If you had to name your children realistically

DON’T CLICK ON THE SPOILERS.

Idea behind thread

I know many of us have an idea of how many children they would like to have and plan their names/combos somewhat accordingly. We would probably even know what we’d name six children if we knew in advance that we would have six.

However, I’d like to know what you’d name your child/children if you had no idea if another one is in the cards.

Say you have one child (everyone gets at least one), write their name down.
If all you ever want is one child, hit “reply” now.

If you want to have another one, click on one of the 12 spoilers:
C) If you get a c > name your next child and repeat the process if you want, clicking on a different spoiler now.
O) If you get an o > stop.
If you want to take it further, you can also use the B/G spoilers.

Do your names change from your usual combos?

If some of you want to go through this more than once, maybe without always adding thoughts and reflections, a similar thread has now been created in the name games category where you can post as much as you want :sunny:

[name_u]Kit[/name_u] [name_u]Briar[/name_u] :leaves:

Then I got an O which is SAD because I want a lot of kids!

Knowing [name_u]Kit[/name_u] [name_u]Briar[/name_u] would be your only child, would you change anything about the name or would you pick the same name regardless of how many children you have?
Also, good thing this isn’t reality, haha.

I got an O, does that mean I have one child? [name_u]Or[/name_u] no children at all??

I would still go with [name_u]Kit[/name_u] [name_u]Briar[/name_u]! [name_u]Kit[/name_u] is an honor for my great grandma and my dad, and [name_u]Briar[/name_u] is a name I’ve always loved. I especially like that [name_u]Kit[/name_u] could be a boy or girl!

and yes it is! :smiley:

Everyone (who wants one) definitely has one to begin with.

Oh great :grin:

[name_f]My[/name_f] one and only would be [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_f]Clarimond[/name_f], but my answer doesn’t change anyway. That would be my daughter’s name no matter how many siblings she has

My only girl and child would be:
Ofelia Rosalind Mabel Elinor Beth
(or a different Elizabeth variation, or Mary instead of Mabel, or Leonor instead of Elinor).

A much longer name than my usual three name combos…

[name_f]My[/name_f] [name_u]Blair[/name_u] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] and I’m content. :blush: However, my husband would like another and yes, I may have baby fever a few years from now.

I got a c and d so [name_u]Darcy[/name_u] [name_f]Helena[/name_f] would be future baby girl. I would stop with two.

In this case (If I only have one child) nothing changes much for me at the moment, curiously - I might consider adding another middle to use another name I love or to honour someone significant to me (e.g. [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] [name_m]Abram[/name_m] [name_m]Johannes[/name_m] in honour of my dad)

This is such a fun idea!

B/G (Croatian names)

Borna (b) - [name_m]Lovro[/name_m] (b) - [name_m]Vid[/name_m] (b) - [name_f]Mila[/name_f] (g) - [name_f]Iva[/name_f] (g) - [name_f]Zora[/name_f] (g) - [name_m]Maro[/name_m] (b)

For this one I listed names I’d likely use as I am living in Croatia. All of these names have Croatian/Slavic origins except for [name_m]Lovro[/name_m], [name_m]Maro[/name_m], and [name_m]Vid[/name_m] which are Croatian variants of other names (Lawrence, [name_m]Marius[/name_m] and [name_m]Vitus[/name_m], respectively). Had to stop once I realised it had no c’s or o’s :sweat_smile:

B/G (my NB names)

In the same B/G order as above, but with a more international flair and a bit more dramatic compared to names where I live:

[name_u]August[/name_u] (b) - [name_m]Valerian[/name_m] (b) - [name_m]Tibor[/name_m] (b) - [name_f]Evelina[/name_f] (g) - [name_f]Leonora[/name_f] (g) - [name_f]Ofelia[/name_f] (g) - [name_m]Donat[/name_m] (b)

I see you have [name_f]Ofelia[/name_f] too, that’s lovely!

Perhaps I should have made it a little easier to get at least two…
I also wanted to know if people would reconsider/add on to their combos but it seems like few people would change their combos!

For my first child I clicked & got a boy, so [name_u]Quinn[/name_u] [name_m]Julio[/name_m].

[name_u]Scott[/name_u] [name_m]Alexander[/name_m]
[name_f]Mira[/name_f] [name_f]Noemi[/name_f] (I got an O on this one)

This is actually perfect, I have three “definite” combos that I’d truly use, & I got all three of them!
