Guest guest Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 Isn't funny how names can be mispronounced? My daughter, Elyse (pronounced " A lease " ) gets called Elsie all the time. Oh, well. Colleen Mommy to Elyse, 2 w/cf Re: Names Eyelish...pretty. Dylan's name is pronounced Dill on - some people pronounce it DIE LEN....weird...

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 " " Even simple names can be botched. Take Milan. Simple, just like the city in Italy " " Hi , I read in a yellow page magazine that more than half of the people in the US can't find THEIR country on a globe, so don't assume they know a city in Italy. Italy, isn't that a quarter in New York? LOL We chose the name Fiona because it is short and pronounced equally in all common languages. Do other people find it simple? Forget it :-))!

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Hi Torsten, I'll admit we have some dimwitted people here in the US of A, but come on!!!! More than half?!!!! Just who did they poll? It wasn't me nor anyone I know! So that blows that statistic out of the water, because that would mean that every OTHER American you meet on the street wouldn't be able to locate our own county on a globe. I'm sure that was just tongue in cheek, but it is just plain ignorant. C Mommy to Mick and Alli, 3 yo twins wcf --- Torsten Krafft wrote: > " " Even simple names can be botched.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 ok here are a few... We are having a girl but when we do have a boy it will be: Isaiah Adam Gaspard my Godmother has 4 boys these are their names: Dylon Drake Sullivan Drew Cameron Dax I like Drew Cameron or Drew Hope this helps... Adam & e Gaspard RNY 04.07.03 e 370/245 Adam 394/258 EDD #1 08.31.04 Kay Independent Beauty Consultant www.marykay.com/starbound107 " That which does not kill us, makes us stronger " Re: Re: Names Hello everyone. The process of picking out names has been a challenging one for us to say the least. Each one I suggest is shot down-- but so are the ones he suggests and they are shot down by me! We are at no agreement and I have only 6 1/2 weeks to go... I think it will be down to the wire with us deciding. We know we are having a boy so many people ask about the names-- I don't even tell them the ones we have kicked around anymore as the responses are rather suprising! People do not hold back on their opinions, do they? Here are the ones my fiancee likes (soon-to-be hubby, we are getting married THIS Friday 7/9!): Kale Nielsen ( keeps calling the baby Kale now). I don't care for this one but I have to say it is growing on me but it wouldn't be my first choice. What do you all think? Honestly, I would rather hear opinions from you all and just see what you have to say... I know that in the end it is our decision but I would like some feedback now! haha Cam ? Nielsen- not Cameron just Cam and I don't like it! I think Cameron is cute but not just Cam by itself. Shay ? Nielsen- Irish boy name but sounds too feminine to me. See what I am up against? I am SO frustrated. I do have a son who is named Jake and I would love to name the new baby Jack after not only my grandfather but 's, too but he thinks it is too " average " of a name! I like Cade/Kade Nielsen, Caden, and Oliver to just name a few. What is this poor girl to do??? I just needed to vent. Have a good day everyone. Ivy Kennedy DOS 11/7/00; EDD 8/22/04--it's another boy! Big brother Jake will be 10 yrs old on 9/25/04. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 I LOVE the name Kendall! That was the name of the hospice nurse we had for my grandmother last year, and I absolutely love it. Of course, she (the nurse) was beyond wonderful to us, so that might have something to do with it. I have never heard of anyone having that name besides her. GREAT choice! C. WLS 8/28/02 EDD 12/31/04 Subject: Names I know I am not nearly as far along as a lot of you but I have thought of some names: If it's a girl I want to name her Kendall Marie ( Marie is mine and my mother's middle name ) and if it's a boy I want to name him ph. ph after my brother that passed in '98. But that is the extent of us naming them after family. What do you all think of those names? Just kind of thrown out there for now since I am only 7 weeks pregnant...Hope you all are having a good one! VBG 7/16/03 359/200/175 7 weeks pregnant with baby #1!

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 My son's name is Kieran . He is 3 years old and absolutely adorable. I'm about 19 weeks with this baby. DH and I are still figuring out names. For girls I like a, Natasha and Natalya. The middle name will definitely be Jean. For boys, I haven't really decided on anything, other than I'd like to continue the Gaelic theme. :-) We have our 20 week ultrasound on Monday. Our AFP test came back very slightly elevated, so I'm a little nervous. But the doctor did say that it was just a screening test and that only 5 out of 100 women who screened positive would have a baby with any neural tube defects. Because I'll be 35 when I deliver, I was already scheduled for the level 2 ultrasound. It's sad that 35 is considered an old fart. Anyway, I'll be happy when I can see my little one with all her parts in the right place and of the right size.
