The Significance of 'Names'

[Raph]

I was wondering - What Names do other TiBBers like? For example, when you potentially reflect upon your future children's names - what pops up in your mind? Do you think about this a lot? Does it correlate at all with your BB favorites? Is it influenced by your daily endeavor; your general surroundings?

I personally like the names Matt, Simon and Anthony for boys, and Rachel for girls. Concurrently, Matt is the name of my BBUS favorite. Anthony and Rachel are two of my BBUK favorites. Although BB had no significance to my liking of these names - what if it unconsciously did? Also, Matt, Simon and Rachel all happen to be names of Jewish decent (I'm unsure about the name Anthony). I think reflecting upon all this is very intriguing. What about you lot? :hugesmile:

[Niall]

The name Finn always makes me think of fish. :S

[Lee.]

Yeah I like Jacob too.. and Isaac. I would have called my little boy James or John but don't like Jim , Jimmy or Jock which they would have become living in Scotland! I also liked Dominic but everbody told me I was just hormonal/insane so it kinda put me off.. Anyway.. I deceided on Samuel for boychild eventually

I don't really like any girls names and struggled naming my daughter.. eventually we came up with Lara which I love but there's not a lot that I'm keen on

[Lucy.]

Ohh yeah and I like Charlie for a girl or boy too

[Lee.]

I know somebody who has just called their baby Lettice... well I don't know them personally, but I know Lettice's uncle!
I don't know yet if it is pronounced the same way as "lettuce" or if it's Lettees?
I thought it was a made up name but apparently it is Gaelic (?)

[Z]

I would only name my children traditional names; such as Elizabeth or William, it's just not in my nature to accept people with made up or unconventional names... one of my friends from Uni is called Bean, for example, it puzzles me how parents can give their child such a bizarre name, she has to repeat herself every time she gets introduced to someone because they can't quite believe what they just heard. I don't plan on having kids so I've never really thought about names, but yeah it'd be a traditional name. I was originally going to be named Reg(inald) after my grandfather but my mum thought that was a cruel name to give a child of the 90s, so they stuck a G on the front haha!

Bean?? You're joking? That's the name on her birth certificat?! But that's nothing short of cruel!!

Another thing that parents seem to forget is initials. I know of someone who's children (not kids now) are called P.Ness and his sister is A.Ness.. That is not a joke by the way!! Completely true!!

[Beastie]

I like Henry and Kevin for boys. I also like William too eventhough it is a bit of a common name.

Henry is my favourite boy's name though!! :D

For girls.. it is harder to think of a name.. probably because there is so much choice!
I quite like Olivia! :)

[Z]

Yeah! She has a double barrelled first name, Bean is one of them; on her driving licence and everything! Oh and don't get me started on initials, mine are GMP... gimp!!! Ugh, nice planning!!

Ohh.. yeah I'd forgotten about that.I love Olivia.My friends three girls are called Rowan, Amber and Olivia and i alway think they all have such lovely names. Seeing as she is a good name picker, I asked her to think of a good name for my daughter... she came up with Willow. Eh no! :laugh:

[Lee.]

Hahahaha..(genuine lol) Sorry :blush:

So what's the other part of Bean's first name??

Bless you Raph! To be honest.. I do go off names if a person I don't like has that name. Sometimes your name reflects on the person? mmmmmm.

[Z]

Hahahaha..(genuine lol) Sorry :blush:

So what's the other part of Bean's first name??

Eloise, which isn't a great name either :/

[Beastie]

Ohh.. yeah I'd forgotten about that.I love Olivia.My friends three girls are called Rowan, Amber and Olivia and i alway think they all have such lovely names. Seeing as she is a good name picker, I asked her to think of a good name for my daughter... she came up with Willow. Eh no! :laugh:

Willow is quite nice!
Well I have Olivia sorted then. I like Henry, Kevin and William for boys.
Need to think of another girl's name. I would like 2 kids when I am older.. so need to think of another girl's name just in case I have 2 girls. Lol I am sad. :hugesmile: joke!

[Niamh.]

I love the names Hazel and Eve for girls, I briefly thought about Eve for my daughter but it sounds too much like my name

[Lee.]

Eloise, which isn't a great name either :/

Geez! So she's Bean-Eloise?or the other way round? Have her parents ever given a good reason for calling her Bean?
My mum nearly called me storm as there was an awful storm the night I was born plus the woman in the book she was reading in the hospital was called Storm!! I'm soooo glad she saw sense!! :laugh:

[Niamh.]

Eloise, which isn't a great name either :/

Kurt Cobains daughter is called Frances Bean:joker:

[Beastie]

I love the names Hazel and Eve for girls, I briefly thought about Eve for my daughter but it sounds too much like my name

Eve is nice! I did actually like "Adam and Eve" for a boy and a girl at one point! :hugesmile:

Ooo I have a Auntie Hazel! Hazel sounds cool!

[Beastie]

Bean?? MR BEAN!

[Z]

Geez! So she's Bean-Eloise?or the other way round? Have her parents ever given a good reason for calling her Bean?
My mum nearly called me storm as there was an awful storm the night I was born plus the woman in the book she was reading in the hospital was called Storm!! I'm soooo glad she saw sense!! :laugh:

Other way round! I was only vaguely listening when she explained the story behind her name, but something to do with "looking like a bean", I dunno if that meant on an ultrasound scan, or when she was born (how graphic!??!) or what, but something along those lines! Uff, Storm would have been an awful name. I mean, it's quite a powerful name, but imagine going through childhood with that name!

It just makes me cringe to hear unconventional baby names, it's something I can't help and I don't treat the person any different, but I have a hard time getting used to them. My older brother's been married for two years now and baby talk has been banded about for a while now, they jokingly suggested calling a baby Achilles, Swastika and many other piss take names... it worries me that some people genuinely consider things like Achilles in all seriousness!

[Niamh.]

Eve is nice! I did actually like "Adam and Eve" for a boy and a girl at one point! :hugesmile:

Ooo I have a Auntie Hazel! Hazel sounds cool!

Adam and Eve hahaha, they're both nice names though:joker:

[Beastie]

I also think Claire is a nice, underated name!

[Niamh.]

I also think Claire is a nice, underated name!

hhmmm, not too keen on it

[InOne]

I know a girl called Marely. Named after Bob Marley lol

[Beastie]

I bet Joe Joe likes the name Noel? :hugesmile:

[Niamh.]

I know a girl called Marely. Named after Bob Marley lol

wasn't that Will Smiths daughters name in I am Legend? I think that's a pretty cool name actually

[Lee.]

Eve is nice! I did actually like "Adam and Eve" for a boy and a girl at one point! :hugesmile:

Ooo I have a Auntie Hazel! Hazel sounds cool!

My sister's married name is Nutt.. She's definitely going for Hazel or Ima

Seriously? That's why they called her bean?? Geez!

My cousin was teaching in a primary school in a rough area of Glasgow and there was a child called Pocahontas and another one called Tia Maria!! FFS!!

[BBfan46]

Ben, Steven, Alex, Zac
Summer, Carmen, Rachael, Eva


We assosciate names with people and personalities so you're unlikely to like the name Ursula if you've come across one that's a grotty bastard.

[Stacey.]

Girls: Gemma, Hannah, Sarah, Katie.
Boys: James, Jack.

[Kerry]

I knew what I was going to call my daughter from a very young age. I always wanted to be a Mum and the name was always in my mind

If I had any other children I like Finley-Joe for a boy and Ava-Olivia or Ava-Mae for a girl

[King Gizzard]

Elijah or Isaac for a boy

Or Kasai cause thats my middle name and I wish it was my first :(

Don't know about a girl

[Tom]

I'd love to call my kids after my mum but calling them Maggie and John is bordering on child abuse and her parents names aren't much better (Barry and Jane)

I hate this new trend of 'quirky' names, it just makes your kids sound retarded, my kids will just be called normal likes like Lewis, Joe etc

[Kerry]

'Old fashioned' names are back 'in' again at the moment. I know many Lily's, Holly's, Archies, Lukes etc

Think the worst I've heard is a 'Leandra'. Oh and a lad called 'Blade'

[InOne]

I quite like Marie for a girl. Dunno about boys

[Stacey.]

The weirdest name I've heard for a girl is "Lovely". :L

[Jordan.]

Boys: Thomas C
Girl: Marge

:love:

[Kerry]

I suppose it doesn't get much worse than Gwenith Paltrows daughter 'Apple'

Why do celebs think weird names are a good thing? I admit I like quirky and slightly original but not bizarre

[Kerry]

The weirdest name I've heard for a girl is "Lovely". :L

Lovely?!?!

:joker:

[Stacey.]

Boys: Thomas C
Girl: Marge

:love:

LOL omfg.

[Stacey.]

Lovely?!?!

:joker:

Yeah :laugh: People tease her about it and things, but now I've got used to hearing it, then it's not that bad.

[AfroMullet]

Mari Juana :laugh: (whoever understands this is amazing. except Thomas C)

Blue Cheese, Purple Haze, Sour Diesel, Lemon and Thai Stick.
