I had the decision allll to myself.

Only because if it would've been a boy, I would've had no choice, as it would've been .William .Baron the 5th.

So we made a deal, if it's a girl, it's my choice, if it's a boy, we knew what it would be.

But now that we've had a girl, and her name is .Kayoni .Joilee, if we have another girl, her name(chosen together) would be .Kasia .Jhanelle. I wanted .Keoki .Jhanelle, but .Baron wasn't having it.

I just wanted to have .Oni and .Oki! I think it's effin adorable!!!
But .Kasia is just as beautiful!!

It was very important to him. And I think it will be special for the child to know that his/her dad picked the name.

He basically picked them out the same day we found out we were expecting. He said, "what about maya for a girl?" I said, "sure, that's beautiful". Then he said he wanted malcolm for a boy, which I didn't like. But it's his brother's name and it means alot to him.

If I could pick, I would go with ezekiel for a boy (my partner's father's name) and akira for a girl. But those names can be for my future babies. I want 11 kids!

Wow, 11 kids. Shocked

.Akira is a japanese boy's name, I think. But it's whatever you want to make it! She'll definitely be original!

We decided on .Olivia when we found out we were having a girl, and were arguing over the middle name. Every name I picked out .Aaron shot down, and the middle name he picked out I wasn't fond of.

So we compromised! He allowed me to change the spelling of her first name, from .Olivia to .Alyvia, and I let him keep the middle name. So her name is .Alyvia .Kaida. Kaida is a japanese girl's name that means "little dragon", and .Alyvia (.Olivia) means "peace", so her name means "peaceful little dragon"!

Now that she's here, her middle name suits her so well. She is a little dragon! Shocked

Victoria is one of the most beautiful names for a girl. I would have chosen victoria for her first name but I don't like the nick name vickie and I know people would have called her that so we settled for it as a middle name and I must say, brianne victoria has a nice ring to it Smile

That's one of the reasons I didn't want our daughter's name to be .Olivia. My mother in law wanted to call her "olive oil", and I said absolutely not. And my dad's wife wanted to call her .Livvy, and I hated that too. At least with .Alyvia, it gives her a *nice* nickname, .Aly.

My uncle doesn't let anyone call his son .Andy. We have always called him by his full name, .Andrew. I'm going to be the same way when we have a son, because his name will be .Christian. I don't want people calling him .Chris.

Brianne's name is gorgeous! Wink

.Jonny chose our baby's first name, .Jennifer.. And I chose .Michelle as her middle name because it's my sister's name.

For a boy i'd chosen .Matthew, and he couldn't think of any.. He really really wanted a girl so he didn't have any boy name ideas!

yeah, and it means intellegence.

But seriously, imagine naming your son akira. Here in canada, it might be seen as a bit feminine.

Chris &.I both picked out the name if the baby is a girl.. I chose .Evelyn as the first name, which he *loved* &he chose the middle name, .Rei.. Rei is his favorite character from his favorite anime... Lol! Lucky for him it sounds beautiful with .Evelyn..

If it's a boy, we can't agree at all, &he finally said "you know what, you can just pick the first name if it's a boy." .So .I'm trying to decide what name .I want to use. I'm leaning heavily towards .Skyler.. &the middle name will be .Chris's middle name.. Michael.

I haven't watched the whole series.. I love anime, but it just doesn't do it for me, really. My favorite anime is probably .Wolf's .Rain.. Have you seen that one? It's so amazingly good.

I wanted to! Our cable is so unbelievably crappy, so I wasn't able to catch it on tv, and we can't afford to pay for the dvd's (it's so expensive!), but when I tried to download an episode it turned out to be porn.

*sigh*

my favorites would have to be .X, .Fushigi .Yuugi, .Angel .Sanctuary, .Ceres, and .Chobits. Aaron likes .Naruto (the unedited stuff, not that cartoon network crap) and .Bleach.

We used to watch a *lot* more when we were younger. Funny how the real world catches up with you... Neutral
