I know a girl named Appelonia and another name Pheafresia (FEE-aff-REE-see-A).

I think the second one's cute. its an amalgamation.

I have heard of a Precious before.
I can't stand that name, especially after my cousin pointed out that people tend to call children "precious" (not "cute" or "pretty", etc.) when they're not too cute. I don't like "Princess" either. Man, when you name children things like that, they turn out to be the absolute opposite. LOL.

Chile some people is put dey chirren up in ya face an when dey ain't cute I just say"ooh he is so special BOL".But people don't realise how important names are. Like I would neva name my child Damien which is derived from the word Demon.

How about SHELTER

Special... LOL. That's so OBVIOUS, man. Hahahaha.

I was trying to remember the name of a girl from Girl Guides. They called her Demon-ah, but that wasn't her name. It was close though. Horrible.

Sunflower... PLEASE tell me "Shelter" is not someone's NAME. PLEASE...

Parents need to realize that the name they give their child will go with them for the rest of thier lives!

SMT at the G-H-E-T-T-O fabulous names!

We little understand the effects of a name on a child. Or on those who have to work with them .. teachers etc, tryna figger out how to spell certain names, pronounce or remember them. I kno a boy name Shaquille Oniel ____, an a girl named Shaquille. I have some neices I only remember by their initials. Sad!

Me fadders name be ELWOOD. :jawdroop:

The Bahamian custom of taking half the mother's name and half the father's name can result from some funny combinations. I grew up with a girl called Lentitia (Len--tish-ia).

I have a friend who when he was having children, gave them names like Anita, Anne and Laurie. His reasoning was that when his daughters grow up and start applying for jobs, he didn't want the employers to know that they were black until they came in for an interview. That way their resumes would be judged more fairly than someone name Tanishaqueisha.

But parents got to be careful with things even like initials. When I was adopted, my initials changed to T.I.T. and it caused me a lot of grief at boarding school.

The funniest name that I ever saw was when my friend and I were on a road trip through a German community in Northern Ontario. We popped into the local bowling alley because it had a restaurant in it. As you walked past the bowlers, the score sheets were under an overhead projector type of thing so you could see how the bowlers were doing. One of the bowlers was a teenage girl. Her name would be perfect in an Austin Powers movie. Without a word of a lie, she was named Iona Kuntz.

I think it shows lack of identity and creativity when we have to resort to naming our children after celebrities/athletes.

Look for a name that has meaning or is significant and also one that will nt cause your child to be stereotyped. Also remember by first grade they have to know how to write/spell their name!
