Boy Name


Boy Name

Picking out a name for your baby boy can be a difficult decision, unless you already have a favorite ancestor whose name you'd like to pass down. Still, it's the boy who has to live with the name, and nicknames and misspellings that may result from 'unique' boy names. Think it over carefully!

About Boy Name

In 2009 the Social Security Administration recorded 2,095,910 boys born in the United States. The parents of these bouncing baby boys were then faced with the first of many difficult decisions that they would have to make over their child’s lifetime. What to name him?

Deciding what to name your son is not a decision to take lightly. There are many things to consider. Check the spelling and pronunciation. Is his name going to be misspelled often? No one likes to have to constantly correct others how how to say and spell their name. What nicknames would he be given? Make sure that name doesn’t rhyme with anything that would be embarrassing! How does it sound when paired with his last name? They should flow smoothly. Make sure you say them together out loud, as what looks good on paper may not sound so great to the ears.
