I did, however, have an interesting discussion with one of my classes yesterday about creative baby names. It started because a student was presenting a project on Tiger Woods (we won't go into all his drama here), which led me to announce that I hope to name a child 'Bear' one day.
Bear Chapman.
Now, THAT, is a cute & cuddly name. A hot-boy name. A MAN's MAN name.
What do you think?
A few other goodies that came up in our discussion:
Note: These are actual names of people I "know."
- London Email -- The mother thought of this because her friend "emailed" her a list of potential names
- Mary Magdelene Moses
- Precious Snow White
- La-a (pronounced La-dash-a)
- Marijuana. (As in... "Press 1 for Janice, Press 2 for Marijuana.")
- Apurv. Just imagine it: "Hi, I'm Apurv." Poor kid.
What are some interesting names you've run into?
I want desperatly to name a son Inman or a daughter Kaydence Catherine. My hubby frowns on both but I think I may finally have started budging him on the girl name...not on Inman though :(

ReplyDeleteOH NO! Davey is going to be shattered. He really wants to name his first son Bear! No joke! How have we not talked about this before?!?!
ReplyDeleteOn a similar note, when a restraunt asks for my name I always tell them Slumber.
ReplyDelete"Slumber Party of 4, Slumber Party of 4"
