Tips When Selecting a Middle Name (or first name!):
Okay, first, let’s take a bit of a step back and go over some helpful and must-know tips for when you are selecting a middle name that *hopefully* will make the process go a bit smoother for you.
Brain dump any and all names That come to mind
Take a pen to paper or open a fresh document on your computer and brain dump every single name that comes to mind. Don’t pause or think too hard about if you actually like or don’t like the name, just write them all down. Take inspiration from this list!
Seriously – even if you write one and you think you hate it, it might give you inspiration for a letter you like, or syllables. Just write them all no matter what!
Add Any Favorite Names that you’ve stored in your notes app
Have a growing notes app in your phone with name ideas? Same here! I’ve had it since pretty much my first iPhone all those years ago 😂
Add any from that list in your phone that you love to this current list.
Think about any theme you might want
If you’re planning to have multiples this is something to consider now. Do you want a theme like flower or nature names, or want to stick with one letter or a certain number of syllables?
If you are only having one or don’t want to have a theme with all of your children, do you want to have a theme with this name, like first and middle have the same letter or something with boho vibes, etc.?
Go Through List (without your partner) and immediately eliminate any you don’t love
Do this by yourself so you’re not influenced by their opinion! Take a quick glance through and now give some thought to if you love or dislike any of the names. Be cutthroat! There are SO so so many names out there, the quicker you can eliminate any you’re not quite sure of, the better.
Unsure? Leave them in for now and we can go over them in the next part.
Say out loud with your selected first name and your last name and again eliminate any you don’t love
This is SO important, and probably a trick you’re well aware of, but say each name on this narrowed down list OUT LOUD.
Trust me, it helps so much with hearing the flow of the name and can help you identify any patterns you like (for example, you love 3 syllable middle names, certain letters together, etc.). If you listen to any tip at all, let it be this one!
Consider initials
Sometimes kids end up with unfortunate initials, and it might be worth taking into consideration. I mean, do you really want a kid running around with the initials A.S.S. or S.T.D.? Just give it a moment of thought 😂
Consider Nicknames
If you think you’ll call your baby by a nickname a lot of the time you should probably run through your list of names saying them out loud with the nickname as well.
Alternatively, if there’s a name you love but you don’t love the nickname of, that could be something to consider as well. Sometimes family/friends/whoever will call your child what they want to no matter what, so if you absolutely hate a nickname, keep that in mind!
Then go through list of narrowed down favorites with your partner
Once you’ve got your narrowed down lists of favorites, THEN take it to your partner, spouse, etc. Either hand them the list or read them out loud to them and see what you can further narrow down to. Reading out loud might be a better bet since you get to hear them out loud again (and that won’t hurt) and they can hear the names as well.
don’t tell anyone
This might be a slightly controversial opinion, but I personally think it’s a good idea to keep that name to yourself before baby is born.
Once you’ve got the name selected and BEFORE the baby is born, people feel free to share their opinions on it. Whether it’s that they know someone with that name they hate, they think the name sounds bad, or whatever it is, their opinion could potentially spoil how you and your partner feel about the name, which is what’s most important and all you should care about.
Once the baby is born, people are much more likely to keep those opinions to themselves, since it’s a done deal at that point!
My husband and I, although not pregnant, have a name picked out for a little girl. I want to shout it from the rooftops and tell everyone because I love it!! But I will 100% be keeping it to myself so no one spoils it. Especially considering how we have verrrrry few names we seem to agree on 😂
