776.0. "ideas for baby Lindsey?" by AIAG::LINDSEY () Fri Mar 27 1992 16:06

    
    We are due in 6 weeks and still are unsettled on a name for our baby.
    
    We have a 2-1/2 year old girl named Kathryn Elizabeth (last name is
    Lindsey).
    
    Some guidelines are 
     
    1) we don't care for unisex names
    2) we don't want something very unusual, especially for a boy
    3) we tend to like classic, strong names
    4) it would be nice to put a family name in there as a middle name
       but we really don't care for the choices
    
      ex:  grandparents names 
    
            Alberta Jeanette Marie
            Jeanne Marie
     	    Frank Alfred
    	    Robert Clair
    
      ex:  Great-Grandparents
    
    	    Sophie
    	    Clara
    	    Ernest
    	    Norris Clair
    
      Our names are Susan Alletta Sophie and Gerald (Jerry) Lee
    
      We kinda like Steven James or Steven Michael if its a boy, although
    it would be kinda nice to put a relatives name in if it sounded
    reasonable.
    
    We are pretty clueless when it comes to a girl, but have been toying
    with Marie or Suzanne as a middle name.
    
    Ideas?

776.1	Jeanette/Janine Marie?	CIVIC::FAHEL	Amalthea Celebras/Silver Unicorn	`Fri Mar 27 1992 16:31`	3
	Jeanette Marie is nice. How about Janine as a variation? K.C.
776.2	Names	KYOA::CHANG		`Mon Mar 30 1992 09:57`	15
	I like your Steven combinations. But if you want to use relatives names how about Steven Alfred or Steven Robert? For girls' names: Clara Marie Lindsey Clara Suzanne Lindsey Suzanne Marie Lindsey I also like Jeanette Marie as suggested in .1. Best of luck to you. Chris
776.3		SWAM1::THOMPSOND_SH		`Mon Mar 30 1992 18:43`	3
	Suzanne Claire Lindsey? /slt
776.4	What's in a name	BSS::K_LAFFIN		`Mon Mar 30 1992 20:18`	16
	I came up with a name derived from a grandmother and a Great grandmother. Sophia Jeanette Lindsey I like Steven as a middle name but not as a first. What about Anthony Steven Lindsey Daniel Steven Lindsey Steven Francis (Grandfather) Lindsey Derek Douglas Lindsey Katrina
776.5	family names under consideration only as middle names	AIAG::LINDSEY		`Wed Apr 01 1992 17:00`	19
	RE: all We really don't care for any of those family names as first names. We just thought it would be nice to include as a middle name if it fit well with the first name. I thought of Steven Francis but wondered if it made him sound like a saint? I think we are pretty set on Steven if its a boy unless something really strikes our fancy...it the girl's name that we aren't settled on at all. Appreciate the ideas and welcome many more.... Thanks, Sue
776.6		AIAG::LINDSEY		`Wed Apr 01 1992 17:03`	11
	One more idea... I was just reading about making up a name from a combo of two names or from an anagram (mixing up the letters to make a new name) ie. earth = ethra. or from Jerry and Rubin - Jerin. That could be interesting too - although I would probably only consider it for a girl's name. I hear that there's too much prejudice against an unusual boy's name. Sue
776.7	Victoria Suzanne/Steven Robert	CNTROL::STOLICNY		`Thu Apr 02 1992 07:32`	20
	For classic, strong girls' names that are not unisex and complement Kathryn Elizabeth, perhaps you'd consider the following: Victoria Suzanne Lindsey Diana Marie Lindsey Andrea Jeanne Lindsey Michelle Jeannette Lindsey Rebecca Jane Lindsey I like Victoria and Michelle the best. I like Steven Francis - don't think to associate it with a saint - but then, I'm not particularly religious. Steven Robert is a nice combo too. I think both Steven Francis and Steven Robert are in keeping with Kathryn Elizabeth. How about Steven Gerald to give Dad some glory??? Only 6 weeks? The countdown is on! Good luck, Carol
776.8	I like those too!	AIAG::LINDSEY		`Fri Apr 03 1992 17:39`	13
	Carol, Its funny that you chose Victoria and Michelle. I liked Victoria (not that fond of Vickie though) and my husband likes Michelle. Jerry really doesn't like the name Gerald, so I am sure he wouldn't want to pass it down to his son.\ Thanks for the suggestions - I am going to run them by Jerry. Sue
776.9		RTOEU::KRICKS	There is no place like home....	`Mon Apr 06 1992 04:04`	4
	I went to school with a girl names Victoria and she was nick-named Torie. I think it is different and so much nicier than Vickie. /Kim
776.10	Jeremy instead of Gerald?	SELL3::FAHEL	Amalthea Celebras/Silver Unicorn	`Mon Apr 06 1992 10:13`	3
	How about instead of Gerald-Jerry, how about Jeremy-Jerry? K.C.
776.11	Michelle Suzanne	SMAUG::LINDSEY		`Thu Jul 30 1992 00:38`	8
	I had a baby girl, May 15th. 8 lbs 10 oz, 21 inches. We named her Michelle Suzanne Lindsey Thanks for the suggestions! Sue
776.12	Congratulations.	KYOA::CHANG		`Thu Jul 30 1992 10:43`	3
	Congratulations Sue. Best of luck to you and your new daughter. Chris
