Share Your Kids Names
Okay, so you’ve made the monumental step of deciding to bring a new life into your family and finally have that precious little one on the way. Congrats! Time to celebrate! You take your vitamins, meet with your care provider, and ready yourself for this exciting chapter in life.
Next up on your list: Baby names!
You may already have a few unique baby name contenders in mind on a trusty baby name list. If you’re super lucky, your partner does too and you share a few names in common to work with.
But if the pendulum swings the other way, you may find yourself with no baby names that seem to fit your growing bump. Worse, maybe your partner’s taste in baby names is the polar opposite of yours. Maybe your favorite name was gobbled up recently by a friend or family member.
In these cases, you’re suddenly faced with a baby name conundrum.
Choosing the right baby name is a journey
So many factors weigh in when you’re hunting for a cute baby girl name or unique baby boy name.
Whether you have a tricky surname to work with or want to honor a family name in a new way, you can easily find yourself overwhelmed by the decision.
- Will your chosen baby name fit a squirming toddler and professional adult alike?
- Will you always love it? Or find it too trendy as time goes on?
- Is it possible for a baby name to be too cute?
- Does the baby name meaning fit what you want for your child?
There’s a lot riding on the decision, and it’s perfectly natural to feel a bit apprehensive about settling on a name. After all, baby names aren’t merely monikers or letters on a page.
Baby names tell a story
They elicit feelings, thoughts, and have an unspoken history.
Names have connotations and meaning, deepening their appeal for some and worsening them for others. They grow with our little ones, walking alongside them at their biggest moments like graduation, marriage, and beyond.
It’s perfectly normal to want that one name that makes your heart skip a beat.
When choosing a name, it’s important to discuss your style and expectations.
- Do you want to stick to your origins or select something with exotic flair?
- Do you enjoy classic baby names or are do you love bold choices?
- Are you looking to the past for influence or are you ready to take on a modern style?
- Do you want your child to meet others that share their name or do you prefer more uncommon baby names?
You also need to consider any pre-existing factors like your surname or a pre-selected middle name. Does a potential name work with either? You don’t want to accidentally set your heart on Mickey and suddenly realize it’s a no-go with your surname of Mouse. It may seem silly, but it does happen.
Choosing the right baby boy name or baby girl name is a huge decision for you and your partner. You want to both feel represented in the process and, of course, have fun with it. This is the happiest time of your life, and you need to always keep that front and center.
Don’t sweat the small stuff or put too much pressure on yourself. Take your time if you need to, and don’t commit to a baby name that your heart doesn’t love.
Don’t be afraid to step outside your comfort zone. You just may find the perfect name for your little one in a place you’d never expect.
