WHAT'S IN A NAME?? YOU DECIDE

Now that we are all excited about this beautiful doll, the next thing to do is to figure out what her name will be.  This seems to be fun and frustrating at the same time.  Why, you may ask? Well, regardless of the sex of your child you want your baby to have a strong name. You want something that when you hear it you instantly think of your child.  You also want something that is as significantly original as possible without the child wanting to change their names when they become teenagers as they feel they maybe scared for life (I know people like this, lol). Honestly, you want to say your child's name and look at them and say yes....that is exactly what they look like.

So in our research, I have looked on different baby websites. I thought back to when I was naming my sons. How I wanted them to have strong, masculine names.  I also wanted to incorporate heritage into it as well.  So with them, their first names are theirs.  Their middle names were taken from my father and my brothers.  I thought that was a nice way to honor the men in my life. But what about this little girl???

I thought of the names of the women that I love, my Nana, Shirley Ann, Lillian Ann, Patricia, Ruby, Esther.  And then I realized that the women who I have cherished all have baby boomer names.  Shirley and Ann were very popular during the 1930-50's. So I didn't know if I wanted to reach back that far.  whew lawwd, lol. My female parents Sabrina, Nadia and Serena. Wasn't really feeling those either. I mean they have really powerful meaning but I don't think they capture the fabulous one inside of me. 

So we decided on these names as some top names for our little girl and we thought that you guys should help us.  I will post the names, origins and meanings and see what you come up with.  HAVE FUN!!!
