    Apollonia. It's a family name, I think it's a very 'big' name and super frilly. I might go for it in the MN spot though :)

  • GP name: Ember - I would never use it IRL

    Pet Name: I have a cat that I named Remington

    Family Names: I would love to use some part of my parents names in naming our future LO.  And we will be using DH middle name as our sons middle name (should we ever have one :)

    Family Names I would never use: I was looking through a family tree book my grandma has, and there was a Great great great aunt named Favorite (as in this is my favorite child)! Funny because she had siblings - it would probably suck being Favorites sister

    Friends kids: Rebecca, Stella, and Giannah (NN giji).

    Persephone and Seraphina. I think they are beautiful, but a mouthful.

    What are your friends children's names?

  • Lurker here - introed on TTGP. But this seemed like a fun game.  Hope y'all don't mind me playing.

    What is a guilty pleasure baby name that you would never actually use?

    Probably Artemis - love the name and the ctrong connections it has, but I just don't think it is a very "modern" name.

    If you have pets what are their names?

    Dacso (Dax for short.  Vizsla, which is a hungarian dog, so he got a Hungarian name).  And Leo (short for Leopold). 

    Do you have any family names you would like to use or did use with your present or future LOs? 
    Both grandmothers are Mary Jane, so I would like to keep Jane as a middle name.  James is my FIL's first name and my DH's middle name, so it will be used for a boy.  Anderson is my mom's maiden name, so I would like to keep it alive as a MN.


    What about family names you would never use?

    Sylvester and Carl (my grandfathers), Hulda (great-gradmother)

    What are your friends children's names?

    Eleanor, Sarah (AKA Sally), William (AKA Bill), Andrew, and Laney

    I have a dog named Leonidas.

    Do you have any family names you would like to use or did use with your present or future LOs?

    I want all middle names to be family names. If we have a boy his middle name will be Forest after DHs grandpa. Not my favorite name but it's fine for a middle name.

    What about family names you would never use?

    My dad wants me to use my grandpas name Jerry. I just couldn't!

    What are your friends children's names?

    Caden, Uriah, Jacob, elli, Jones, Patience. A couple others that I won't say because I'm afarid they could find it. Theyre pretty out there.

  • 1. Clementine for a girl.  I LOVE this name but we have a tabby cat called Clementine so clearly it's not going to happen.

    I also love Penelope with the NN Poppy but hubby doesn't like Poppy at all.  Poppy is a guilty pleasure dream of mine.

    Marigold too...although I would consider it as a middle name.  

    Primrose used to be a guilty pleasure but hubby said he's OK with it as a middle name so it just might happen if we get preg again and have a girl.

    I love the organic names I guess.

    For a boy I love Buckminster (nn Buck) but it seems like a lot to live up to!

     

    2. Our cats are "Clementine Delicious" and "Bubbles Precious" (Bubba)

    3. We already used a family name for our son "Henry".  His initial "H" is for his great-grandpa Harold who passed when I was pregnant and he has a great-great grandfather who was called Henry.  There are many names in our family we would use and many we would pass on.

    4. cannot remember the other questions other than what our friends kids names are and honestly - they are all across the board.  Depends the the friends :)

    What is a guilty pleasure baby name that you would never actually use? I don't think I have any that are deemed a guilty pleasure name. I like pretty normal names.

    If you have pets what are their names? Charlie and Rose are dogs, and Joey is a cat.

    Do you have any family names you would like to use or did use with your present or future LOs? My son's name is Joseph Scott. Joseph is my dad's and brother's middle name (as well as several other significant men's first names), and Scott is my husband's, father in law's, and grandfather in law's middle name. I love the name Joseph so it worked out really well. :)

    What about family names you would never use? Gorman, Donald, Norman, Herbert, etc.

    What are your friends children's names? Oh boy. There are too many to name. I don't think there are any terribly awful or terribly awesome names though.

  • What is a guilty pleasure baby name that you would never actually use?

    Adelaide. Our roommate has a cat with that name and I think it's cute. But I obviously can't name our child after a cat, so that's out.

    If you have pets what are their names?

    Storm and Rogue, both dogs.

    Do you have any family names you would like to use or did use with your present or future LOs?

    My great-grandmother's name was Lilia (pronounced leelee-ah) and I think it's beautiful but H doesn't really like it.

    What about family names you would never use?

    Eugene, Roger, Phyllis


    What are your friends children's names?

    Logan, McClain, Jack,  Korbin, Kyla, Connor, and Brooke.

  • I'll start with the girl's names first (since some are so gender neutral these days).

    What is a guilty pleasure baby name that you would never actually use?

    Donna. This is one of my best friend's names, but DH wouldn't go for it.

    Matthew. I've always loved the name, but it's my ex's name, so it ain't gonna happen.


    If you have pets what are their names?
    Mao, our rescue kitty (my profile pic). Yes, she is named for Mao Zedong.

    Laika. He was the most beautiful Husky/German Shepherd mix and he left us way too soon. We probably shouldn't have named him for the dog the Russians shot into space never to return, I guess.


    Do you have any family names you would like to use or did use with your present or future LOs?

    Elaine if we have a girl. It's my middle name, but I dropped it to keep my maiden name as my last name, so DH suggested it would be cute to keep in the family.

    Wesley is my great-great uncle's. We're thinking about it for a first or middle name, but I might change it to Westley since I'm a huge Princess Bride fan :3.

    Grant or Clark from DH's family would also be cute, but both are living, so I think that could get confusing at family gatherings.

    What about family names you would never use?

    Narcissus (seriously) and Howard, both from my side. Roger on his.

    What are your friends children's names?

    Kimber, Prestley and Georgia (nicknamed George). Both of my besties picked some cute and semi-unique names for their girls.

    Asher (nicknamed Ash). I LOVE this name and he is so cute. I don't have too many close friends with kids, but he is pretty much the only boy of my close friends with kids.
