What’s in a Name?

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

Trying to come up with the perfect name for our unborn children can be a challenge. And even when you think you have come up with that perfect name, someone out there will just not like it. For example, today at the pool a 6 year old told my daughter that she did not like her name, which is Maya. When my husband and I came up with that name we thought that it was great! It means so much in so many different languages, it was not considered trendy so the odds of having more than one Maya in her class was low, and it was so simple that we did not have to give her a nickname. Though we do have a few nicknames for her out of love…Maya papaya, Mayalicious, and M…we could pretty much keep her name the way we gave it to her.

Which brings me to another point when naming your child. Consider the consequences if you give baby a name that is not easy to spell. Double whammy if the last name is difficult as well. Do you really want your baby to have to spell out their first and last name for the rest of their life. Again, my last name is Saib, and I always have to spell out…S as in Sam, A, I, B as in boy. Add to it that I am always asked how do you pronounce it. I made sure my kids had easy names. Maya and Adam. No questions there.

Lately I have been hearing some pretty names in the store, and some are on the popular side. For girls, I am hearing Olivia, Lily, and my favorite right now is Ellington. For boys, Cooper, Jackson, and Tyler.

Just know whatever you name your baby, there will be some people who will love it, and some 6 year olds who will hate it.

Cheers to your belly!
