Please suggest names for my GODCHILD-TO-BE who shall be arriving in the next fortnight or so.
I have suggested many which my godchild's mother-to-be has shamelessly shot down, drat her
As many as you want.
Girls and Boys.
Also if there are any copyright issues let me know. Chances are that I will be stealing the name and taking credit anyways.
Shakti for a girl. Boy - blah :D mebbe something random ;)
ReplyDeletei am reminded of the Manhattan credit card ad :)
ReplyDeleteBEWARE: By asking such a question to someone who has spent 18 months labouring over names, you are putting yourself in danger of being flooded with them!!! But here's a short list of my favourites..
ReplyDeleteMind you.. I like run-of-the-mill simple names, as long as they are sweet and strong!
Boy names:
Aditya, Ishan, Vikram, Rohan, Yash, Yuvraj
Girl names:
Ananya, Sanjana, Maitri, Namya
Good luck!
Boy. Girl. Oiyou. Abey. Listen.
ReplyDelete...come on, make the kid's life interesting.
New ideas:
ReplyDeleteAfter famous bloggers? lots will volunteer their names. Worst case, go with unisex sounding "??!"
Or as an earlier discussion went, name them after fonts.
Boy: Arial, Girl: Helvetica
[PS: We tried the latter with b50, he didn't agree.]
Nandini - Boys are much more difficult no for some reason?
ReplyDeleteYoung manu - stop talking like a branter and suggest!
Go Shachii Go. ALl have been passed on. Some more please thank you.
?!?! Cant do those unfortunately. Those are the mother's names.
Mo - the artist formerly known as questionmark? and no tilotamma too thank you pls
Cynderella, What's wrong with Tilottama? It's a wonderful name.
ReplyDeleteElse, I volunteer mine.
Boy - Vyaas (my elder son)
ReplyDeleteGirl - Ananya (a cousin's daughter. Regular imp)

ReplyDeleteHave you seen that Russell Peters clip with the name "!xobile"? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yj-1kp777NM
Shachii has suggested both my name and my brother's... can do no better than that!
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had cool names as well.
ReplyDeletebtw, are all of us giving you names with the right religious background ?
ReplyDeleteGuy - Kaustubh
Gal - Rohini, Mayuri, Poonam
I know more than one male Kaustabh, and plenty of female ones. Avoid the bi-sex names, do.
ReplyDeleteCynic,
ReplyDeleteWould the kid be saying Hi, I am XYZ and my name was suggested by ABC ? Like sponsored feature films
Names: Male:Siddharth(common,nevertheless)
Female:Anagha
Nikhil aint bad either :|
-Nikhil

ReplyDeleteGirl: Jhankhana
Boy:Would they like any of the Eshes? u know,Dinesh,Mahesh,Rajesh,..:)And, Anmol is a nice name,too.

On the humour side:
If it's twins: Jignes(h) and Jigisha..typical Gujju style..
I like Tanay, and Vikram, and Varun even.
ReplyDeleteFor the girls, um, Aditi, Anita and Bhavna.
Mo - Tilotamma is good comes as an adult like draupadi - can you imagine a mite with a handle like that? Besides i cant spell it.
ReplyDeleteNaren - vyas has been reccomended. Girl is name of scary alpha femme *shudders*
Thanatos - your suggestion may determine the life and personality of the child. ( check kabalarians) - isnt that gift enuf?
Perakath - all cool names have been slapped down already. sigh. people have no creativity.
Satish - yup right religious background it is.
ReplyDeletePerakath - yup those are strictly avoidable - knew a male ashwini and aruni. Also names such as Ishit ! ( I know, i KNOW)
