I'm still reading this, but wanted to share.

I am having this baby boy on Aug 6. Dad and I love Alexander Scott but our last name is Smith. Will the initals be a huge problem? We don't want him to be teased.

That's OK. Kids are pretty uncreative when it comes to teasing. They'll never eventually spot that one.
 
I am having a baby naming delimma myself. I am working on a girl name. I really want something original. The family middle name is Mercedes so at least that is handled( I got used to the name when I met his family, the women are strong and passionate) it means virgin mary and is latin.

Yeah, but do you have a last name picked out?

The name I really like and haven't told my husband yet is Aemezolina Mercedes. I love the huge name, but I think I would call her Mollie for short. It is an Indian name that I have changed a bit. Versions of it are also African and Latin. As far as I could find it has a rout that means, tower or strenght. I also like Isadora, but have much more passion for the first name. I would love help.

Well, the first step is admitting you need help. Good for you.

Have these people grasped yet that a kid's not really named after something if their creativity-starved parents go and screw around with the spelling? Um....no.



if i had a little girl i would name her Catatonia Calliope. catatonia meaning catatonic or in a coma and calliope meaning beautiful voice. i know its a tad odd but i like it!

See it means she has a beautiful voice. With no brain activity. And drools and needs a catheter. And is played at circuses!
 
I know I'm having more fun reading this than anything else today, but can you blame me?... <- tiv

love the Lord, am a LDS woman, and would like to name my baby baby Jesus.

Wait, she wants to call him "Baby Jesus"? How will that work after he's 33?

My husband says this is ridiculous because we are not latino and he does not even go to church anymore. I looked and it is a popular name in the US so it must be that others like me are out there spreading His love. His full name would be "Jesus Joseph Dewey". Can any one tell me if when you are at the hospital can you refuse to let your husband have a say in what the birth certificate says? I 18 years old and am a first time mom.

Issue 1: Jesus! (Praise the Lord!) Joseph! (Hallelujah!) Dewey. (.....um.....He's a duck, right?)

Issue 2: Have you ever heard anything so romantic, and yet so filled with Our Heavenly Father's purest love alighting from heaven to his children upon the earth as an 18 year old Mormon girl wanting to have her husband barred from the hospital where she's just given birth so she can name their child Jesus. Joseph. Dewey. Amen.
 
my wife & i decided to name our daughter MARA JADE after the mother in Star Wars. if it's a boy well name him ANIKEN MICHEAL. we are star wars fanatics. do you think we went too far?

First off, and I had to look all this up, the mother of Aniken Skywalker is named Shmee. Now there's a name. Mara Jade is a character from the many geek book sequels who thusly is described by the official Star Wars Web page:

She was once known as the Emperor's Hand -- a highly skilled assassin and operative who could hear Emperor Palpatine's bidding from across the galaxy. Trained since childhood and honed into a weapon, Mara learned self-sufficiency, piloting, marksmanship and talents in the Force while serving her dark master.

This charmer, after many fascinating adventures in many silly named places and after many attempts to kill Luke Skywalker, ends up marrying him. Then together they go on fascinating adventures to silly named places.

Reading this fulfills your entire yearly geek info quota.

Next up, the Web site says the correct spelling is Anakin, but in any spelling it's a stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid name, and unless the kid hones the ability to strangle people with his mind and sound like James Earl Jones, his life will be a nightmare of unimaginable proportions.

Same reason people have 'JOIN THE DARK SIDE!' bumper stickers, or giant versions of the One Ring inscription (in Black Speech even) emblazoned on the back windows of their SUV's. People... for lack of a better term... ARE FUCKING DUMB.
 
Note: This is NOT Tiv:

Sadly this is a true story. A young (very young) girl had a baby in the hospital where a friend of mine works as a nurse. The nurse asked the young girl for the baby's name for the birth certificate. The girl replied that the baby's name would be (pronounced) Ah-shol-ee. The nurse wasn't sure how to spell it so of course she asked the young mom to spell it for her. A-S-S-H-O-L-E. Asholey is how she's saying it but that's how she wanted it spelled. My friend turned to this young girl's mom, showed her the paper and said "this is how your daughter wants to spell the baby's name." The mom said it was fine. They would not change their mind. Apparently there is a little girl living in Connecticut named Asshole.

This has all the hallmarks of an urban legend, but since "Asshole" for "Ah-shol-ee" is tame compared to some of the other spellings, I'm keeping it in.

Update! Reader Melissa points out that while Asshole is probably an urban legend, "ah-sho-lay" is pretty close to a real name: Sholeh ("sho-lay") is a Middle Eastern name, from the Farsi word for flame. And, in my opinion, it's also really pretty. If, of course, you have some sort of connection with the Middle East and aren't adopting the "random word" naming technique.

Daniela is another name I would consider, and is more normal on this side of the world :P

our wedding bands have ...and a day inscribed on the insides which really raised eyebrows in the German jeweller's shop where we had it done...
