My son was named after my younger brother. Odd enough when we were growing up we fought alot (me being the middle child, youngest girl, and him the youngest of all three of us). Now we get along great, like best friends, I just miss him being off "fighting the war" and all that, I thought this would be a good way to honor him.


I also found this website and have been looking up names for the past hour or so, maybe it will help someone out that is trying to see what name fits their child best.

My son is Alexander and my daughter is Arianna. Her name is more confused/ incorrect spelling with Adriana. I had to think more about the sound with my sons name, as his last name ends in an "S", with my girl I had to think more about initials.

We've only decided on the first name of our daughter. Her middle name is still up in the air.

My 1st girls middle name is the same as my baby sisters (they are 13 months apart to the day).

My 2nd girl I think her first name just came from being born in the 80's.

My son (the 3rd) is named after his father.
