I have a friend who wants to name her child----and i'm not lieing---- Prism 1000. At first I thought she was joking, but I found out that her mother was going to name my friend that, but the girl's dad talked her out of it and my friend liked that it was soo "unique." So she's gonna name her first daughter Prism 1000. My friend ended up being named Cierra Marie Chanel Antonia L*****.
If I had been a boy, my name was going to be Samuel Anthony---yuck! Lol. My mom had also told me that my name was originally going to be Naomi, but she thought that my name had too many biblical references (b/c my middle name is Ruth and my last name is also a person in the bible), so she changed my name to Vanessa. I kinda wished she had kept Naomi, I like that name a lot more than Vanessa.....especially since I constantly have to spell it...seriously, how hard is it to spell Vanessa? I understand some people spell it differently, but dang.
I will not name my child:
--Amanda
--Lindsey
--Ashley
--Mary (although I do have the name Maria as a possible name for my future children..lol)
--Martha
--Laura
--Julie
and a few others only because they are very common. I do like the more traditionally "Hispanic" names, even if many of them are common, but I just can't imagine naming my child one of the above names----don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with them, it just isn't to my choosing!
I also get soured on potential names when i meet people with the same name. For example: At one point I ADORED the name Nayeli, but when i was on a young life trip, I met a girl named Nayeli and she was not a nice person, and that soured the name for me!! lol.
