Naming babies after places?

Question

If you had to name your baby after a state, what would it be, and for a boy or girl? And what city? And what Country? Answer for all or just for one if you want. I am completely just curious....I am not considering naming a child after a place. This is just for my own curiousity.

Answer 1

Carolina/Dakota
Charlotte/Austin
Kenya/Chad

City: Sydney
Country: Kenya

Answer 3

to be named after a state,my girl would be named after Virginia for a guy Tenessee, as a city name Athens;Dublin, CorK,Houston,Geneva,Rome or Milan for a country France, Austria.
Others should consider it hard unless you want to call the child "Rotterdam, come to mama" is like calling a dog

Answer 4

I grew up in Madison, Wisconsin...and CRINGE every time I see a child named Madison...it's cute if you don't live there...but otherwise kinda stupid. My grandmother's name was Virginia...I like it for a middle name because it's pretty...not because of the place but because it's an old family name.

Answer 5

Boy names: Austin, Dallas
Girl names: Brooklyn(NY), Charlotte(NC)

Answer 6

I personally like Prescott for a boy.. maybe Dallas or something else like that.. for a girl I like America as in America Fererra, Montana, Cheyenne (Wyoming) and London!

Answer 7

I only like place names that are actually real names like Georgia and Adelaide. I think names like Africa, Paris, Ireland are horrible especially when people spell them weird like Irelynn or Afreeka just to be different.

Answer 8

A state : Georgia
A Country : Asia
A City : Savannah

this is a neat question .. something to think about..

Answer 9

Country- Italy (Girl)
State- Dakota (boy or girl)
City- Sydney (girl) or Austin (boy)

Answer 10

My favorite girl name would have to be Dakota.

As for a boy, I like Jackson (I have also met a little girl who had this as her name, too).
