Baby Names

For Fun--Boards running slow tonight

How old were you when you first started picking out baby names and what were they?

Me: I was 14 and the girls name was Riley or NevaehIck! (i had heard it from my best friends cousin and thought it was so beautiful, now i cant stand the sight of it! haha) The boys name was Colby.

9 years later and those names are definately not on my list anymore.

Share!

  • 12ish I decided I would name my son Austin(my maiden name).  I had always planned this.  DH wouldn't go for it, so it is ds's middle name instead.

    Around the same time I fell in love with the Kaylen, Caitlyn, Kayla,  Kaley type names.   I thought that's what I would do for a girl.  They're not on my list now.  

  • I was probably around 12.  Cynthia Louise was the name.  I was going to name her after my new fav cousin whom had just married into the family.  She was cool.  Hate the name 30 years later! LOL  Yes, I am really that old. Whisper

  • I was somewhere in the age of 12-14.

    Some of the names I had wanted were:

     Happiness Joi (must've been my hippie phase!)

    Austin (After my G-pa)

    Victoria Elizabeth (I had also wanted to spell Victoria like: Viktorija)

    I had at one point alot of Irish names picked out too: Teagan and such.

     

  • Senior year of high school I was in Human Growth & Development class (basically birth through the first year of life).  We had to carry egg "babies" for a week.  Mine was named Hope Elizabeth.  Elizabeth is still on my name list but not Hope.
  • I was like 13 or 14. I had loved the names Lucas and Elena. Also, Aliyah, Jason, Madelyn, Kylia, Annabella, and a few others. I still love Lucas and Elena (hence, my kids names) but the others, not so much.

    Probably in high school. I wanted two girls - Anna after my great grandmother, and Emma because my mom wanted to name me Emma but my dad said no. Neither is being considered at this time.
  • Ugh! I was 13 or 14 and just starting the rebellious/gothic thing...I only had girls names picked out for some reason (maybe I wanted my name to be one of these):

    Starr (Ick!)

    M'Layne (WTF?!)

    Bryar (Embarrassed)

    and...

     

     

     

     

    wait for it...

     

     

     

     

     

    Siouxzy (pronounced Susie -- like the Sioux Native American tribe). Confused

    All I can say is WOW Ick!

    Lordy, I am glad you grew out of that phase! I would have felt pretty bad for poor Siouxzy. Good name, bad spelling! (even if it is after a tribe! That shouldn't be a person's name!)


  • Probably when I was about 16

    No Joke..

    Skyleigh Persephone was my number one favorite name.  I was really into the Greek Gods.

  • I never really picked out boy names when I was younger.  But when I was about 16, I loved Olivia(still do) and Corinne.  Corinne was from that movie Big Girls Don't Cry, They Get Even.  I think that was it.
  • Probably around 14. My faves were Arianna, Kayden (haha), and Dahlia.  They are not on my list now...they're not even my style.
  • Always... I loved picking out names for my Barbie families! I used to love: Marissa, Sharon, Kate, and Sherry.
