Oh! Really!!!

People do have same parameters in naming like traditions,personal faith,horoscopes and all.The most interesting thing about naming a person is , while naming it just looks like a personal choice of parents but later on its a public issue because its the public who utter that name more!!!!

Well going by logic a name would not matter as they say a Rose by any name would still smell the same. But a sweetness of thae way it sounds adds value to it.

Similarly a name qualifying a particular attribute would only add to the value/personality of the person. Soits always nice to have a pleasing name.

Wellsaid๐Ÿ‘

Silly phonic which is sometimes given too much of importance....๐Ÿ˜Š

How important can the choice of name for a child be? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜•๐Ÿ˜•

It can be anything as long as it doesnt end up embarrassing the child. So for eg.. you can have name like Ambadas for a boy who is in a traditional circle but cant have a pitambardas for somebody here in the US..๐Ÿ˜Š


What weird names have you come across? ๐Ÿ˜‰

Non-christain american names are all wierd... So u can call somebody table or a chair or april, may, june, july... or any damn thing that suits u..๐Ÿ˜†unlike in india where we have a formal naming mechanism to make sense......

Olivia and Jack are the the most popular names for babies born in England and Wales in 2006.๐Ÿ˜Š

Figures from the Office for National Statistics show Olivia replaces Jessica as the top name for girls. Jack remains in first place for boys for the 12th year in a row.๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜Š

Harry, Alfie and Harrison have risen strongly within the top 50, as have Ruby, Lily and Jasmine. Out of the top 50 go Libby, Aimee and Niamh along with Toby, Brandon and Charles.๐Ÿ˜ณ

๐Ÿ˜• How did you decide what to call your child? Can a 'good' or 'bad' name influence your character? Do you have, or have you encountered, a strange or unusual name? What names would you like to see become popular again? Send us your views. ๐Ÿ˜‰

As and when I will use the town name - so names like winchester, lexington,.in the true american spirit....๐Ÿ˜†.. ok i ws kidding i would pick the book of 1000 indian names on parenting .com.. and pick one only with 3 letter mono-syllable...Raj, Jai, jui...pui,....๐Ÿ˜†

Waht say ????๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜•๐Ÿ˜ณ

Not much yet whatever li'l is there is extremely important to ignore. Your name gives you your identity to this world, your rights as a citizen.

To burden a child with a really odd name is unfair. The parents can atleast try to see to it that it is contemporary.

What weird names have you come across? ๐Ÿ˜‰

Haven't come across any weird names, however, I've heard plenty of weird surnames. What may be a beautiful name in one language or region can be considered weird or might have an odd meaning somewhere else. My name 'Soumya' is a common guy's name in Bengal pronounced as 'Soumyo' but everywhere else in India it's a girl's name pronounced as 'Soumyaa' or 'Sowmyaa'. It's all relative.

๐Ÿ˜• How did you decide what to call your child?

Haven't decided yet.

Can a 'good' or 'bad' name influence your character?

Nah, I don't think so. In our school we had one guy named Vivekananda, and he was the worst bully and obnoxious guy in the whole batch.

Do you have, or have you encountered, a st range or unusual name?

I have heard some unusual names but all of them has some meaning, so not so strange. I know one girl whose name is Nabagata, which means 'newcomer'.
