Names have a profound impact on our overall wellbeing, therefore, choosing the right name has a lifelong impact. No pressure, right?
So, if you are planning the name of your loved one, we’ve gathered a few important points for you to ponder upon.
Try Coming Up With An Uncommon Name
Many parents complain that at the time they proposed a particular name for their baby, it was very rare, but, they can now hear it everywhere. For instance, you decide to name your child Aiden, for its unique charm, but soon you start meeting all Aidens in your surroundings.
To avoid keeping a common name, observe the names of children in your social circle. If you are expecting for the first time, try asking a kindergarten teacher for your favorite name.
Go With Your Instinct
Many times, parents get skeptical about a name they love, simply because the family does not like the sound of it. However, do not be demoralized and go with your intuition. The family will soon get used to the name once the little angel is born. Thus, as a parent, it’s solely your decision.
Also, the name of a child has an impact on their personality. Many parents are in a hurry while leaving the hospital and as a result, they make a hasty decision. In such a case, try going with your own creative instinct instead of naming something that wouldn’t go with the personality of your baby.
Don’t Make Name Associations
Many people while naming their babies conjure about a personal experience with the name. However, these associations are just in your mind and have no impact on the wellbeing of your baby. So, if you have bad experiences with Sam, don’t link the experience to your baby. Instead, you can make your Sam a complete opposite of the person you don’t like.
