How do you choose your child's name?
I have five children.
The eldest is Graciellee, a combination of the names of my three students.
Next is the twins, whom I named Klynne and Krissia. I did not expect that I'm going to have twins so I prepared a name for a male, Kelvin Kline and female, Krissia. These are brand names of clothes, although I changed the spelling. So when they were born, I just changed Kelvin Kline to Klynne.
Next is Sashawnee. I got this from the production staff of the movie that I have watched during the time that I was pregnant with her.
The youngest is Hans Schanni. Hans is a scientist while Schanni is the son of Johann Strauss, the famous waltz composer, who at the age of seven already composes songs same with his father.
How about you?
Do you have considerations when you choose the name of your children?

I consider the meaning of the name because long time ago somebody told me that the names our parents to choose for us could actually shape our future.

@magallon Indeed that's why I chose my son's name very carefully.

I do not have any kids but if I do, my boyfriend and I randomly talked it through. We like the name Aiden (for a boy) and Madelyn (for a girl). My boyfriend's name starts with "A" and mines "M".

So you love two names for each of your children.
In my case , it is only the youngest who has two short names. I want their names to be short so that they'll have no difficulty in filling up papers.
I have a long first name so sometimes I find it difficult or time consuming in filling up papers.
