    Futura, if it's a girl
    Futuro, if it's a boy

    Please be joking.

    I am 36 and childfree by choice (staunchly!) and my fiancé already had a vasectomy for this reason...so yep, NEVER having children!

    However, I like names!

    My current favorites:

    Boys: Todd, Joel, Brent, Brooks, Karl, Andrew, Kipling, Scott, Christian, Luke & Seth (my favorite)

    Girls: Jill, Gillian, Romy, Delaney, Rowan, Brooke, Elodie, Liberty, Somer, Gwendolyn, Adrienne, Meredith & Berit (my favorite)

    My lovely little sister is Meredith. She loves her name and that it is fairly unique in the UK

    ETA the quote

    Done having babies I believe...but I have my girl and my boy.

    Mackenzi Rae
    Brayden Jason (middle is dad's first name)

    If I had anymore my names would be

    Lucy
    Owen

    With middle names undecided...but the hubs is snipped so shouldn't happen.

    I want to make sure my child's name is awkward to say and spell so that the world knows I value being a trendy attention *kitten* more than I value the sanity of my child. Cause it's all about mom feeling special when naming a kid, right?

    "Hurry up Jaxsoniqua Braeydon Paeyton Aiden Caydun Smiyth. Where is your sister Nevaeh?"

    this

    and to be fair, any more than 2 syllables in a name is pointless because people will never call them that (not even the mums once the novelty wears off after 2 weeks) pretty much all names get shortened

    My daughter's name is Mackenzi (3 syllables) and most people call her Mackenzi...sometimes does get shortened to Kenzi but teachers and even our 4 year old son call her Mackenzi...its what she likes better =)

    already have 3 kids and have my tubes tied cuz had preterm labor all 3 and didn't figure my body would handle more. If I did miraculously have another kid though if I had a girl I would name her Hallelujah cuz it would be great she would get called to work or something and her boss would be like Hallelujah, Can you come into work today? :)And her name would be like a celebration. If it were a boy I'd name him Revival just cuz that would be a cool and very unique name.

    Jesus, I'm going to name my kid Ashley or Michael because by the time they grow up the'll have the most unique name around.

    But I'm going to spell it A-hash-leigheee and Muhighkaeil... cause I'm a mean mom.

    :laugh:

    Girl: Lillian aka Lily
    Boy: I love Vladimir but I'm not Russian and will probably set my kid up for teasing if I named him that... Still love the name though!

    1) they're going to be your kid's name, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.

    Not true. It matters what the kid thinks!! Naming a kid Dumbledore because YOU are a Harry Potter fan is stupid, selfish and mean and will just make your kid hate you.

    It also matters what other people in your child's life think. You do your kid a disservice by naming them S'peshul Snowflayk. Your name is your identity until after you've died. Every teacher, potential employer, client, etc *will* make a judgement about you based on your name. If your child wants to be a supreme court justice, or CEO, it's unlikely to happen if their name is Bambi Trixibelle, for instance. Your child is not an accessory. It's a human being with a long life ahead of it.

    OMG. I am totally naming my kid Bambi Trixibelle.

    I'm naming mine S'peshul Snowflayk.... except I'm going to spell it s_dsFai8s eGHaiua//sdn+&ce and his or her teacher is just going to have to psychically know that it's supposed to be pronounced special snowflake. And yes all the capitals and symbols have to be just like they are written there.

    Back when I was pregnant, which feels like 1000 years ago, I frequented all kinds of pregnancy and baby forums. There was one woman who wrote on a forum dedicated to baby names, "What do you think of the name 'Eden Serenity'?" . She totally raged when someone commented that it sounded like an old folks home. I think we even got a "WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO MEAN??!?!?" comment out of her. And someone else was going to name their kid Rance. Sounds like rants. Or rancid. She flipped out when that was pointed out as well.

    see I can go one better than la-a (la dash a)

    I'm going to call my child Letitia, only I'm going to spell it

    la my-cup-of-tea.jpg sha

    and yes, whoever writes her name has to paint the cup of tea in the middle, just like that. Pretty flower decorations n'all.

    ETA: and don't forget the teaspoon
