I'm expecting a boy. We've chosen the name Judah Rayner, nn Jude.
You say: It's a nice combo, but Judah?
You think: I'm surprised that anyone would want to name their kid after Judah. Rayner is nice, I also like Raina / Rayna for a girl.
You suggest: How about just Jude Rayner.

I'm expecting a girl. I think we're going to name her Delaney Corisande, nn Dela.
You say: How pretty!
You think: Very pretty, although the flow is a bit off.
You suggest: Delia Corisande

I'm having a boy. We're really religious, and have no compunction about making our beliefs public, so we're naming our son Amos Obadiah.
You say: That's an interesting choice
You think: But I really can't stand either name.
You suggest: Amadeo : )

I'm having a girl, and I love frilly, girly names. We're thinking of using Felicity Annis.
You say: That's cute.
You think: Felicity is okay, but Annis makes me think of Anus.
You suggest: Felicity Anais

I don't know whether it's a boy or girl, so I'm going with something unisex. The baby's name, regardless of sex, will be Avery Belrose. Belrose is an old family surname.
You say: Belrose is very pretty
You think: Poor kid would probably be teased. And Avery always makes me think of Ovary.
You suggest: Emery or Emyr Belrose for a boy, Ava Belrose for a girl.

I'm expecting twin girls. I'm so excited, b/c I love theme-y names. They're going to be Lily Ruth and Iris Mae.
You say: How adorable!
You think: A beautiful twin set! And I adore Lily Ruth ; )
You suggest: No need for change.

I'm expecting twin boys. I love alliterated names for twins, so my boys are going to be Ezra Kyle and Eben Keith.
You say: Cute!
You think: Ezra & Eben are nice, but I don't like Kyle & Keith.
You suggest: Can't think of anything.

I'm adopting b/g twins. Since twin names always sound the same, I'm naming the girl Calla Eden and the boy Calvin Pierce.
You say: They're a bit too similar don't you think?
You think: Calla & Calvin are much too similar and I don't care for Calvin ay all. Calla Eden & Pierce are nice though.
You suggest: Calla Eden & Corbin Pierce.
