Naming a Baby Girl

Posted on August 5, 2009 - by Bradley Hebdon

 

Since we’ve found out we’re having a baby girl, we can now focus finding that perfect baby girl name.  It’s an incredibly overwhelming task, and the easiest way to approach this might be via the process of elimination.  For starters, we’re not interested in names that: are too common or too uncommon, have funky spelling, come from the Victorian era, contain negative connotations thanks to nutcase celebrates or other people we’ve met, hard to say or remember, are akin to fruit, and come from New Guinea.

After browsing around on the web, these are the Top 10 Girl Names for 2008:

  1. Emma
  2. Isabella
  3. Emily
  4. Madison
  5. Ava
  6. Olivia
  7. Sophia
  8. Abigail
  9. Elizabeth
  10. Chloë

We’d love to hear what names you like.

    can’t used Brianna – sounds too much like an indian rice curry dish
    madison is overused
    we had a dog called chloe so i don’t think that’s approriate
    have to consider how people will shorten names as well – i.e. with Victoria – will you mind your daughter being called Vicki?
    I like Lauren personally. Or how about, Apple, or Kirsten

    Olivia is nice. It’s not on your top 10 but how about Amelie?

    Someone at work name their kid Cyncyre. I don’t even know how to begin pronouncing this name. Could it be sincere spelled all wacky? Knowing her it could be French. hehe…
