Ae Mez of Badness

I am having a baby naming delimma myself. I am working on a girl name. I really want something original. The family middle name is Mercedes so at least that is handled( I got used to the name when I met his family, the women are strong and passionate) it means virgin mary and is latin.

Yeah, but do you have a last name picked out?

The name I really like and haven’t told my husband yet is Aemezolina Mercedes. I love the huge name, but I think I would call her Mollie for short. It is an Indian name that I have changed a bit. Versions of it are also African and Latin. As far as I could find it has a rout that means, tower or strenght. I also like Isadora, but have much more passion for the first name. I would love help.

Well, the first step is admitting you need help. Good for you.


Have these people grasped yet that a kid’s not really named after something if their creativity-starved parents go and screw around with the spelling? Um….no.

Re: Yesterday’s Suckage

great name… I love Quinlynn, have you thought about adding a sylabel to make pronuncian easier? I only say that because my name is Angelique Jacquelyn. I like Quinelyn or Quinylin or Quinalynn.

So really you’re saying it to spread your misshappen evil around, making a confusing name surrealistically bizarre? Interesting.

Damn Mosquitos

For a girl I was thinking of naming her Quinlynn or Quinnlyn or something spelt similar. I can’t find it in any books. What do you think of this name? Does it sound feminine?

No, it sounds like a 19th century cure for malaria.

My Favorite Form of Fructose

I think nameing your own child is very personal. It also is passed down from your parents. For example, My mother always tried to give us orginal names, My younger sisters name is Beaudra. Yet my husbands family gave practical names, his name is Reed, Becky, and Elizabeth are his sisters. So our children are Gabriel James, Darrian Reed, and we are expecting a girl her name will be CrystalLynn Elise.

Do you think CrystalLynn, with it’s double L and intra-name capitalization is the real spelling, or, based on this woman’s “original” grasp of spelling and punctuation, that it’s a terrible, terrible mistake? Or it’s just a terrible mistake, period.


(Added joke for people old enough to remember the jingle: “I believe in CrystalLynn ’cause it believes in MEEEEEE!”)

Parenting Wears You Down

I didn’t have this much trouble naming my first three kids either~~they are: Michelle Kaye, Kathleen Cierra, and Abbey Julieanna. What do you think of Kaylyn Arriana? Also, do you like the spelling Kaylan or Kaylyn better?

Observe the evolution from sanity to madness. First the middle names are spelled funny, then are odd names spelled funny, then creeping into strangely spelled but normal first names, then all hell breaks loose.

Two Words: Engelbert. Humperdinck.

I have a 7 yr. old daughter named Mariah Carrie [last name] … as you can tell my husband really likes the singer and we even have a picture with the real Mariah Carey and my Mariah Carrie together. So we are expecting our second child in April and i think we should stick with a singer/star name since we started it with Mariah, yet we call her maya. Sex is unknow so if its a boy I like: Marc Anthony and if its a girl: Aaliyah Marie. What do you guys think? any suggestions? any star/singer names?

[No comment, just the sound of muffled weeping.]

Yuppie Absolution

My mothers name is Stella. Her mother was Gertrude. Mom’s grandmother was Sylvia. Feel free to use any of these family heirlooms.

“We decided to name her Gertrude Stella Johnson.”

“Oh, that’s nice. Are those family names?”
“No, they’re the names of some total strangers’ relatives and mean absolutely nothing to us.”
“Oh.”

You just know this lady’s gonna name her kids Ruger and Ashelynn and needed some Yuppie Absolution. What she really needs is a dictionary, to help her with that really, really complicated “heir” part of “heirlooms.”

Well here is the problem my husband and i are having, I am due any day now and like the rest of you wondering what to name our daughter. I like the name Cicely and my husband wants the name Ticely.
