Secrets revealed: do you like your siblings' kids' names?

Jinsy80 · June 2012

I actually do. My 19-year-old SIL had a baby this year, Adrianna Faith. She's pregnant again (ugh!), she was thinking of Lilianna. No idea for a boy though. My younger half-sister (21) had a baby boy this year...Jonathan. I was really expecting crazy names from those two!

I have 3 nieces. 2 of their names grew on me (Tessa and Talia), and I liked one from the start (Ruby).

DH has 9 nieces and nephews and 2 great nephews, and I truly love most of their names.

My SIL has 3 children: Sam, Jack and Grace. I love them, so crisp and clean. To me, it is a great sibset.

My Sis named her daughter Amellia. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the name but I hate that she (OK, her DH) thought the 2 ls looked nicer than the correct spelling. It's not horrible, but I like a name spelled as it should be.

My nephew is Mason, it's not my favorite name, too popular, and the overall name it's self doesn't wow me. I don't hate it tho.

My sister has two children, Breanna and Logan. I wouldn't have used Breanna but that's mainly because I knew a particularly nasty Breanne growing up. I do love that she's named after our dad (Brian) and the name suits her perfectly. I love Logan, and if my sister hadn't already used it, it would be on my list.

I'm also very close with my cousins and a lot of them have kids:

Xavier (NMS at all), Mason (too popular for me) and Cecelia (love)

Maryn (love), Duncan (NMS), and Conal (I'm indifferent)

Kam-ryn ('nuff said) (no hyphen IRL, just preventing googling), Gracen (alright), and Easton (too country for me)

Carson (too popular for me)

Lane (alright, but I'm not big on one-syllable names)

Aiden (wayy to popular)

My nephew's name rhymes with Aidan. 'Nuff said.

(I like my niece's name better).

My nephew is named Rider, it is NMS, but it suits him perfectly. He is of Native American descent, so all that much more it makes sense.

My nieces: Hanna, Sarah, Mallorie, Avery, Ella. My nephews: two of the boys go by a nickname based on their father's names, and Bradlee. Name-wise Mallorie is my favorite, even with the alternate spelling.
