Baby Names

Opinions welcome

DH and I are in a toss up between three names.  I would be curious as to what your thoughts are with regards to these names.

Minot Pierce (both family names) nn Mitt

Jart Pierce (both family names) nn JP

Donovan Pierce (I just love the name Donovan and DH is ok with it)

Re: Opinions welcome

  • Jart? I could never, ever do that to somebody.
    Donovan by a million miles!
  • Loading the player...
  • Donovan is the only name on that list I would consider.
  • I may be pronouncing it wrong, and I may have the mind of a 12 year old boy, but Jart immediately made me think shart. Donavan is great, it gets my vote!

    Ditto this.

  • Donovan, no contest. I get the other are family names, but don't do that to your child. Or, reverse it with Pierce as the first name.

  • Pierce! Not a fan of the FN options, but reversed I think any of them would be great.
  • Definitely Donovan!

  • I'd also reverse it and go with Pierce for a first name.
  • Minot = Minot, North Dakota
    Jart = Ditto previous post, shart
    Donovan = The easy and obvious winner

  • I love Donovan..  that is our top boy name if we ever have another and will call him Van for short

    Sorry but really dislike Minot (like minnow?  just sounds so soft or something for a boy)

    and ditto what pps said of Jart- waaayyy too many ways to torture a kid on the playground with that name

  • Donovan!!!

    Jart just screams juicy fart.

    My thought exactly. I would not name a child Jart no matter how beloved the family member was.

    Minot looks like a smush between Monet and Pinot to me, so I get a kind of faux-cultural vibe. I'm also not sure if it is meant to be pronounced Me-no, Mee-not, My-not, etc, but I don't think any of those sound particularly attractive. Donovan is great.

  • Pierce is fantabulous! Love love. Donovan is my second fave from your list.

    Please cross the others off your list. I know it's after family but.... #-o Goodness those are some mighty rough names for an itty bitty baby to handle.


        




     

  • Donovan. Hands down. Please don't name him Jart. The teasing would be nonstop.

  • Out of those name, I'm thinking Donovan is probably the best bet. I have no idea who "Minot" is pronounced (Is it pronounced like "Minute" or "Minnow" or something?) Either way, I can see that being pretty susceptible to being made fun of... but not as much as Jart would be ridiculed. Because, seriously, I'm going to use that now to mean juicy+fart. Best thing ever!
