Baby Boys Names
If you absolutely love a name, but can’t tolerate the nickname that often
goes with it, then think twice. For example, I have a friend who named her son
Michael, even though she hates the nickname, ‘Mikey’. Now the mom spends
far too much time and energy correcting kids, teachers and other parents who refer
to him by the dreaded nickname. It’s just not worth it. Since ultrasound
tests are not always interpreted correctly, All About Baby recommends choosing
names for both sexes. Even when you think the gender is a certainty, it is still
a good idea to have a back up name. Why? Sometimes the name that seemed perfect
during your pregnancy just isn’t the right match when the new baby finally
arrives.
