2 part ?

[~PICKLE~]

1st part is what are some nicknames you call your children?
For some dumb reason, I guess cause I'm from texas, when i want my sons attention, I call him Bubba. Why I do not know, it just comes out that way. His offical nickname is PickleReed.

2nd part- Some know I'm having a baby soon, I need help!!!! We're down to 3 names and my husband is no help. My son Choses a different name everytime we ask. So I'll post my 3 names, can you help me narrow it down, PLEASE I'll leave out the last name though.

#1 Karmen Suzanne "Jaycee" - call her Jaycee
( Named after his mom, my mom, his Dad and my step dad)
#2 Jaycee Lane
#3 Tae'gan Lane

When my baby was first born my mum want ed to know the name right away. It took us two weeks to decide. The doctor took the pressure off by telling my mum"his name is Precious"

As a new born I also called my baby buba or lil-lil(cause he was so cute and small). My husband calls him rooopes. It started out being dooopes as in duplicate, but has since become rooopes. It's funny.

Is #1, three names with Jaycee bing one of the middle names?
or are those two names her given names and you call her something different?

My hubby and I went round and round about baby names. He HATES 'trendy' names. So to find something that he considered 'not trendy' was a challenge. He would probably say that both Jaycee and Taegan are trendy

You seem to like Jaycee, so I would go with that. If you're worried that including one grandparent in the name and not the other might offend someone then don't use those names at all.

If you give her 3 names then she's going to have a horrible time when it comes to standardized tests and drivers license and everything else that is printed in a standardized form. Make it easy on her...just pick 2

All that being said, I say go with Jaycee Lane. It's very cute. And none of the grandparents get offended.

Love, Heather

Oh, nicknames!

Emily : Em, Emy, Emy-poo, Noodle, Pretty

Eden : Edy-poo, Punkin, Pretty...also known as The Edenator by one of our best friends

Love, Heather

Nicknames: My little girls name is Taylor. We use to call her Taylor-Tot (like tator tots). Now it has been shortened to just "Tot"

 

[sioleabha]

My daughter is "Boo-Bear" or "Boo." No idea why, it happened before I got there. But she really liked seeing Monsters, Inc. where the little girl was called Boo.

My sons don't really have nicknames. I was going to call Seamus "Shae," but it just doesn't fit him. It's almost feminine, and the kid's gonna be a linebacker.

For your little girl, I like Jaycee Lane the best. I would not use Tae'gan because it's not a real name. But that's just my preference. Taegan or Teagan, however, is a lovely Irish version of a Welsh name which means "beautiful."

 

[E-beth]

I like Teagan personally, but that wasn't one of the choices, was it???

I went through the name struggles as well. My husband wanted to name my son after every dead relative in the tree. I wanted the name to have meaning. So I pushed fro Matthew (it means "gift from God") and we fought for the middle name. I wanted Robert, after my grandfather. He liked Paul, Christopher, Roberts, etc. So we settled on Roberts, his family last name and my grandpa's name too.

Before we knew Matt was a boy, he was called "peanut". Now I call him "Matt-Moo" "Bubby", "Baby Boy", and "Matt-Chew"

 

[Jenna]

My daughter's name is Annabelle. She isn't named after anyone, unless you count her middle name. My mother and my husband's mother both have the middle name of "Lynn", so we gave it to Anna to include the two of them.

As far as nicknames go, we call her all sorts of things....
Anna, Anna-banana, punkin, lil bit, monster. *laughs* Oh, and she calls herself "Princess Annabelle". lol

 

[Blessed5]

I have a Bugga-boo whose 6, A Cutiepatooty-Sweetiepateetie who just turned 5, and a nine month old who gets called either Sweetcuppincakes or Sarahlicious

As far as baby names.........I'd go with Jaycee Lane

 

[karla]

My son's nickname is "little man"
My daughter's nickname is "baby doll"

I like the name Jaycee Lane

 

[Svt4Him]

Name him/her something that, when they grow up they won't be thinking "What were my parents thinking?" It's nice if you want to call you child Jamacia (my 2nd cousin) but realize the child is going to get a lot of extra teasing because of it. Why on earth any parent would want to do that is beyond me.

I like the name Teagan/Tegan, but not with the apostrophe. Carmen Suzanne is nice too (not sure about the Karmen spelling though, she will be constantly re-spelling her name for everyone!). good luck with the naming!

 

[~PICKLE~]

you know, After alot of you have said Jaycee Lane, I like it more and more. I think my husband does to, he just won't give me a final answer.

 

[BeanMak]

Adding my 2 cents to the pot-
Tae'gan makes me think of Tigan- which is an antinausea medication. Sorry- that is the association that comes to mind.

Not to highjack the thread- I have to agree with Svt4Him. I know a 45 yo man who to this day is still called Peewee. I kinda cringe. My oldest is Daniel Frank. I worked HARD not to have people call him Danny. (He is Dan or Daniel) What is it with southern folk and nick names?

 

[~PICKLE~]

I don't know, I'm the only one of 4 kids that doesn't have a nickname. My oldest sister is lee- lee my other sister is Peewee and my brother is Bubba or turd. For me and my son, it just comes out, sometimes without me realizing it.

 

[BeanMak]

LOL.. and turd is a term of endearment??

 

[Living4Him03]

definitely Jaycee Lane, that is so cute!

 

[~PICKLE~]

T hank ya'll for your replies, I'm due in 3 weeks and I was afraid I wouldn't have a name picked out.
