265.0. "The search goes on..." by 3D::SANBORN (Crazy, and lovin' it) Thu Jul 14 1988 18:42

    Were expecting a baby in three weeks.  We had a pretty easy time
    picking a boys name, as we both liked Michael (except that it's
    so popular).  For girls, the search still goes on.  I like the name
    Michelle, and my wife likes the name Stephanie.   I also like
    Melanie, Kira, Nicole, Jennifer... I feel my last name sounds
    kind of plain (Sanborn), and I would like to choose a first name that 
    has a strong constantant sound in it... Any ideas?  So far
    we have:
    
    			Michael David  
        
    			Michelle Nicole

265.1The search ends??ONFIRE::DWILLIAMSFri Jul 15 1988 09:372
    What about Ashley Elizabeth??  For a name that would sound nice
    with Sanborn.
265.23D::SANBORNCrazy, and lovin' itFri Jul 15 1988 09:565
    That sounds nice, and I like Ashley.  My only reservations are lack
    of a good nickname ("Ash?"), and that it seems to be an very popular
    name these days.

    You could always use Lee for a nickname name instead of Ash.  Or
    what about Elizabeth Ashley.  That way there are a few more nicknames.
    Like Liz or Beth or Betty.

    Dear Dave,
    
    	How about Alicia or Louisa or Barbara, I think one of those
    three would sound very strong with the last name Sanborn, Espally
    Barbara.
    
    Good Luck,
    
265.8 MEDAIAIAMOK::HANSONTue Jul 26 1988 14:087
    You won't believe this one...it's my mother's name and someday 
    I hope to use it as a middle name for a daughter.
    
    Medaia         pronounced Mah-DAY-ah
                                        
    Medaia Sanborn.....HMMMMMMMMMMMM  Godess of love is the meaning......
    
265.9Ariadne/Kathleen/What is a nickname?UTROP1::WIJDEVEN_MThu Aug 04 1988 11:4522
    How about Ariadne or Kathleen?
    
    I am not familiar with what you call "nicknames".
    Is that a short way you call a baby every day. Like Katherine and
    you call her Kathy or like myself: My official name is Martina
    but my parents call me Marianne. Only by weddings and that kind
    of official occasions I will be called Martina. But nobody knows
    me by that name. Is that a nickname?
    Or do you mean that people shorten a name easily from Ashley to
    Ash?
    Please let me know because I saw that they use the word "nickname"
    a lot in these babynames-notes!
    
    Let us know your decision.
    
    Regards,
    
    Marianne (Holland)
    
    
    
    
265.10Nick is a nicknameEDUHCI::WARRENThu Aug 04 1988 11:5513
    You've got the idea.  A nickname can be an abbreviated form of
    your first name (like Kathy for Katherine or Bob for Robert) or
    sometimes it's an unrelated name that you use informally (Stretch
    or Red or Sis).  Sometimes a nickname is actually longer than your
    given name.  An example would be someone named Ann who is usually
    called Annie.
    
    Basically, it's what your friends usually call you, if it differs
    from your official name.

265.11Announcing Michael David Sanborn!3D::SANBORNCrazy, and lovin' itThu Aug 25 1988 14:328
    Well folks, thanks much for all your suggestions for girls names,
    but we won't need them (at least not this time).  The baby is a
    boy after all (just like my wife predicted...).  His full name is
    Michael David Sanborn born August 5, 1988 12:27pm, 7lbs 13 oz, 
    21 in. long.
    
    Thanks again,
    Dave
