Sunday Summary: 8/29/10
My week at the beach was spent listening for names (well, there was ice cream and sand and a giant waterslide called the Hippo) but I didn’t hear much. There was a Veronica nicknamed Vera, but mostly it was the pleasant Top 100 assortment of Ethan, Dylan, Emma, Riley, Noah, Chloe, Caleb, Jackson, Zachary, Ellie, [...]

Sunday Summary: 3/28/10
Yesterday morning was The Great Magruder Park Egg Hunt in our town. The kids were there for candy; I was there to listen for names: Jonah, Nora, Dorothy, Caroline, Clara, Seamus, Ellis, a pair of Abigails, Zora, Micah, Carsten, Jackson. There was also a mom toting an Orla Kiely bag, but I seem to recall [...]

I doubt we’ll ever have a third child. There are dozens of practical reasons. And one reason that’s trivial for him, dead serious for me: we could never agree on a name. We do have a few candidates, scraps from the cutting room floor. I’ve mentioned them in comments from time to time, but I [...]

Name of the Day: Veronica
Her roots are ancient, but her sound remains edgy – even in 2009. Thanks to Kelly for suggesting Veronica as Name of the Day. Share this: Email StumbleUpon Digg Reddit Print Facebook Press This

Sunday Summary: 11/1/09
I hope everyone had a spooktacular October 31. My firstborn led the neighborhood kids in a chant of “Halloween! Halloween!” as they walked through the streets, accumulating an unreasonable amount of candy. They grow up so fast … But speaking of treats, our new neighbors have a son named Ellis and a daughter named Zora. [...]

Sunday Summary: 7/12/09
I spent Saturday afternoon at a kid-friendly baby shower, trying not to grill the expectant mom about baby names. (They’re not finding out the gender, and they’re not sharing names in advance. Torture!) But among the small guests? A pint-sized Zora, named after the author. In other name news: I don’t think the Mostly Cajun [...]

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. Share this: Email StumbleUpon Digg Reddit Print Facebook Press This

25 Sensible Names for Girls
While we’re of the opinion that there is no such thing as a normal name, we do grudgingly admit that there are safe, sensible choices. These are names that will never prompt a stranger to say, “What an interesting name!” But neither will they cause someone to do a double take and say, “Umm … [...]

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 [...]
