    I don’t know if this is weird but I would love a baby name list inspired by the Harry Potter series. Jk Rowling came up with some amazing names e.g Remilda, Ginevra, Luna etc. Would be interesting maybe ? Just a thought.

    Ahhh! Thank you so much for answering my dilemma! I really like Oswin. It’s unique but goes along with a lot of current trends in the US. Ozzy could be a cute nickname. I’ve watched your name videos for so many years. You are my favorite. Thank you!

    • @SJ_Strum
      @SJ_Strum  6 років тому +1

      Ah you're welcome - thank you so much for watching :-)) Oswin is a new favourite since I found it looking for you - I love the nickname Ozzi & in sweden they do Ossi which is just slightly different but super cute! x

    • @lauren8627
      @lauren8627 6 років тому +1

      It depends on the country. In Australia having a nickname of 'Ozzie' would be strange. Maybe 'Winnie' instead 😂 (love that as a girls name!).

  • @ANNtique
    @ANNtique 6 років тому +34

    Guy Tobias John Sharp
    Guy Sharp does have a very grown up sound to it. Tobias Sharp has such nice flow or if you like the meaning of Tobias you could go with the lesser used Tobin. Tobin Sharp sounds fabulous to me!

    • @SJ_Strum
      @SJ_Strum  6 років тому +4

      Tobin is lovely x

    • @flicksharp6746
      @flicksharp6746 6 років тому +3

      Thank you! This was my dilemma, the problem with Tobias as a first name is it's my husband's best friend, so I don't know if that would get confusing having two of them!

    • @ANNtique
      @ANNtique 6 років тому +2

      TOBIN is a version of Tobias and I love it so much, it would honour the friend without being the same

  • @rochelleclark3169
    @rochelleclark3169 6 років тому +76

    My name means "little rock" and my husband's name is Peter meaning "stone" so I think it would be so cute to have a bunch of little "pebbles" as our friend put it. Any suggestions for rock/stone/mineral names?

      Bekah Brooks kids will always find a way for something to be unfair! Although it’s nice to have children with names that sound nice together, at the end of the day they are individuals and when they grow up their names won’t be grouped together with their siblings any more.
      I didn’t want both my children to have names starting with the same letter but it worked out that way. If we had decided to have more children I wouldn’t have limited myself to choosing names starting with that same letter

    For Luljeta:
    I don't know if this is a little out there but Fox as a middle for a girl can really add a dash of unexpected, naturey, spunkiness. The short one syllable would also work with Luljeta being a 3 syllable name.

    I would love a video on welsh and or cornish names. My favourites are Lowenna, Elowen and Lowri to name a few. I am from cornwall and lived in wales and and some of them especially girls are gorgeous but also unique in terms with the rest of the country but i think have a lot of popular elements to them

    My daughter is 24 years old. We didn’t know what we were having, and the entire pregnancy we couldn’t come up with a boy’s name. Wish you’d been around then. My other kids came to us through testamentary guardianship (one) and foster care (three). They’re all girls and they all came with their names already. I think we’re just lucky there were no duplicates!

      I love Biblical names, but people can't deal with them lol We have Ezekiel (Zeke) Orrin (I thought I'd call him Ori, but we don't lol I found out last year that Orin is a Herbrew girls name, but everyone where we live has a grandpa, or great uncle called Orin, or Oren 😄) and Zipporah (we call her Zippy for short) it's not the original spelling, as I thought nobody would be able to pronounce it with the T at the beginning 😄 So I looked up phonetic spellings, and people still can't manage 😄 I love Hepzibah 😍 My sister has Isaac, Jemima (when Job got his new family, his first daughter was called Jemima) Abel, and her last one is Isabella (obviously not Biblical though) my other sister has Jerusha, Tabitha, and Gabriel 😊 I love Z names, so I also love Zeebedee, Zachariah, and not a Z named, but I love Nathaniel 😊

    Loved this baby name Monday video.
    I was thinking about the lady who has ‘Evan Gabriel’ and looking for a girl name to go with it. Obviously I love your suggestion of ‘Amber’ having a little Amber myself. But as she likes Sienna, I remember Kerry Conway doing a baby name video on her UA-cam about her naming her first daughter Sienna and she really liked ‘Summer’ originally but her husband wasn’t keen and googled names which sounded similar to that which is how they got to ‘Sienna’. Once again, I’m biased, having a ‘Summer’ myself. 😃 they do have similarities though with beginning with ‘s’, the double letter in the middle and same sound at the end. How about Summer Grace??? Xx
