Baby names

Preston read bits of my blog for the first time yesterday and he saw some of your ideas on "P" names. So, he wanted to post the ones he likes and get some comments. Not that he really cares what peoples opinions are, but he would have fun reading your HONEST opinions. We haven't names her yet, and we have 16 weeks to go, so please, be brutal

Petra - is his number one so far. I don't like it.

Pepper - we both thought it was 'cute' but would be an exellent name to make fun of...and reminds me of a little dog. Lori and Debbie hate it.

Piper - help me make Preston realize it is not a boys name.

Thanks!

Sorry Amber but here's my brutal honesty,

I Hate Petra - it also sounds too "ethnic" to me.
Also don't like Pepper, not a big fan of names after spices
And Piper, well reminds me of an old man smoking his pipe.

Maybe I should be saying sorry Preston. Good Luck though!

K I like Petra only cuz someone in our ward named their little girl that and she is cute and after you know it as a name it's really cute. Pepper, I honestly was kidding about that one lol. And Piper, I like. Dustin has a cousin who named their little girl that. Hope that helps!

Tell him to go watch Coyote Ugly. Piper Perabo. Hello. Not a boy. Also if he gets to pick the initials you should get to pick the name. It's all about the compromise, Preston.

I think Piper is my favourite of all of them. Piper is absolutely darling - girlie wihout being obnoxiously cute. I love it. Petra is probably one you need time to let it grow on you.

Or there's Penny. Penny's cute too.

Or Poppy.

My vote's for Piper. I love it. I've never heard of any boys named Piper, but more than a few girls with the name. We talked about the others. I also like Paisley or Presley. Just throwing it out there.

I like Piper and NOT A BOYS NAME. I would feel really bad for a boy named Piper. Yikes. I also like Penny. Older name but you wouldn't have doubles like some of the more popular ones. Good luck with the name game.

Some people suggested Penny, It sounds cute with Adeline. I thought that Preston might like Presley, since it would be a little girl version of his name. Paisley is also cute. I am not a huge fan of Petra, it is kind of ethnic sounding. But there are some more cute ones like Paige, Phoebe and Piper is cute too. Good Luck! Let us know what you choose, I'm excited to hear. You also mentioned Pacey, that one is super cute too!

petra is not good. Sorry preston, and pepper not that great either. Piper is by far the cutest one, but is very popular right now. I know 4 babies with that name 1 and under.

Ok Preston, Piper is SO not a boys name. And to be honest, I so dislike Petra. You could do Penny and short for Penelope.

I LOVE Presley,Piper, Patrice and Payton. Good Luck!!
