    My cousin is having her third child this April and she still has not found any names shes keen on.
    I thought I would see if anyone has any ideas because so far all suggestions have failed. She us having a boy and I hoping this post will allow me to compile her a list.

    She likes strong boys names, nothing unisex, nothing girly. She wants originality but also a name that means something. (Not to fussy then ;))

    I will appreciate any input, thanks

    Also just in general what are you favourite baby names and why? My daughters name is shayna I named her whilst I was pregnant and when she was born it still fit. It means beautiful and she is

    I love the way that in the US you can call a boy or a girl literally anything! In my country we have a restricted list of names and there's no April or Sunshine options, we are stuck with regular names. I don't know what name I would call a child, maybe one of those Indian names like moon-water or similar. :)

    Wow thank you for your post because I found it really ineresting. I am from the UK but we don't have any restriction here either. I just find it shocking that you are unable to name yor child as you wish.
    What is the reasoning behind this and where are you from?

    I have one daughter and three sons. They are called Nathan John, Alfie James and Freddie Michael. I didn't pick any for their meanings but John is my grandad's name and Michael is my Dad's name. I found finding names for a boy harder than I found finding names for a girl.
