Was is a Jr? Family name? You pulled it out of a hat?

I hope this hasn't been asked before (I did a search but didn't see anything like this) but a few ladies and I were talking about it at work and it made me wonder about you ladies (and gents if there are any dads who read this board!).

My daughter's name is Adrianna Faith;

I had always like the name Gianna (except I wanted to spell it with a J instead of a G since my mom and I are both J names--I'm Jessica, she is Jerilyn and wanted to "keep it going") but my boyfriend/baby's father shot it down instantaneously. So we got the baby name book, started with A, and when we got to "Adrianna", we both liked it and that was that. As for her middle name, "Faith" was my grandmother's middle name.

Now share your story(ies)!

Sebastian D'Marco Benitez

My father went to San Sebastian church in Mexico and my mother loves the name Marco and if another boy had been born after me, he was going to be named that but my mom miscarried. And since his father was cheating and was deported, he got my last name.

So I combined them and added the D'

I feel it is very stong name and has history behind it thanks to his lovely Grandparents!

BTW, I was named after Stella Stevens...ew.

I love that name! Since it's pretty long do you call him by any nicknames or is it Sebastian every time? With Adrianna we call her Adri or Lil' A for short sometimes

I call him Sebby, but I hate hearing someone else call him that. But most of the time I can him "papa"

For the record I love Gianna.

Well I don't have any children, but my mother loved my first name from the baby book, then my middle name is after my great grandmother. Kristen Rose.

My sister's first name is from a distant cousin I believe, and her middle name is my mother's name. Kathryn Teresa.

I don't have any children but I want to use names that aren't crazy popular (when I was growing up and beginning to work I couldn't believe how many Jennifers and Johns there were--all having to be called slightly different like Jen G, Jen S etc or Jen, Jenny, Jennifer---gets to be a little much!) but not so obscure that its hard to pronounce.

If I were to have a child tomorrow (won't happen anytime soon) but I like the names Cadence or Charisma for a girl. I'm sure that'll change by the time I have kids!

No children, but my mother liked the Irish derivation of her name, so she chose another name with the same derivation, Karen, but since she knew people with that name, she decided to go with a different spelling - the Dutch version, Karin. My middle name is Elizabeth...it's a family name on both my mom's and dad's side of the family. BTW...my parents were expecting me to be a boy named Kevin (before the time of ultrasounds) based on my heartbeat. Big surprise for them!

If and when my husband and I are ready to have children, I think I will probably go with family names. I've been mulling this over for the past couple of years and I keep coming to the same conclusion. But who knows, maybe that will change once I actually see my child.

Madisyn Rae Acosta

My dad's name is Madison and I'm his only child and none of my aunts had any children so it is kind of my tribute to him since there wouldn't be any jrs. Rae is a shortened version of my middle name Raenae.

Brooklyn Paige Acosta
Now her name was picked off a board of sorts. I was going to name her
Delanie or Delaney but I wasn't really "satisfied" with the name. So one day we are in Chilli's restaurant and I see Brooklyn on a pepper like someone with that name had donated a dollar. I was like I would have never thought of Brooklyn as a name and I didn't know any Brooklyn's so it stuck with me. Paige was a girl that I went to school with and she was the first and only Paige I have yet to met. I also wanted a name with a y in it cause I think drop letters look so cute (provided you have nice handwriting LOL) So I guess Brooklyn's name came from me trying to be different and rebelling, because no one in my family liked the name and most of them will call her Paige to this day.

I have no kids yet..( and not for a while haha) but I have always wanted to name my daughter Adrianna. I wanted Jolie as a middle name..but then it sounds too much like Angelina Jolie. So I might just do Adrianna Marie.

for a boy, I want Jayden. Not too sure on a middle name yet.

My name is Anjelique. My parents just liked the name.. and my middle name is Monique. I knoww. it rhymes lol.

edit- I guess its a good thing my parents agreed on Anjelique, because my dad wanted to name me Petunia haha! ( well he used to tell me that alllll the time when i was younger!)
