Mum named us all names that couldn't be shortened too (Emma, JOhn, Claire and Paul) and she gets really feisty when she hears people calling me Em or Ems. Which is funny coz it doesn't bother me lol.

I've definitely used up my quota of girls names on the gremlins, I didn't really like Mercedes to start with and my sister reckons it's a stripper name, but it grew on me and now I think it suits my little Sadie-baby. Most of you know the story behind Sienna's name, I 'stole' it off someone else coz of course you can 'own' names . And Maya was Maya from very early on after Maya Angelou.

I love Mercedes middle name, Kailah, too, my Mum picked it after she saw it on a waitresses name tag once.
I also like Gabrielle/a, Luca (for a girl), Ava, Shyla and Kayla. And Xanthesmum, I thihk your two girls have beautiful names.]]> Sat, 19 May 2007 10:32:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=147591&title=names#147591 <![CDATA[names : we had myah zoey for a girl when...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=147577&title=names#147577 Author: jack_&_charli

I have a friend with the name Siobhan - such a nice way to spell Shavaughn I think.

We've got Ava for a girl. Have had it since I was about 14 and I'm not changing now! I like Xanthe too, but I want a good strong name that she can use when she's older too (not that you can't use Xanthe, I love it, I just like Ava for our last name more - Xanthe doesn't go with our W last name very well).]]> Fri, 18 May 2007 20:07:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=147426&title=names#147426 <![CDATA[names : I love the name Grace for a girl....]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=147408&title=names#147408 Author: arohanui

my friend called her baby arabella, it reminded me instantly of the lady on my daughters fairy videos with a really anoying voice.

its funny how names make you think of certian things or remind you of someone ( sometimes not good)

we get childrem with really bazar names in at my work, sometimes you feel sorry for the harasment for them eg: lightning storm . . . . . . and pixie rainbow

my daughter was going to be named jasmine, but i for some reason changed it the instant she was born to sarah, and now i couldnt imagine her being called jasmine.

Ha, If Paris had been a boy she would have been probably a bailey or Xander funnily enough.. (lucky she wasn't aye, otherwise there would have been a mix up at Xander's partys!), Ayja was going to be Leo if she was a boy, i also liked Issac and we were toying with the idea of Sage. (my little sister named her boys Bailey and Issac).

Other names i liked for girls..

Veda(like off my girl)
Jasmine
Eden (have heard of a boy called this and it's really kewl)
Opal
Coral
Tamsyn

I too also like Lilly and Chloe, also mike liked Angel.. for a boy or girl, and Sage can be boy or girl too.

We chose names that couldn't be shortened, no nicknames etc.. some people like to choose names that have nicknames or pet names that can come from them.. we instead wanted our kids to be called by their actual names. (although most of you will have heard Paris calling Ayja "Ayja-Bear" the other day..lol it used to be "Ayja-baby")

I can see Paris when she's older.. being the big boss, lol.. very snoooooty and proper. ha ha, And Ayja i can also see as a 30-something too.. i get get what is meant by having names that carry well into adulthood, sometimes you just think "what will that kid go thru as an adult?"

Ella is a lovely name, and by the time she's 30 they'll be lots of them.

Oooh thanks for the heads-up on how to pronounce Briony - I had it wrong all along!  Pretty name.  I'm on the Ella is a great name no matter what age, bandwagon!!  (obviously!  )

I also love Lily, Olivia, Kaitlyn, Rose, Trieste (pronounced like "dressed" but with a 'tr'), Sienna, Genevive, and the name no-one agrees with me on... Lee-Lee!  I know, I won't actually name a child that.  But probably simply because DH won't allow it!  Oh, and the biblical name Dorcas. 

 

 

I'm kidding about Dorcas.  That name just cracks me up though!!

We were going to use Lily but have no need for that name now.. Our other faves were:

Greer
Siena
Finley
Kelsey
Tori

I really like Tessa too.]]> Mon, 14 May 2007 12:14:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=145035&title=names#145035 <![CDATA[names : I would like to have a Janelle...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=145028&title=names#145028 Author: busymum

Well I love the name Cassidy for a girl, & would've had it with this one, if it's a girl. DH doesn't like it, even as a 2nd name... so you're welcome to it, if you like it.

I like that it can be shortened to Cass or Cassie & think it sounds pretty & feminine.

We are using Ella Rose as a name - I appears it is very popular but it is so beautiful.

I think it can suit anyone at any age - I dont think this is an issue]]> Mon, 14 May 2007 09:37:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144921&title=names#144921 <![CDATA[names : We are only at the early stages...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144893&title=names#144893 Author: bookwyrm

We are only at the early stages of pregnancy but we are finding it fun choosing possible girl and boy baby names.

I have always loved Madison but I have lots of others on my list.

And Jacob for a boy. Because Jay or Jake sound nice for a nickname.

We are using Rose as a second name but I think it would make a lovely first name....only reason we arent is that the 2 names we have chosen work better if Rose is 2nd.]]> Mon, 14 May 2007 08:22:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144883&title=names#144883 <![CDATA[names : Bombshell wrote:we loved Ella...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144877&title=names#144877 Author: meow

Hey! I think it's a very pretty name! I can think of worse names for a 30 year old to be called!!

We chose it before we heard of how popular it was, we named her when I was 4 months pregnant (before we found out she was a girl, I just knew that she was). After she was born and I found out just how popular the name was, I considered changing it! lol.. but didn't ]]> Mon, 14 May 2007 08:13:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144877&title=names#144877 <![CDATA[names : I found the girls names hard as...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144866&title=names#144866 Author: hailstones

I found the girls names hard as well....we too had a boys name but no girls (I was sure she was a he).

I LOVED Ella or Bella, but our golden Lab is called Stella, and it would've caused a bit of confusion (probably for both of them). I also love Lilly - But my best friend's name is Lil (well its her nickname really but I have always used it) and I have 2 friends with wee Lilly's.
Other names I liked were......
Isobelle
Greer
Madilene ( but maybe not so good with Madison)
Jorja
Samantha / Sam
Briony (not sure of spelling) ]]> Mon, 14 May 2007 07:51:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144866&title=names#144866 <![CDATA[names : lily mckenzie hope iris lucy raylene jorja any...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7496&PID=144845&title=names#144845 Author: Bizzy

we loved Ella too but couldnt imagine a 30 year old being called Ella - hence Gabriella....and Ella is sooo popular - like number 2 on list of names...

there are loads of names ending in Ella you could choose and shorten...Gabriella gets called Ella, Bella and Gaby / Gabbie...and i would let u use name of course too....LOL!!!

also Elle - Hailstones called her bubba Elle and that is also pretty - and again plenty of names end in Elle (including mine and my mums - hence how we kinda chose Gabriella)

have fun choosing names....there are so many....

Baby names
DH & I had heaps of fun going through different names & meanings of names. You can make a list of favourites & see how it fits with surnames
Good luck
