I'm watching the finale of The Challenge on MTV (because I'm 17) and thought I'd peruse and post some of the names on my BMB's naming thread. Because I love you.
Merry Christmas!
Caggie Kazden Aslan Ilyada Remington Caimbrie Addalyn Ellyana Charleigh
I've seen Charleigh before when a baby girl was being named after a grandfather Charlie, but I've also see Charlotte w/ nn Charlie, which seems like a less weird option in a case like that.
I must have missed Holleigh, but I'm not about to judge that with little Caggie and Remington running around. The bar has been set too high (low?)! lol
The poster just before you posted Jaxson too. What is wrong with Jackson?

I will never understand naming a little girl after an old man (and then compensating with weird spelling). I am biased though, I don't like naming people after anyone. I like the idea of each person getting a name for themselves, not for someone else.
I feel the same way. Why can't a person enter this world with it's own identity and name? Why do you NEED to start a kid off automatically be compared to a grown adult? There are 9 billion name options in this world... let you kid have their own!
Remington and Addalyn aren't terrible. I went to school with a guy named Remington. Everyone called him Remmy.
Me too! I mean, it isn't a name choice I would make, but at least I've seen it before.
Caggie and Charleigh are just awful. Adding leigh to a man's name doesn't make it a girl's name.
I'm sure when July has a baby name list there will be some terrible ones. I can't really judge, though, b/c the name H and I are contemplating for LO if it is a boy is out there.
Okay, I'm loving how many of you are like me and still watching The Challenge. I only watched part of the reunion and will watch the rest tonight! I won't say anything, Alzi.

And now I'm lurking on Julys name thread. Oh boy. One chick says they want Gunner as a boy name b/c her H was a gunner in Iraq. I was an MP, can I use Cop?
Oh jeez my BMB is pretty tame in comparison, but there was an awful one...along the same lines as remington, but worse. I can't remember it now, but I wasn't the only one who thought it was terrible.
Stop it with the -eigh and the superfluous Y's. Seriously. It makes you look stupid.

DH wants really badly to use his grandpas name, Blakely. I'm trying to get him to shorten it to Blake. Its not an awful name but I associate it with girls. Even if we go with Blakely I can just call him Blake I guess.

There was a Hooters girl named Blakely on the last season of the Bachelor. Just sayin'.
