Baby Names-any ideas?

Post by _Seven »

I am due anytime now with a baby girl. (my 4th kid) We still do not have a name. I love unique names and have a long list but nothing has really popped out as "the one." Any great name ideas that are uncommon?
I would love your suggestions. :) I'm getting nervous that I haven't picked a name yet.

How exciting that you are almost due. :) When is your exact due date?

I love unique names as well and I gave very different names to my girls.

Have you tried all the websites like:
http://www.babynamesgarden.com/uniquebabynames.aspx
http://www.babynameworld.com/unique.asp

Good luck- it's hard to pick out names, huh?

Seven, how exciting and congratulations! I usually try to name my children unique names and it rarely works out that way. My last son I named had the number one name of 2006 for his first name and his middle name was number 2 on the list! Oops!

It is hard to pick names, it's usually down to the wire at my home. The hardest part for me is trying to find a compromise with my husband. Although I always get my way in the end. Good luck with your pregnancy and take it easy. :)

Well, heh, I'm partial to Who Knows, but it's not for everybody.

How about the name 'Seven'? Or Deuteronomy?

Seriously though, my wife liked the names Kinsey or Kennedy for our last girl. We didn't use either name, but they're fairly unique.

I think "Seven" is kind of a pretty name and it was that famous Seinfeld episode that partly inspired my screenname.

If my husband and I had had children we would have named a girl Phillipa. I love the diminutive, Pippa, and he's partial to the name as his 2nd grade British sweetheart's.
