Re: Name our child
A friends sister had a daughter called Taylah, but they didn't want it to be common so they called her Tail-a WTF
There are heaps of Noah's Kia's Jai's Coopers Isaacs Finn's, Elijah, etc for boys
And for girls Issabellas, Mykaelas, taylahs, Amy's Annika's, Tanika's, Shannika's (anything that can be made up with "Ika" on the end basically and that is that bit "cool"
)

Tuesday Baybee 
it's like Geri Haliwell with Bluebell Madonna thats a name i feel sorry for the child as she gets older she will probably just get referred to as Belle.
I like unusual names but some are just too far out!!

Re: Name our child
I like the idea of combining our two names together to make a unique name for our child
If it's a girl, it will be called Simonna and if it's a boy, it will be called Domon. Middle names will be a combination of our middlen names - Elbru or Brusta.

Re: Name our child
Oh, that's a lovely name - if only I and OH were called Malcolm and Sandra. Maybe we should get our names changed by deed poll so we can call our child Malandra if it's a girl?

Re: Name our child
When we chose the name for our first, we looked at an atlas from the province we were living in and took all the place names that could be people names. e.g. Queen Charlotte Islands, Hope, Victoria, Courtenay, Prince George,
Everett, Duncan. I know there were more, but can't remember. We had the girl ones in a pink hat and the boy ones in a blue hat and on the day of the birth when the midwife said "you have a girl" my hub picked a name out of the pink hat. We always knew that Joy would be a middle name for our girl and when hub pulled a name out Charlotte was the name he picked.
For our second one we named him Colin after Canadian musician Colin James, who had been a neighbour of ours when we lived on the west coast.
We had friends who named their daughter Kryssi Celine. Now where is that puking smiley when you need it?

Re: Name our child
Ok, I work with a Skye. She really fits her name, too. She's this real hippie chick. Very blond and almost etherial. My neice is Krystal (although I think it sounds like a stripper name).
I work in an office that deals with a LOT of people and one of my workmates and I sit and chuckle at all the bogan names. There was a big rush of names ending with "lene" back in the late '50s and early '60s here: Raelene, Joylene, etc.
I think people have to realise that a name is for eternity. What may be cute or trendy today could be a real pain in the bum later in life for someone. Dweezil Zappa or Zowie Bowie are perfect examples.
