D names!

We are now on D names!!! I actually am not a fan of very many D names but here we go! The top D name for each gender is Daniel and Destiny. Daniel is number 8 and means God is my judge, while Destiny is at number 71! and obviously, Destiny means.... you guessed it! Destiny! Daniel is defiantly my favorite D boys name but I also like Dean, Dashiell, and Darien!
and for my girls I love Delilah, Delia, Day, and Demi!

soo this was a really short name blog so I will post another short one in a little bit when I come up with an idea for one :)

Tryndeigh VS Classic spellings!

So as you can probably tell, I do not like "cr8ive" name spellings, for example the top ten baby names for each gender and their "Cr8ive" spellings:

GIRLS:
Isabella ---> Iysabela (ive actually seen it spelled that way)
Sophia ---> Sofiuh
Emma ---> Emuh
Olivia ---> Alyvya
Ava ---> Aveh
Emily ---> Emmaleigh
Abigail ---> Abbygale
Madison ---> Madizin
Chloe ---> Cloe
Mia ---> Meeuh

BOYS:
Jacob ---> Jaykob
Ethan ---> Ithen
Michael ---> Mikal
Jayden ---> Jaidin
William ---> Willyam (not really sure how to give such a classic name a Cr8ive spelling)
Alexander ---> Aliksandar
Noah ---> Noeh
Daniel ---> Dannyel
Aiden ---> Aydon
Anthony ---> Anthunii

So now you know what I mean by Cr8ive right? well I like the classic way of spelling names, it doesn't cause confusion...

But I also understand why parents would give their kids a different spelling of a name, It's unique! If your going to give your child a popular name, give them a unique spelling right? in my oppinion, Wrong! no body will be abble to pronounce little Meeuh's name right the first time. And poor Aliksandar will have to spell his name out for everyone the rest of his life!

Well thats just my oppinion, whats yours? comment below what the worst spelled name you have ever seen is!

Alia- Alia is also very pretty and sweet sounding (pronounced uh-lye-uh)
Agnes- Although this is a very old lady-ish sounding name, I think it would be beautiful on a little girl!
Annabelle- I think Annabelle is great and it has soooo many nicknames like Anna,Anne, Belle, Bella, Elle, Ellie!

My Favorite Names!

  • Hiya!
I like the old-fashioned-but-cool kind of names
my favorite boys names are Atticus, Felix, Phineas, and Tobias are all really cool names (in my opinion!)
I also like girls names like Celia, Evangeline, Florence, Genevieve, Matilda and Violet!

I like some names that are considered "Hipster", like Annabelle, August, Delilah,Jude, Hazel, Hudson, Ivy, June, Leonora, Milo, Theo, Ruby, and Scarlett.

A few things I would take into consideration when choosing names
  1. will the name age well?
  2. do I want a name that has any nicknames?
  3. would a child with this name be made fun of?
  4. does this name flow well with the middle name? (examples; Matteo Jude flows much better than Matteo Kyle, and Adele Ivy Flows better that Nora Ivy)
A few Name combinations I like are
  • Adele Ivy
  • Matteo Jude
  • Delilah Alexa
  • Phineas Levi
  • Matlida June
  • Florence Abigail
  • August Milo
Comment on these names and tell me what you think about them! leave names you like and I'll tell you what I think!
