The Baby Names Tag

For those of you that don't know me personally, I have some news for you... You probably guessed from the title of this post but my husband and I are expecting our first child! We are due in late July and are so excited to grow our little family! So I thought that it would be fun to do a baby-related tag since my mind seems literally obsessed with all things baby lately! My husband and I have not officially decided what we are naming our little bundle of joy, so our top choices for names will not be included in this tag because we want the name of our baby to be a surprise. 

T A G   Q U E S T I O N S:

1. What is your favourite boy and girl's name from the top UK names list (2015)?

My favorite girl's name from the list is Emma but my husband and I won't be using it because we have a niece named Emma. As for the boy's list, my favorite is Jack. But we can't have a son named Jack because we have a dog named Jax and that would be weird. 

2. What is your least favourite boy and girl's name from the top UK names list (2015)?

I don't want to insult anybody's taste in names/name, so I'm gonna skip this one. 

3. If you had twins, what would you name them? (G/G, B/B, B/G)

(Again, I'm only putting names that I like, not names that I'll actually be using for this baby). I love classic, traditional names. I'm not really into trendy names or spelling names differently to make them more unique. It's just not my personal style but I can totally understand why some parents want to do that. 

So if I had a boy and a girl, I think I'd choose short, classic names like Jack and Lucy. If I had two boys, I think I'd choose Austin and Logan. For two girls I think I'd pick Erin and Madison. I think all of those names go together pretty well. 

4. If you could change your name to anything, what would it be?

I think I could probably pull off Shawna, Anna or maybe Jenny. But out of those three, I think I'd pick Shawna. 

5. You have 4 children, any gender. Their first names all have to start with the same letter. What would their names be?

For this I'm going to choose the letter J. I think that James, Jude, Jesse and Julie are all really nice names. If this baby is a boy, I'd love to name him James but it doesn't go with the middle name that we've picked out. Maybe we will get to use it some time in the future. :)

6. What's your favourite animal-inspired name?

Maybe something like Fawn or Colt. I think those are pretty interesting. 

7. What's your favourite colour-inspired name?

I think that the name Violet is really pretty. Also, I used to babysit a little boy named Grey, which I think is a pretty cool name. 

8. What are your top 3 favourite boy names?

(Again, I'm only putting names that I like, not the actual name of the child I'm carrying. These are names that I like but can't use because I know someone with that name or I know someone that has a child with that name.)

Cameron, Aaron and Hunter. 

9. What are your top 3 favourite girl names?

(Same disclaimer as above.)

Hailey, Allison and Addison.

10. What is your favourite celebrity baby name?

Rachel Bilson has a daughter named Briar Rose, like Sleeping Beauty. So I think that's pretty awesome. 

11. What is your ultimate guilty pleasure name?

I don't really understand what that means. I don't feel guilty about liking names.

12. What are your most hated baby names?

I'm gonna skip this one, too. 

13. Choose a baby name based on a food/drink.

I think the name Bree (like Brie) is pretty. I'd like it to be short for Breanna. 

14. Choose a baby name based on a month.

Since I was born in April, I'm gonna choose that. :)

15. Choose a baby name from a movie.

When I was younger, I really loved the movie "Ella Enchanted". In the beginning of the movie, the baby, Ella, was cursed with the gift of obedience. I loved Ella as a character, so I'm going with Ella. 

16. Choose a name that is already in your family.

My cousin has a daughter named Loralei, which always makes me think of Gilmore Girls. But that's okay because I loved that show. :) 

This was such a fun way to share names that I love but can't/won't use! If you're interested in filling it out, please do! And leave a link! I'd love to see your answers!
