Cute NicknamesPosted by Cute Nicknames on August 20th, 2018 Cute Nicknames Another problem is the baby name may rhyme with another word which kids may pick up on at school, someone called Duke might be called Duke the Puke for example. You may also consider whether the name takes on a new meaning if joined to the surname. Classic examples are Ivor Biggin or Rusty Bracket. If you want baby names that are unique then you may want to invent some of your own, it could be an amalgamation of two other names. However, don't make the name too wacky, it may sound good now but your child may not appreciate it when they are older. For the same reason, be careful of baby names that are suddenly fashionable. You may want to look up what the name actually mean, this is especially important in say the Chinese culture where they put as much importance on the meaning of the name as to how it sounds. What may have a nice sounding name could have a very strange meaning indeed, or vice versa. Bear in mind that baby names can determine how they will be perceived before somebody meets them. If say you are meeting somebody called Charles or Bartholomew, you may expect them to look and speak differently to if they were called Dave or Nick. Try and pick a name which you think will suit your child and their environment. Like it? Share it! |
