Ok so obviously my other baby names didn't go down so well. So i've decided to not use Runty Jr and Sally as a possibility for my baby daughter, though i am still keen on Millicent and Mesintia. I would appreciate your opinion on EACH of these names, as to make the right decision if that would be ok.
Girl
Millicent
Mesintia
Saphira
Elefo
Lennox
Typhanii
Hepsibah

Boy
Caelin
Mateo
Sebastien
Achtung
Mahesh-Bubity

any comments would be greatly appreciated thanks

Millicent and Sebastian are the best 2 out of the selection here. Millicent can be shortened to Milly which is really pretty, and Seb is a modern take on Sebastian.
My only advice would be careful about choosing names which the majority of people will have difficulty pronouncing, I have an unusual name and it is embarrassing to have to correct everyone. Especially when you are at school and having to correct the teacher!
Most people say my name right until they see it written down, then they start saying it as it is spelt. I am at the stage now (age 34) where I respond to anything that sounds similar to my name and the only person to use my name correctly is my mother.
I have 5 children and all of them have lovely names, but ones which are recognisable!!

Millicent and Lennox YES! ALL OTHERS NO!. They are just to peculiar to use.

Caelin, (not bad) Mateo and Sebastian YES! ALL OTHERS, NO! Watch out for odd ball spellings, as his or her name will be spelled wrong most of their life.

Please remember your child has to live in the world and with people for all of their lives.

Having to spell your name every single time you give it to someone is NOT GOOD. Consider EVERY TIME you say your name people say "CAN YOU SPELL THAT PLEASE".

Remember to give your child a name that goes with the Sur name and middle name. Write them all together, say them all together and check the initials to be sure they do not make a word or unpleasant initials. Ex. D.O.G.

Pretend to call your child when they are older using the name.
"Achtung, Achtung, come here right now" You do know this is a German word used heavily in World War II, I believe meaning " ATTENTION". This is just NOT a name.

The names I have said no to would be just cruel.

Try not to give your child a strong nationality name, without ever being seen or known this locks them into a certain mental culture by anyone who sees the name. Names give a strong impression.

Be careful of what you give your child.

Personally, I like Millicent the best.It is a good Jewish name. The only problem with it is that people are going to want to call her Milli. I have a friend named Millicent Suzanne and her mother nicknamed her Penny, She got Penny from the cent part of the name. If you don't mine people calling her Milli then you won't have a problem with it.

For a boy I like the name Mateo. For some reason that name just sticks out to me. Just remember that most of his friends might call him Matty. Kids look for nicknames.

Achtung reminds me to much of Nazi Germany. They use that word when they want people to pay attention..

Good luck finding the right name. I know it must be hard. There are lots of free baby naming sites. Maybe you can check them out,

I doubt you like my name but it is Mauri. If you like it feel free to use it.

Good luck :o)

Millicent for a girl would be nice! I would stay away from Typanii, it sounds a bit like a disease or a drug
Caelin, is nice! I don't like any of the others - theyr'e a bit to far out there for me - poor kid might get teased. Think about a name that won't humiliate your child.

Millicent for a girl would be nice because the she could be call Milly or Mill for short. I would stay away from Typanii, it sounds a bit like a disease.
I like Caelin, it sounds like a strong name but with compassion.

Sorry, I'm trying to be honest here. Please don't get offended :)...

Girl
Millicent - Rather old fashion sounding
Mesintia - Weird
Saphira - I prefer Saphire
Elefo - More of a boys name
Lennox - Nice for a boy
Typhanii - Ugly name and spelling
Hepsibah - Masculine

Boy
Caelin - I like this, a little feminine
Mateo - I like this too, probably my favourite
Sebastien - Nice
Achtung - Nice, but maybe a little hard to pronounce
Mahesh-Bubity - Mahesh is good, not Bubity

I would suggest that you go to this website babynamesworld.com and click on the meanings button and find out what the meanings of the names you like are you wouldn't want to name your child something that means "sea of bitterness" or "Liar" and believe me there are names that have these meanings because my BF is pregnant and we have been searching names and some names we came across had terrible meanings... It is your choice on what you name your baby but make sure it is a good name all together not just the sound of it.....

well, first off BETS WISHES ON YOUR UP COMING ADDITION TO YOUR FAMILY. WHILE BEING PREGNANT WE AS WOMEN TEND TO COME UP WITH THE MOST UNUSUAL NAMES AND THEY ARE OFTEN MEANINGLESS AND TOO HARD TO SPELL HALF THE TIME WHAT I SUGGEST IF I MAY ON ANY GIVEN DAY GIVE YOURSELF 25 MINUTES TO PONDER THIS QUESTION AND ALLOW THE FATHER THE CHOICE TO DO THE SAME THEN ON THE 26TH MINUTE BE SURE THERE ARE NO INTERRUPTIONS AND LISTEN TO THE NAMES HE HAS CHOSEN BE SURE NOT TO HEAR HIM BUT TO LISTEN AND IF FINDING YOUR CHILD A SOLID NAME WITH HOPE FOR A HEALTHY FUTURE IS IMPORTANT TO YOU TWO THEN THE NAME WILL BE THAT OF THE FATHERS CHOOSING .

Apple or Shiloh - Shiloh, if i will use it for a boy. Love Shiloh for a boy. Pilot or Suri - i will bypass with Pilot. greater so by way of fact i'm prepared on his father, nevertheless i think of Pilot is an impressive call too. particular, it would condemn the youngster to an entire life of problems and that i maximum rather does no longer use it, yet i will confess i think of this is cool. it incredibly is merely like naming your son wellness care provider, which replaced right into a fave boys call throughout the nineteenth century. as nicely, 'sur' skill 'bitter' or 'grumpy' in my first language, and so Suri is out of the question. Zachary or Gideon - Gideon. by way of fact this is cool. Harper or Sadie - Sadie. Harper does not incredibly sound like a acceptance to me, it merely appears like somebody who performs the harp. Monroe or Emme - for a woman Emme. Monroe is masculine. yet I do like Monroe for a boy. Morroccan or Max - Max. *snigger* Morroccan is ridiculous. Knox or Jackson - Knox. i'm a sucker for old, quirky names. i like Jackson too, yet that has greater to do with the human beings I go alongside with the call, quite than the call itself. Vivienne or Bryn - i'm assuming it incredibly is for a woman, so i'm going to choose on Vivienne. Bryn is a masculine call. the female version is spelled Brynn. Vivienne is a impressive call, whether I choose Vivian. Daniel or Levi - Daniel. For some reason, I honestly have on no account seen the appeal of Levi. Sunday or Honor - Honor. i do unlike distinctive function names, yet a minimum of this is an honestly call. Sunday is an afternoon of the week. i might might desire to spell it Honour, nevertheless, making use of the English spelling. BQ: i might desire to work out myself making use of Shiloh for a boy. Zachary and Gideon are thoroughly usable as nicely, as is Monroe and Max. Knox is fantastic, and Jackson and Daniel too. and that i like Vivienne/Vivian for a woman. and that i admire Pilot for a boy, yet enable's merely fake i do no longer.
