3 on Thursday - The name says it all

O my I can not tell you how much I LOVE the questions this week.  I have a slight obsession with names.  In fact, I’m busy doing research into what people name their kids and why.

I would love it if you could help me with my research. If you would like to help out could you please send me an email answering the following questions:

1. Boy or Girl
2. Full names (no surnames please)
3. Did you name them after anyone? If yes, who and why
4. If you didn’t name them after anyone why did you pick the name(s)
5. Who picked the name(s)? Mom or Dad or both of you or someone else?
6. The year they were born

Thank you so much!

Ok, back to the questions of this weeks: 

Names you would or absolutely would NOT name a future child.

I would have to say, at the moment if I had to have another boy I would choose from the following names:

1. Callan – It means rock
2. Smith – I like Smith cause it’s unusual as a first name but not something no-one has ever heard of before
3. Eoghan (pronounced Owen)

Names that I would not pick for a boy (please note this is my own person al choice)

1. Phil

2. Bruce

3. Barry

If I had to name another girl I would choose from the following names:

1. Keeva (Caoimbe) – No reason other than the fact that I like it
2. Fynn – slightly different from the usual spelling Finn
3. Quinn – No reason other than the fact that I like it

Names that I would not pick for a boy (please note this is my own person al choice)

1. Brandy – or any other drink related name

2. Gladess or Eunice or similar names

3. Paris – funny story years ago when I was expecting my husband really like the name (this was before someone made the name infamous) so glad we didn’t choose it.

I can’t wait to read all the other lists.  So please, link up!

Old age

I'm hooking up with Cole & Andrea today for:

I don't like talking about my age ... really so their question today is a sensitive subject for me.

Things I like/dislike about being .......34

Ok, the dislike is the easiest:

1. being 34 .... I really don't want to be 34 I don't feel 34 I feel 25!  Turning 30 was a huge thing for me and even now I hate admitting my age.

2. mmmmh

Wow look at that I could only think of one thing I dislike about being 34

Things I like about being 34 .....

1. I've learnt to feel less guilty for doing what I want and wanting what I want out of life. Like having bright pink hair

2. I might be 34 but I don't look it. I am mistaken for the kids older sister all the time (to their horror!)

How about you? Go on ....link up
