1.1 | see also | EXIT26::SOULE | | Thu May 15 1986 07:59 | 10 |
| There is a related conference on PARENTING. Note 7.* concerns itself
with the naming of a baby; both first and last names. The later
is a special consideration for those mother's that kept their maiden
name, hyphenated theirs with their husbands, or made up a new one.
I believe that there is even a discussion on how to handle twins.
KP7 or Select to enter the conference on EXIT26::PARENTING.

1.2 | help! | GIGI::TRACY | | Thu Jul 17 1986 17:52 | 4 |
| NOTES is new to me. BABYNAMES is a great idea. But how do I create
a new note for a new name?!
Tracy
|
1.3 | Use WRITE | 8672::RINESMITH | RAdisk bug buster | Fri Jul 18 1986 09:42 | 4 |
| Use WRITE and after you've entered your thoughts, NOTES will prompt
you for the title to your note like it does when you use the REPLY
commmand. Of course you can always type HELP anytime you need
it at the NOTES> prompt.
|
1.4 | | NCMWVX::WARRENS | | Mon Jul 21 1986 16:11 | 13 |
| As .3 said, if you want to start a new base note, use the WRITE
command. All I ask is that the title of the note (you will be prompted
for the title) is the name that the note talks about. (This may
not apply in all cases I realize).
If you want to adda note to a currently existing base note, you
want to type REPLY at the prompt. You had to do this to create
the note asking for help. Again, the reply can be titled and the
system will prompt you for it.
You are welcome to add any and all notes that you wish to.

| NOTICE:
I am about to leave the face of the Earth - or so that is what all
of my veteran SWS residency friends tell me.
I am going to go on my FIRST residency on Monday 9/15/1986. It
will be 6 months or who knows how long......
As such I will not be able to moderate this notes file as actively
as I have been. And certainly will not be available during the
day for any system, conference management activities.
So far, with the exception of the beginning of the conference, we
have not had any problems with the system relating to this conference.
(At least none reported to me).
This may or may not continue, I hope it does.
I am writing this note as a warning to all BABYNAMES noters that
to the best of my ability, BABYNAMES WILL STAY ON THE AIR. but
I am in a field office, geared to demos, projects and the ilk.
With me not in the office, people tend to not ask if they can blow
things away, etc.
So, if you can't get to BABYNAMES, I may not be able to fix it for
a while, or even know about it. If things get blown away, they
might really be blown away. And in general, mail to me (while always
welcome and encouraged) may not have much immediate effect or affect
on the conference.
Now with all of my disclaimers aside, I don't see any reason why
anything will happen. I hope to institute some backup procedures
independant of the sometimes frequent ones we do for the system
in general, and I plan on being an active noter almost daily. I
just can't prromise anything.
So continue to enjoy - just don't pounce if something goes wrong
and doesn't get resolved immediately.
Thank you in advance for your understanding and future patience.

| Randy,
Did you have your babies yet? I guess by now you would, unless your
wife's late...
I'm getting married this october 3rd....If I ever had twin girls,
I'd name them Ashley and Amber. I love the name Ashley and will
probably name my first girl that. Boys..well, y'know how names
remind you of people you know...Randy reminds me of a good friend
and I've always liked it.
There's a tradition in my Italian family (most Italians second or
third generation still keep up this tradition) as far as naming
the eldest male. The way it works is the first and second name is
reversed every generation...ie: My grandfathers name is Charles
Salvatore Saranita, My father's is Salvatore Charles Saranita,
my Bother's is...you guessed it, Charles Salvatore Saranita.
Interesting? My mother's family, on the other hand has different
tradition...only a few generations old. I'm only second generation
Irish on her side and at least one girl in each family has a first
name that ends in "een".
My name is Loreen, my mom's, Eileen...we also have Kathleen, Coleen,
Darleen, and Marleen. (Most of the familie's still in Ireland so
dont know everyone's name)
Last but not least...I've always been very proud of my sir name
(Italians usually are) but soon I'll have to give it up for
a Slavian name. Yes, I thought of hyphenating, but could you
imagine my checks...
Loreen Rose Saranita-Kobilarcsik
good luck with the Father career.

Yes the twins were born June 1, 1986 (6 days before my daughter's 3
year birthday - talk about hectic).
Dylan Gene was born first, Braden Richard was born 26 mintes later.

| It has come to my attention that my network link to Minneapolis
is blasted, and know one knows why.
I don't know if anyone can access this node or not, i only know
I can't get out.
So, even though you probably can't read this, I know about the problem.
I will try to post this note in the conferences notefile.

| RANDY,
I HOPE YOU ARE ABLE TO READ THIS NOTE. I AM NEW TO DEC AND TO
NOTES AND SOON TO BE NEW TO BABIES. THIS IS A TEST TO SEE IF I HAVE
LEARNED HOW TO USE NOTES. MY LAB TEST ON BABIES WILL BE LATE IN
MARCH IF EVERY THING GO'S ACCORDING TO SCHEDULE. WITH A LAST NAME
LIKE SMITH, MY WIFE AND I THOUGHT THAT WE NEEDED A STRANGE FIRST
NAME (LIKE HUNTER , WHICH IS MINE) FOR OUR FIRST CHILD. AS MOST
OF YOU PROBABLY KNOW, NAMING A CHILD IS A TRIAL AT BEST TO KEEP
EVERY ONE HAPPY. I HAVE ENJOYED READING THRU THE NOTES AND WILL
CONTINUE TO SEE IF ANY ONE ELSE HAS ANY IDEAS.
HAPPY BABYING
HUNTER SMITH

1.10 | BABYNAMES back on the air | NCMWVX::WARRENS | Would Spock write JCL? | Wed Feb 25 1987 09:58 | 22 |
| Welcome, Hunter, to BABYNAMES...
And good luck to naming and parenting.
Your notes test worked fine. I would suggest not using all capital
letters in notes however, it looks like you're shouting - a point
in general in notes and electronic mail. However, no misinterpretation
taken in BABYNAMES, Babies are something to shout about!
---
For the rest of you.
I have just been able to come into this file from another node on
the network, So I suspect (as evidenced by Hunter's note) the rest
of you can get access too.
Thus no announcement will be made in conferences.
Enjoy the names

1.11 | BABYNAMES back from the Hospital | NCMWVX::WARRENS | Would Spock write JCL? | Fri Jul 24 1987 09:57 | 21 |
| The EASYNET_CONFERENCES notefile listed BABYNAMES off the air, but...
BABYNAMES should be available again. You probably have been able
to get to it for a couple of weeks, but I haven't been able to stay
connected to EASYNET_CONFERENCES long enough to publish this.
A lot of system things have changed. We are now on a MicroVAX II
sys5 config (up from a VAX 780) with a couple of disks and 16MB
(up from 4MB).
The network communications now go directly through Chicago rather
than through Minneapolis - a savings of 2 or 3 hops at least.
Additionally I am told the network line should be more stable for
a couple of reasons, it is faster and we are not sharing a stat
mux with higher priority terminal traffic.
You know the old saying: 'More babies, more names, more notes!'
Enjoy

April 1 (no joke), the office that houses the computer will be

| Hello,
I am not about to become a parent, or anything like that. But I
do consider my name to be fairly unusual, it is Nadine, and can
be pronounced in a number of ways. I would be interested if anyone
out there knows anything about it's origin.
Regards

1.25 | Don't know about the origin, but... | EDUHCI::WARREN | | Tue Apr 12 1988 11:34 | 5 |

| network up, kinda.
As of yesterday, the network came back alive out here to Wisconsin,
(you know, 'When you say WIIIIIIIS-cons-sin, you've said it all!')
The network link is very shakey and probably slow, we got burned
in Chicago, and they have some 55,000 phone lines to worry about,
I bet ours is low on the old totem pole.
But, slow is better than none, and the future may be brighter.
I have noticed a few notes in this first topic that appear to be
associated with a different topic. i wont move them, because i
couldn't fguess at their true identity.
But a word to the wise.
If you wish to answer or comment to a note whether it is note NN.0
or NN.1, NN.2, etc just use the command REPLY. Type the REPLY a
the NOTES> prompt while still reading the note or reply that you
wish to comment on.
If you want to start a new conference topic, perhaps a new name,
a new questions, a new subject use the command WRITE.
Thanks

1.28 | Twins - how do I get some!! | USWAV1::BRADISH | | Wed Jun 08 1988 15:58 | 13 |
| Everyone in my family has kids (not me yet), but we have some different
names -- Johnna Autumn, Alyssa, and Chelsea (all girls).
But Randy, I wanted to mention something about the twins. My boss
has twin boys about age 8. The parents decided not to tell them
which was born first -- to prevent over protection or favoritism,
I guess. When they ask who was first, the parents say, "Oh, I can't
remember" or "the doctor forgot".
I thought that was a pretty good idea.

for a girl. Don't know the meaning but it was also the name of
a small town 2 miles outside of Jerusalem in the days of Christ.
If you are familiar with Tasha Tudor books, it was also her sister's
name.

A friend of mine, Dave, was given the other christian names of Nelson
Battersby. This was a family tradition for the first-born son but
Dave didn't appreciate having a name that had the conversational
impact of a battle field nuke! He became very secretive about his
full name which in turn meant that people were curious to find out
what N. B. stood for. Elaborate ploys were devised, threats employed
and bribes offered but Dave kept his secret. Romance blossomed for
Dave, and as marriage loomed large on the horizon people began to
realize that the vicar would be intoning the words "Do you, David
**** *****, take this woman......". It seemed that a record attendance
was guaranteed in church. Now Dave was a sensitive soul and felt
that having hundreds of people fall off their pews was not the best
way to start a life of nuptial bliss. He therefore revealed all
to his best man (who was not easily shocked) and asked him to quietly
"leak" his name before the event. Unfortunately Dave's ability to
choose a best man was about as good as his family's ability to choose
names. Far from being discreet,the best man wrote a poem leading
up to the great revelation and set it to music. The public performance
took place on the stag night. During the uncontrolled laughter that
followed there were two heart attacks, three arrests for public
order offences and a Scotsman was seen to buy a round of drinks!
Dave himself spent several hours in a state of apoplexy with his
face doing a good impression of a large and hairy victoria plum.
The wedding itself went well, with only subdued murmuring and a
few sniggers marring the occassion. Shortly afterwards Dave took
a job with Hewlett Packard and no one has seen him since!
Oscar Wilde said that children often grow up to understand their
parents, but rarely to forgive them. I think he had a point!

1.35 | Kevin or Carl or Karl????? | GRECO::MOREAU | | Thu Oct 20 1988 16:44 | 18 |
| my husband's cousin has 3 kids with strange names:
Serenity and Shi are the 2 girls names...and
Laroy for a boy. Anyone have any information on these names. They
sound as though they were made up out of the blue!
I am also going to have a baby in February. My names are:
Jillian Marie for a girl ... or
Kevin or Carl Michael for a boy. My husband wants Carl but I want
Kevin. Any way to resolve this! If I choose Carl, can it be spelled
with a K versus a C (Karl)? Is this the German version? The reason
for this is that my name is Carol and I feel this is so close to
Carl that I will be naming my own baby after me, which I am not
excited about because the name Carol doesn't thrill me!
|
1.36 | Kevin or Karl | GIGI::WARREN | | Thu Oct 20 1988 17:14 | 5 |
| Sure you can spell Karl with a K. I used to work with someone who
did that. I think it is the German variation, but I'm not sure.
I would think having a Carol and a Carl would be confusing. Of
course, I with you...I vote for Kevin.

1.37 | Twins too (two)! | SNOC01::PORTERJEFF | | Sun Nov 06 1988 21:20 | 18 |
| Hi,
This is my first time on NOTES since I'm a newcomer to DEC.
BABYNAMES really caught my attention since twins are expected in
March '89 to my wife and me.
Coming up with names sure is difficult, but some possibilities we
have are Tamara, Kathrine and Stephen Clay. Clay is my wifes maiden
name, and since it is also a Christian name, will be included in
the (first) boys name.
For those who like unusual names may I suggest my wifes name, Charmian.
This is pronounced Sharm_Ian, and she was Cleopatra's hand-maiden
as mentioned in Shakespeare's " Antony & Cleopatra ". It can also
be spelt Charmion or Sharmian.
Jeff.

1.38 | Tamara? | GIGI::WARREN | | Mon Nov 07 1988 09:21 | 5 |

on names. However, we feel pressured to use family names that we
aren't real fond of for a boy. Has anyone else had this problem
and how did you deal with it?? We have considered using three
names and calling him (if it is a boy by the name we do like).
If it is a girl--Ashley or Amber Ann
If it is a boy--William(after Dad and grandpa) Anthony(name we will
use) Oneill(after my dad's brother who was killed at a young age)
All of the above with the last name Huntley. Is that too much??
Help!!! How can we name our kid what we want without offending
the whole family?

him/me if it was a boy... We just told him we were planning
on naming him Keith Richard, or Richard Keith if it was a

is 3 years and his name is Daniel Robert John, obviously we couldn't
decide. They are all names of good friends of ours. I am expecting
again in October and I think it's a boy but we already used all

to do yet.

| Hey Kaz...
What's wrong with Ann? Why do you think "mothers" who give their
daughters that name are "bad"? Ann happens to be my middle name
and I like it. Oh, and try not to be sexist... My mother didn't
name me, my *father* did. Is that O.K.???

1.58 | boy's name | CURIE::FONTAINE | | Fri Sep 22 1989 14:18 | 3 |
| How about the name "Brent Michael" for a boy? I think it has a nice
strong sound to it. It's unusual without being weird.

1.59 | LEIGHA | GRANPA::DGALOSI | | Tue Oct 31 1989 13:09 | 10 |
| Leigha is a girl's name. It is an Americanized version of the Hebrew
name Lea. A boy's name would be spelled Leigha for the other version
Lee. The American spelling of Leigha means happy....unlike the
Hebrew spelling which means weary.
This is a beautiful name and since our background is not Hebrew
we wanted a different spelling. We found it in a book we bought
from Crown Books. This is our daughter's name. Leigha Marie.

| Hi, I am also new to VAX Notes. I'm from Ontario, Canada and have
a couple of different girls names. My name is Denine (pronounced Di-neen)
and I have a lovely baby girl who is six months old, whose name is
Brenna. I really like your son's name ... Dustin is different but
not strange!
Good luck with your next baby and it's name!!!!
Cheers!

1.62 | Two faves | PEKING::JONESA1 | | Wed Jan 17 1990 10:58 | 8 |
| Hi,
There are two names really like. For a boy the name is Alan.
This is Celtic and means harmony. And for a girl the name is
Gwyneira. This is a welsh name and means White Snow.

Just to let y'all know:
As a DEC TAG, after working a year, I get laid-off for 6 weeks. Well,
that time has come, starting April 30. I will be back, however, on
June 11 (hoping, of course, that things don't get so bad here that they
won't let me; it IS being worked on, and I WAS told that I am coming
back), same node.
I will miss everyone and everything. If anyone wishes to send me
U.S. mail (Gawd! How primitive! ;^) ), my home address is:
55 1/2 Cross Street
Nashua, NH 03060.
I SHALL RETURN!
See y'all June 11!

1.64 | BABYNAMES goes south, one way or the other. | ELNCHZ::WARRENS | VOTE! Your Community depends on it. | Thu May 10 1990 20:51 | 42 |
| NOTICE:
My My. This notesfile ha sbeen keeping nice and busy. I haven't done a
thing in it since I fell off the face of the Earth quite some time ago
(9/15/1986) - Yeash!
I've peeked in a few times, and have tried to read most notes, but not
very well. I still love BABYNAMES, just not a participant.
My sister-in-law is pregnant so I may be looking closer soon.
Anyway, I am moving from Madison, WI to Atlanta, GA.
I do not know the system resources space policy there. I want to move
control of BABYNAMES to Atlanta when I move (end of May). BABYNAMES
will stay put until I get the information to move it.
HOWEVER! I may not be able to move it. In that case BABYNAMES will
probably go off the air!
I will try to give you as much notice as I can but it may come to that.
BABYNAMES began with my need for names for my Twin boys (Braden and
Dylan - they are turning 4 this June 1!) I was also going to do some
name research based on the entries in the conference, who knows it may
still happen. As such I do not want to stop BABYNAMES. If it has to go,
is anyone out there able to pick it up and allow me or yourself to
moderate it?
As you can tell from my involvement, BABYNAMES 'runs itself'. Not much
work to it, just network and disk resources.
Send mail to this address or Rand Warrens @MZO or notes in this
conference.
Again, BABYNAMES may move or go off the air, new potential sites
solicited.
Cheers and keep those names coming.....

1.65 | BABY NAME? | DPDMAI::SIMMONSP | | Thu Jul 12 1990 10:42 | 5 |

I was just reading your message and was wondering what you ended up
naming your baby?
I, too, had a baby boy in August (the 31st) and named him Blake Andrew.

1.66 | BABYNAMES lives - but changes address | AIMTEC::WARRENS_R | VOTE! Your Community depends on it. | Fri Jul 20 1990 09:32 | 21 |
| Good news folks, BABYNAMES Lives!!!
I will be able to move BABYNAMES to my new node and it should be fine.
The move will be in a week or two.
So if you can't access it on SWSCHZ, the new node will probably be:
WARLRD::
WARLRD is on a cluster with YR2000 and is called AIMTEC, so these
should work too.
I will post the progress here and in EASYNET_CONFERENCES conference.
Send me mail if you need help.
Thanks

1.70 | some more names | NYEM1::REIS | | Fri May 17 1991 12:14 | 16 |
| hi, I'm new to babynames too. I just wanted to throw in a couple of
names in case anyone was interested. Geniveve or Rebecca Dyan or even
Nicole Anastasia are favorites of mine for girls. For a boy I like real
strong names like David (King David in the Bible) or Paul. My father in
law has a nice name,Joaquim. It is pronounced several different ways
depending on where you are from. He is Portuguese/Italian and it is
handed down as mentioned in an earlier note ie: he is Joaquim Joseph,
his father is Joseph Joaquim, and so on and so forth. My husbands
mother was in a bad mood and ruined it though by naming my husband
James Joseph (which I like anyway). We named our son Jason Joaquim for
Jason in the bible (my mothers choice) and the middle name is obvious.
Daughters name by the way is Michele Lee. Not for the actress! She was
supposed to be one of the above names but when asked at the hospital I
promptly replied Michele Lee as if it had been planned!!! I don't know!
Trudy (not short for Gertrude either)

1.71 | Other nodes to access BABYNAMES | AIMTEC::WARRENS_R | Kill Capital Punishment! | Wed Oct 09 1991 11:28 | 17 |
| Just a note.
If you are able to get to this conference on OASS:: then you should see
this. Obviously, if you can't get in you can't see this note: Oh well.
Other nodes you might try to circumvent the network link problem are:
WARIOR::
WARLCK::
you can change your notebook with something like.
mod entry BABYNAMES/file=WARIOR::BABYNAMES

| Is there a directory of all the names being discussed? I am looking
for a name for my new baby (Due anytime now). I glanced through the
conference and couldn't find what I was looking for...
The two names that I am considering are
Marcella Louise
Daniel Mark
Miller
Found Daniel, no problem, but I am looking more for the Marcella
definitions, background, etc...
thanks.

1.73 | no dir, power better, conference up. | AIMTEC::WARRENS_R | Kill Capital Punishment! | Thu Jan 23 1992 11:28 | 11 |
| re:.72
I do not believe that I have a directory note in here anywhere, thgough
you can always do a DIR or DIR/TITLE=name
Enjoy.
The power situation is slowly coming back together from this weekend,
so this conference now seems to be online.

1.74 | BABYNAMES *might* move | AIMTEC::WARRENS_R | I am successful IFF you are successful! | Mon Aug 29 1994 13:33 | 10 |
| Consider this fair warning****
there are going to many node changes around here in the coming weeks.
I do not know when or if BABYNAMES will be affected.
But I will find out and post here and in EASYNET_CONFERENCES.
Randy Warrens 343-1011
|
1.75 | May move unexpectedly. | AIMTEC::WARRENS_R | I am successful IFF you are successful! | Tue Nov 15 1994 16:03 | 7 |
| Please note. This conference is likely to move, but do not know where
yet.
You might not get any warning if it moves. The best place to look is in
the announcement conference.
