grandmothers,

so I'm obviously not against it! Just be sure it's not a decision based on

the emotion you're presently feeling.

Naming Baby...... Opinions please

We are almost 1/2 way through and had difficultly picking out a boy's

name but had already decided on a girls...Avery . But this

last week, my FIL past away quiet unexpectedly and we're thinking it

would be nice to honor him by naming the baby after him. His name was

Elton. Now DH nor I are not interested in naming the baby

if it's a boy, but I wanted opinions on the name Elton Wesley

for a boy and Georgia Kathleen for a girl...what do you think?

I LOVE Avery , i think that is a nice name for your baby girl. I say

name what you like for your baby no matter what others think. I myself am

naming my new baby after my brother too but am using his name as the middle name

only. I was not too crazy about it as a first name so chose a first name I

really liked and then added the middle. Like Avery Georgia but you will get

alot of mixed opinions about names nowadays so choose what you and hubby like

There is always tte and Georganne for girls names. These were the names

of twin girls that I went to school with and I always thought the names were

unique and pretty, the girls were nice too so that was a plus. As far as Elton,

my hubby and I kinda ran into a similar problem. We wanted to honor our

grandmothers by using their names to name Hannah. Well my gram's name was Helen

and I didn't exactly want that for Hannah's name so we used Glenn's Jewish

tradition and just picked a name with the same first letter to honor my gram.

Maybe this can be done for the " E " name, there are tons of nice boy " E " names

out there.

Naming Baby...... Opinions please

We are almost 1/2 way through and had difficultly picking out a boy's

name but had already decided on a girls...Avery . But this

last week, my FIL past away quiet unexpectedly and we're thinking it

would be nice to honor him by naming the baby after him. His name was

Elton. Now DH nor I are not interested in naming the baby

if it's a boy, but I wanted opinions on the name Elton Wesley

for a boy and Georgia Kathleen for a girl...what do you think?
