724.0. "Name for baby Cunningham" by EMDS::CUNNINGHAM () Tue Aug 20 1991 15:09

    
    
    Okay...I've been reading this Notesfile for awhile now, and pretty much
    think we have our names picked out, but would be interested in some
    more ideas. (baby is due in October) We are still open for change
    and suggestions and I'd be interested to see if anyone comes up with 
    something we haven't thought of yet..
    
    So far:  
    
    Boy:  Michael John
    Girl:  Megan Nicole
    
    My husbands name is Stephen Michael, and we have both liked the name
    Michael even before conception. My Dad's name is John Michael (this
    would be his first grandchild), my grandfathers names were Michael, and
    John...   We've thought about Michael Stephen too, but thought with the
    long names of Michael, and Cunningham, it might be too much?
    And yes...his family is very Irish, although its not a requirement.
    
    Any ideas?

724.1	Michael John is great!	CNTROL::STOLICNY	`Tue Aug 20 1991 16:24`	12
	Michael John is excellent and a perfect choice considering all the people it honors! Beware of baby boys named Michael, however. They have a reputation of being little terrors! :-) Great name! I've never been crazy about Megan, but it does sound nice with Nicole as a middle name. I rather prefer Colleen, Erin, Catherine, or Kelly for Irish girls' names. Good luck, Carol
724.2	Right on the nose!	EMDS::CUNNINGHAM	`Wed Aug 21 1991 08:37`	14
	What a riot Carol, all the girls names you mentioned are women in my husbands family! Colleen - sister-in-law Erin - daughter (from first marriage) Catherine - sister Kelly - Niece/godchild Thats funny! Keep em coming! Chris
724.3		KYOA::CHANG	`Wed Aug 21 1991 11:10`	6
	How about Amy Nicole? It is short and goes well with Cunningham in my opinion. I agree with your choice for a boy's name. Chris
724.4	Tara, Shannon, Alison or Sheila?	CNTROL::STOLICNY	`Wed Aug 21 1991 12:31`	16
	re: .2 I guess that means that I have good taste in names, huh? Haha. One other name that I forgot to include that sounds great with Cunningham and is Irish Gaelic is Tara. Tara Nicole Cunningham, do you like it? Other Irish-Gaelic names worth considering are: Molly, Shannon, Alison, the ever-popular Caitlin, Brenna (don't really like it myself), Kerry, and Sheila. Tara, Shannon, Alison, or Sheila would get my votes. Carol
724.5	More votes for Michael John, Tara, Molly or Sheila	RAB::MEHRING	`Wed Sep 11 1991 17:17`	7
	I love the 3 names: Tara, Molly, and Sheila with Cunningham!! And they all sound good with Nicole. Megan's not bad either, but these are more unusual. And I agree that Michael John is a great boy's name choice... Good luck deciding! -Cori
724.6	Election is over: Michael John is born	EMDS::CUNNINGHAM	`Wed Feb 19 1992 12:45`	13
	And the results are: Michael John Cunningham was born October 17, 1991 Thanks for all the replies... Chris (PS...I think we were going to stick with Megan if HE was a girl, although, Tara was a strong second, and Julie was third.)
