I was very pregnant and having trouble sleeping. I started watching a movie and there was Jonathon Taylor Thomas.
we each went through the baby book and wrote down names we each liked. We then showed each other the names we liked. We got it down to five Girl names, and five Boy names. We wrote them down on a piece of paper. I held the boy names and had my husband draw one. He did the same for the Girl names. What ever the name was on the piece of paper is what the child was called. Name that stuck out in my mind Girls Aurora Dawn, Silivia rae, Vanessa Jo. Two of the boys names Dexter Raymond, Sidney Charles, Dexter Devon. This was a fun way to pick names.
My children were named after family members I respected.
I picked the name Angel, but then thought it might be too much to live up to, so I named her Angela.
Michael for my uncle, Thomas for my hubby.
Common names of that time.

Amazon is great.
I was exhausted and all I wanted to do was sleep, but the nurse kept coming back in and badgered me for a name. Finally, because I just couldn’t decide on a name I decided to let the Gods decide. I picked up my much thumbed book of Baby Names and placed the book on my raised knees. I made a deal with myself that when the book was allowed to fall open, with eyes closed, I would take my index finger and drop it on the book. The name that was under my finger (no matter if it was horrid) would be the name to go on the birth certificate. And, thus, my son Vincent got his name.

Thanks.
I read baby name books,
Blogged about it here! :) Thanks!
I blogger about you here http://mowermom.blogspot.com/2008/04/how-we-choose-our-sons-name.html
She was named after my mother.
8 years after my daughter was born we had a son, we chose to name him after his big sister. Our daughter is Nicole, Nicky for short. Her middle name is Lea so we took the Ky from Nicky and the Le from Lea and we had the perfect name for our son, Kyle.
Here’s my entry:

We were undecided so we went with the first name in the baby name book…Aaron!
Nice! Too bad I’m kid-less.
I was so afraid to name him for fear that i would ruin his life forever w/ the wrong name so his aunt actually came up w/ the name
My husband’s name is Constantine and he didn’t want to give it to a son so we named our daughter Connie and we have a Junius instead of a Junior
great gifts great givaway. thanks
