Choosing a new name can be very trying

[MaryCarly]

I just received my order from MyTwinn. I bought some of those adorable Cuddly dolls. I like the names that the girls came with, but the boy needs a new name. He is called Michael by the MyTwinn company, but I already have a full sized MyTwinn doll named Michael.

This is the name I am thinking of for my new boy:

LukeLeeGrantZacaharyTaylorThomasRyan

Do you like it? You don't think it is too long, do you? [img]smile.gif[/img]

I think it's a great name. My 3 year old son just got a beta fish and named it Bob the builder-muck-lofty-smoky the firehouse dog-uncle sam so I think he would totally approve of your doll's name too!

My kids are insisting that I just pick one name or possible two, but it is SO hard. I think I may have to live with him awhile to see which of the names suits him best.

Of course, I may just get used to saying them all - kind of like that old Mc Donald's commercial - Two all beef patties Special sauce Lettuce Cheese Pickles Onions On a Sesame Seed Bun! LOL

I bought a baby name book from a used book store for $1. It has list of names from every decade in the 20th century and from countries from all over the world, as well as a directory to what every name(and variation) means. Baby name books are great for trying to come up with doll names, as well as finding out what your current doll names mean.

Luke: (Skywalker) also the name of my baby cousin
Lee & Grant: Civil war generals
Zachary Taylor: The twelfth president of the US
Thomas Ryan: The CEO of CVS Pharmacy

Sorry I couldn't resist.

LOL Abigail!

I actually came up with this list of names, because my little boy doll came with a girl doll that looks like she could be his twin. Her name is Savannah, and even though I am Yankee born and bred, I have been here in Virginia for six years . . .
so . . . I went looking for names popular in the south. [img]smile.gif[/img]

These were my favorite southern names, though I did wonder at the popularity of Grant. You would think that name would be a no no ever since "The War of Northern Agression" (aka The Civil War.) [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I could say that the name Luke came from the Bible, but I actually love it ever since the movie French Kiss. Kevin Kline plays a Frenchman who says that his name is "LLuuuK" with the L and the U drawn out and a sharp accented K on the end. I have been wandering around the house making the doll say his name for my kids. They already said that he looks creepy so I am having SO much fun ! ! ! [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img]

Wow, what an interesting name. [img]wink.gif[/img] I have a friend who has five names before his last name (his first name and four middle names). His middle initials spell out MAYO. It's funny. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

(Oh, BTW--I sent you a reply about your PM a few days ago. [img]smile.gif[/img] )
