Quite an interesting mix of ideas. <BR/><BR/>Devona~My grandmother's married initials were LBS. For some time she was secretary to a man whose initials were FEW. So every piece of correspondence that went out carried the line at the bottom: FEW/lbs.Queen of Carrotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03193758647591339890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831804.post-1154867918717314512006-08-06T05:38:00.000-07:002006-08-06T05:38:00.000-07:00My mom's initials were BAD.

I had a future daugther named for years and then.... Well, I got married and by right, the father has a part to play in this. He doesn't like the name or anything else I can come up with. So we are stuck. -rlrRachellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07844171813345071009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831804.post-1154814966586709782006-08-05T14:56:00.000-07:002006-08-05T14:56:00.000-07:00Well, yeah, I wouldn't do that.

An easy way out is to give the kid two middle names even if you can't fit both on the birth certificate. This gives the added plus of using more cool names!<BR/><BR/>We like the baby name game too! After our niece was (we felt) unfortunately named under the influence of heavy pregnancy hormones, we decided to come up with a list before we conceived. We came up with names for the first 9 kids(!). <BR/><BR/>5 kids later, we are sticking with the plan! My kids actually love the idea of "knowing" who the next kid will be (Luke or Catherine).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5831804.post-1154726201299766832006-08-04T14:16:00.000-07:002006-08-04T14:16:00.000-07:00If you ask me, ERR is safer than naming your child...If you ask me, ERR is safer than naming your child "Chance," which has all kinds of implications of accidents. Besides, how many people are going to know what "err" means, anyway?<BR/><BR/>I'm stuck on AD- names, all of which are invalidated now because we've actually used one, and I'm not condemning myself to two sound-alike names among my children.<BR/><BR/>As long as you protect your child from the more embarrassing three-word initials, you're probably all right. (I read a book once where the main character's name was Beverly Ursula Teresa Trapp... obviously concocted for the sake of the story, but a shadow on her life nonetheless.)<BR/><BR/>-- SJthe Joneseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15854341910963353734noreply@blogger.com
