Whether you want to go the traditional way or have something unique, we’ve gathered great ideas on how to choose a name for your daughter. Read on!
Four Unique Ways To Choose A Name For Your Baby Girl
1. Sound
Think about how the name will sound on your daughter. Is the name pleasant to hear or does it sound harsh? Most importantly, think if it will go well with the last name.
2. Uniqueness
Parents often look for unique baby girl names to make their child stand out. But sometimes, an unusual name can bring your child’s name unwanted attention. Think about the mispronunciations of the name your daughter might be subjected to!
3. Significance
Research the meaning of the name to find a perfect one for your daughter. Several names are hugely popular, but have unpleasant meanings.
4. Pick A Name That Ages Well
When you are looking through cute baby girl names for your daughter, imagine her at a job interview, in a professional situation or giving a presentation to a client. The name might sound cute at her preschool years, but may seem annoying in the adulthood.
Common Mistakes While Selecting A Baby Name And Ways To Avoid Them
1. Experimenting With The Name’s Spelling
You could be less creative with the spelling of your baby’s name. The US National Bureau of Economic Research states that teachers expect less from students who have names with creative spellings. They also give less attention to them.
2. Starting With The Middle Name
This is one of the silliest mistakes ever. The middle name should be in the middle and not in the first place, no matter how much you love it.
3. Keeping It A Surprise
There’s absolutely no reason for keeping your baby girl’s name a surprise. We’d suggest you to get your list run through your friends and families, but not too many people.
4. Quirky
If you are thinking of selecting a quirky name, think how the name will age. It may be one of the coolest and latest baby girl names today but will it still sound after 10 years?
