Name that baby
By: Jennifer Gove
So you are pregnant and the excitement is still thick in the air then the name game starts…..
The moment you heard you were pregnant all your favorite names jumped into your mind. That perfect name you always said you would name your first born you find out moments later your partner hates! He flat out hates it! He then spills out the most horrible name that has ever touched your ears! Does any one still name their children names like that? You think not! So what do you do to come to a conclusion on a name you both love?
-Write separate lists of names you love then switch lists and choose five favorites on each others list and combine the list of favorite names.
-Be willing to talk about names you do not like and understand they won't be used
-Does changing the spelling make you like a name better?
-Does adding a different middle or first name change how much you like a particular name?
-Get ideas and opinions from friends and family.
-Pour over baby books together talk about the names you like.
-Do not insist your partner like the names you do, the world is full of names and you WILL find one you both love.
-Take a break you have nine months to find that perfect name.
