Would it be weird if I named my daughter "Forever"?
I always think that when naming a child you need to consider how others will treat him/her, and with a name like Forever you're asking for trouble. Most kids don't want unique, weird names, they simply want to be 'normal'. You can choose a name that isn't too common without being ridicules. It's a fact that children with odd, weird or silly names can indeed suffer academically as well as socially. I'm sure you don't want your child to have any of those problems so think of something more suitable.

Do you think it would be weird to name my daughter Harlow??
I love the actress Jean Harlow. I am considering Harlow for a middle name for my daughter and this was decided way before Nicole Richie and her naming her daughter Harlow. Do I think it's weird you want to name your daughter Harlow? No!!! I think it's a beautiful name. If you really do love it, then go with it. Congratulations!!!!
Should I name my daughter Love?
While I have my own preferences and opinions about names, you should know that an unusual name is actually the norm now. People are choosing from larger and larger numbers of names, particularly for girls. About 50 years ago, most babies were given names from the top 10 names list so having a “weird” name back then was much different from now where everyone is trying to be unique.You may actually find that Love is not as uncommon as you think. Nancy's Baby Names is a good resource for less common names and the SSA has data available on all names each year so long as they were given to 5+ babies.I prefer word names when someone wants a baby name that stands out. They are easily spelled and recognizable because they are words but they still seem fresh because most people won't have heard them as names before.My daughters go by nicknames and they are both word names (they also both happen to be leaves): Bay and Maple. Maple isn't in school yet but they both love having less common names so they don't have to share them with everyone else.If you like Love and it sounds good with the last name, go for it. Yes, there may be jokes, but teasing is not the same now for unusual names as it once was.
Should I name my daughter Lolita?
I am in love with the name Lolita, I find it so charming and beautiful(even despite it's meaning, 'suffering' in spanish.) I am pregnant and expecting a girl, and I plan on naming her Lolita, However i am very aware of the reputation this name holds thanks to Nabokov's novel, 'Lolita' which has been made into two movies. For those who don't know the story: Humbert Humbert, a British professor coming to the US to teach, rents a room in Charlotte Haze's house, but only after he sees her 14-year-old daughter, Dolores (Lolita), to whom he is immediately attracted. Though he hates the mother, he marries her as this is the only way to be close to the girl, who will prove to be too mature for her age. They start a journey together, trying to hide they're not just (step)father and daughter, throughout the country, being followed by someone whom Humbert first suspects to be from the police. The profound jealousy, and maybe some guilt from the forbidden love, seem slowly to drive the man emotionally labile. Because of this, the name Lolita has come to be a general term for a sexually-precocious young girl (a lolita) and i would hate for my daughter to grow up being made fun of for her name. Do you think it is okay to name my daughter Lolita?
Is it weird to name your future daughter after your crush?
It is weird if the crush is like somebody you saw in the coffee shop for 30 seconds on Tuesday.But if it’s a special crush, like that one from highschool senior year that you almost got to date with, but ended up parting ways before anything happened, and you remember her even after 15 years?Then no, it is not weird.Personally, I don’t believe in putting the past behind me if it’s something worth remembering. I treasure my past and my memories. They made me who I am today. If I had a crush that I was really close with for years and somehow we needed to go separate ways, I would try my best to remember her forever, even if I get married and have kids, or even grand-kids.It doesn’t mean I want to cheat. It means that I miss her, just as I miss other memorable things in the past that had happened to me.PS : If you must do it, make sure your wife doesn’t find out
Is it weird to have my first name also be my daughter s middle name?
No, it’s quite common. People want their children to carry on their name, but having the same first name can be confusing. Using your name as a middle name is a solution.I have 6 sisters. All of them have a child with a parent’s first name as a middle name. I can thinks of several friends who do, too.I didn’t do this because I have an old-lady name, but if we had had a son his middle name was going to be Brian, my husband’s name.
Is it weird that I want to name my daughter Mona Lisa?
I was thinking for names for daughter and I wanted something meaningful. When I was little my stepmom used to call me Mona which in Spanish means monkey she would call me that because I loved playing on the monkey bars. She continued to call me that up into my teens. Now I know that this sounds weird but I want to name my daughter Mona but not just Mona (monkey), I wanna name her Mona Lisa. I know it's a dumb but for some reason I wanted to combine my childhood nickname with something Classic. Opinions on this?
Is it weird my husband wants to name our daughter after his mother?
It varies in different cultures. Jewish people do give their children the same name as living relatives - so as to not confuse the Angel of Death when he comes to escort people into the afterlife - from a more practical point of view it avoids confusion at family reunions. Other cultures think it shows a great deal of respect to name children after parents or grandparents etc - in Russia, children’s middle names come from the Father’s first name, so, if Andrei Zakharchenko had a son named Boris & a daughter named Valentina, Boris’s full name would be Boris Andreiovich Zakharchenko, his daughter’s full name would be Valentina Andreievna Zakharchenko.
