do you like the name deja?

Answer 1

Deja? for vu?
Not again!

Answer 2

Pretty name just add something with it Deja Renee ..Deja Nicole, Deja Ariel

Answer 3

Yes! Deja is a good name. Infants learn to say the D sound first (Da Da Da) She may be saying her own name before other children her age.
What is the middle name?

Answer 4

No! It reminds me of the strip club Deja-Vu. It also sounds like a stripper. Also DO NOT name your child any thing like Diamond, Precious or Delicious unless you want her hugging a brass pole in a thong with white dust around her nostrils for a living.

Answer 5

I don't like Deja on it's own because it makes me think of Deja Vu. I knew a girl named Deja-Lynnae and I always thought it was beautiful.

Answer 6

It's actually a really pretty name, but like others, I can't get past the deja vu thing.

Answer 7

Absolutely Beautiful

Answer 8

I think if it's your baby, character in a book, alias, whatever.. it shouldn't matter what everyone else thinks. If you like it then that's all that should matter.
I didn't care for Kennedy as a little girls first name when my neice was born. But I've really started to like it and it suits her so well. If your parents or someone doesn't like it then once they see the pretty baby that gets that name they'll be past it.

1. Remember that your child will have this name for their whole life, so make it something special to be proud of.

2. Write lists of names you love, people you want to honor, names that have special meanings, etc (both you and your partner should do this). Compare the lists - are there names you both love? Maybe your partner likes a name that you can't stand. Cross off the names you don't like and add names you do like to your list. These lists will change over time.

3. Make sure it's a name that you both love. Try saying your child's name over and over to see if you'll get tired of hearing it. One very important factor is if the name will age. It's easy to imagine a child named Coco, but can you see a grown up named Coco?

4. Make sure the name sounds good with your last name. Don't ever use a name whose last letter is the same as the first letter in your last name (i.e. George Johnson, Annabell Loor, Roger Rine).

5. Try not to choose a name that is inspired by your beliefs. Sometimes people name their children after a historic/biblical name. Keep in mind that when your children grow up, they may not choose to have the same beliefs.

6. Decide when you want to reveal the name. Some couples wait until the baby is born, while others tell their family, friends, and anyone who asks right away.

7. Think about how it might be shortened. Lots of people shorten their names, and you need to choose one that you like and will still sound good with your surname - e.g. the names Richard Wickes might sound OK, but what if he prefers to be called Rick?

8. Try not to choose names so that your children - particularly if they are the same sex - have the same initials. When they are older and a letter arrives for J. Smith, how will you know if it's for Josh, Jack, Joseph or Jordan?


Tips

* If you are expecting multiples, see if the names sound good with each other. Are they too similar? Twins Alexander and Alexandra are never going to forgive you!

* Also think about not naming all of your kids in a theme, such as Emerald, Ruby, and Opal.

* If you last name is the butt of many jokes (Hogg, Pigg, etc.), don't name your kids anything to accentuate that. Ima, Shesa and Youra is just cruel.

* Make sure your kid can live with the name.

* Put your name through the "bully" test. Rhyme it with anything you can think of, look for hidden words in the name, etc. Have a small child help you if you can't think of anything. Kids are very quick to spot odd things about names and exploit them.

* Look at the initials to see if they spell something embarrassing. Andrew Samuel Sanderson won't be happy to share his middle name with anyone.

* Google your choice to make sure it hasn't been co-opted by strippers and porn stars.

* Check the Social Security Administration's website to see the popularity of the name.

* Don't get cute and creative with spelling. It doesn't make the name more unique or different, it will sound the same. This just causes problems with no one ever getting your child's name correct and a lot of bureaucratic hassle later in life.

* Short names go better with long last names and vice versa. A long name with a long surname will look and sound odd.

* Don't make your kid sound like a stripper. Avoid Brandii, Mandii, Candii, Tamii, etc.


Warnings

* Your child will carry this name for the rest of his/her life. This living being will be an adult for far longer than they will be a cute adorable baby. Choose a name that will serve them throughout life, not one that is cute and adorable. Don't embarrass this future adult by being overly whimsical and silly. Wayne Dwopp won't thank you when he is being teased in school.

* If you use an invented spelling of the name, carefully look at it and show it to others in order to avoid embarrassing the child later in life.

Answer 10

While they are babies no name sounds bad (not having a go but...) When you child gets older and goes to school with the way kids are these days they are bound to bully her.

Though i must admit i do love people who come up with different names try adding another unique name before or after.

Answer 11

it kind of reminds me of deja vu....but it's still interesting, nothing wrong with being different. i like different names, but my husband doesn't, so it took forever for us to compromise on our daughters name....lexie, it's cute but not what i really wanted. but thats ok, i can't picture her as anything else now. but yes, deja is cute.
