Baby names » Group

When I was pregnant with my daughter we couldn't settle on a name but we both knew that we wanted something uncommon, but not stupid.

Enter the American TV show 'The Gilmore Girls'. It was in it's first season in Australia and as soon as we heard the name Lorelai we knew that we had found the perfect name.

It took my family a awhile to get used to it, especially mum as she had called her children all by traditional names.  But they soon warmed up to it and now everyone says what a beautiful name and even go on the give the meaning of the name (to my suprise).

The only downfall is that I don't want it to be abbreviated to 'Lorry or Lori' at school as it sounds like a truck that carts wood if you know what I mean.  My Nan and Father in law call her Lolli for short and I'm ok with that.  The other thing is that you can't walk into a novelty shop and by a keyring or hairbrush etc with her name on it because it is not a common name.

Inde but im not sure can everyone tell how to pronounce it? its pronounced Indie id hate to give my child a name that they are forever correcting! Inde Ana (but the again does anyone think kids will be able to tease her cause of Indianna Jones??) Elsie (my great nan's name)  Pisani (my boyf last name)  lots of variations i can do and im not sure Inde, Indie, Indy, Inde-Ana lol does my head in thinking about it!

Also Katie Diane(my nan's name)  Pisani and Kailee but my boyf neice is called Halle woul that be weird? If i have a boy i like Nicholas Kenneth (my pop) Pisani (that doesnt sound too ethnic?) and Hayden Christopher 

Well anyway a few more yrs before i get into the baby dust so lots of time to mull =) lol just re-reading this it sounds so confusing i can re-edit please complain if u like!

thats wat im naming my baby just need to find out wat im having to know which one..

I met a guy called Bryn when I was 15 and thought he had the coolest name but by the time I was 20 and pregnant with a boy I couldn't remember the name. I was working in the bank at the time and an old man came in with a beard, all in leathers etc. He was really gross but his name was Bryn so it jogged my memory! My second son we named Carden James. I wanted to go for a designer name (something like Chanel etc) so we were on our way to the 20 week scan where we'd find out the sex of the baby and I was going through names out loud when I said Cardin (as in pierre cardin). We got home and googled it for a spelling or to see if it was even a name. We chose the spelling with 'e' which is actually a very very old name, more of a last name really. It was officially recorded in USA in 2005 as a first name. There was also a famous baseball player called Carden in the 50's. I love both my boys names because they are unusual but not tacky. Carden James is a classy name I think (I hope hehe).

Wow, A group entirely dedicated to names, how cool! Anyways, I have two little girls under two, and I named them ANGEL & DESTINY. I always get a reaction from people when they find out. Now I'm pregnant again and my husband wants to pick a name. BEAUTY as I'm having another girl. What do you guys think of the names?

Hi all, guess what, I am the only Zeenith in Papua New Guinea. I was named by my dad and my name is a modification of zenith which is "the highest point".
