Hurricane Names
It’s not really baby naming news – it’s meteorological, potentially catastrophic even.
And yet I can’t resist posting the 2009 list of Hurricane Names.

Sunday Summary: 3/29/09
We baptized our daughter this morning. I mention this for two reasons: first, even though our priest has baptized plenty of Jaydens and Ashleys without complaint, I’ll admit it was nice to have a saints’ name for our daughter’s baptismal certificate.
Second, my daughter’s godmother is named Sheryll. As soon as the priest handed over the [...]

Sunday Summary: 3/8/09
It’s here! Earlier this week, the Nameberry gurus published Cool Irish Names for Babies. I’ll publish a review in a few days, but for now, here’s the news:
Make Me a Supermodel Season Two is now showing on Bravo. Contestants included Salome, Sandhurst (he’s from Trinidad and Tobago) and Mountaha (she’s from Brazil.)
In more Bravo reality [...]

Name of the Day: Rosanna
Rose and Anne are staples for girls’ middle names. Smoosh ‘em together, and you arrive at a romantic, feminine and surprisingly uncommon appellation that sounds just right in the first spot.
Thanks to Charlotte for suggesting her darling daughter’s moniker as Name of the Day: Rosanna.

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell have welcomed their twin daughters. The girls are named Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip.
It’s an interesting duo. While Rose is among the most common botanical baby names, I’ve never heard of a Tulip. Rebecca and Tamara are graceful in the middle spot – Rebecca after mom and Tamara [...]

A Riot of Roses
Rose is the hot middle name of the moment, whether you’re talking about the neighbors’ new baby girl or celebrity powerhouse Nicole Kidman’s Sunday Rose.
Elisabeth at You Can’t Call It It is a big fan of Rose as a first name, à la the fictional daughter of Charlotte York Goldenblatt of Sex and the City fame. [...]

Summer Names
Memorial Day weekend officially kicks off the start of the summertime here in the US, and if you’re expecting a special delivery in the next dozen weeks, perhaps you’re dreaming of a name that celebrates the season.
The choices are plentiful for girls, but we’ve discovered a few options for boys, too. Read on for some [...]

We’ve written about middle names before. But today, we’ve decided to offer a fairly simple list for your consideration.
While many of these are gender neutral, this list was compiled with girls in mind. For decades, parents have stuffed an unimaginative Anne or Lynne between the first and last names. More recently, Grace and Rose have [...]

Starbaby Round-Up
It’s been a big two weeks for celebrity baby naming.
We had high hopes for Soleil Moon Frye and Jason Goldberg’s second daughter. Their firstborn, Poet Sienna Rose, is nicely named. Sure, it’s a little unconventional. But if you grew up playing an impish orphan called Punky, what are the odds that you’ll go with a [...]
