Baby name opinion....


Expecting a child, a baby girl. I have never been one for unusual names but one that I have never heard as a name has been nagging me as a consideration. ....Stereo..... Am I just getting used to the sound of a totally ridiculous and cruel first gift to her? Initially our friends just laughed but some are coming around with positive comments... Stereo....

My brother vowed as a child to name his first daughter, if a daughter, "Felony." Cause it's pretty. Or perhaps "Twizler." Because and female child who survived puberty with a name like that would be bound to be a force of nature.

Now that he's actually on the verge of spawning (next month), he's thought better of it. A wise decision.

And then there was the friend who announced that he'd lick the "boy problem" for his daughter proactively by just not potty training her. Cause yuck, who would want to date that? Thing is, some one will -- and, by being "clever," you've guaranteed it's going to be the "wrong" guy....

I'd reconsider, personally.
Hey, if we're trading odd, actual names, my favorites have to be from a Cuban friend who grew up in Miami. He went to school with kids named: Usnavy, Malebaby, Femalebaby, and twins named Lemongello and Orangegello. (Just think about pronouncing them with a Cuban accent).

Finally, (not in Miami) there was the gal from South Africa who name is pronounced, with rough phoenitics: shə-thee-ed. Pretty, actually. Spelled: Shithead. Much less great.
