Why are Baby names so important? 

Baby Names are so important due to the fact, that without them, we would be calling each other either weird things or numbers like prisoners.

Ugh *cringes*

On the other hand, names are looked upon as a very vital part of life, and one prides oneself. The name you choose for your child is very important to your child’s identity, for they will be called the chosen name until they find the need to get it legally changed.

So, choose wisely and do your research.

How Should I Pick a Name For My Child?

When choosing a baby name for your baby boy, you should do the following:

  • Don’t give your child a nickname as a first name.
  • Look up the meaning behind the name you are debating on.
  • Try to avoid commonly used names, unless you are just so in love with the name or if the baby boy is going to be a Jr.
  • Choose a name that you know down in the future, your child will thank you for and be so proud to have.
