Naming your children?

My fiance is a US Marine and when I found out I was pregnant with my first daughter he decided to clean out the closet. He was getting rid of his old camoflauge and out of the blue asked what I thought of the shortened version of camoflauge. I liked it because it was different so we went with it. I got a tattoo the day before we found out that I was pregnant with her so her middle name was named after my tattoo, it's also her birth flower. Our second daughters name we found in a book and liked the way it sounded with her sisters name. Both starting with the K sound, both 4 letters, and 2 syllables. Her middle name is also her birth flower.

That was a lovely idea to let your 9 year old daughter help in choosing a name for her siblings. I would never have thought of that in a million years. I just liked the name which I gave to my first child but her second name is my mum's name. I also liked the name which I gave to my second child and his second name is my husband's name. I used the scottish version of my husband's name when my third child was born and his second name is my dad's name.

We did not manage to get a consensus on choosing our son's name. As a consequence our son has two names. I wanted to name my son after my late grandpa and she wanted another name. Thank God both names sound well in the ear so we opted of having both names as a first name.

well my oldest was named for my grandmother , mother an me thats the theresa part an the lousie is her grandma on her fathers side of the family an sarah is named after her aunt/godmother an great grandma an her middle name is after my sister lynn and yes I love there names

Hi ya Anne18 As the father of my children (lets call him for arguements sake) is Arabic we went with Arabic names but I wanted the first one to have a name that English speaking people would also be able to say and then the next child got named after a muslim prophet but I didn't want to call him Mohammed because I thought he would have problems at school and the third we took ages to name right up until the day before we had to register him and I think my (hopefully soon to be) ex husband plucked a name virtually out of the air and we went with it!
