Baby Name Dilemma

Chris and Heidi Powell are looking for names for their new baby girl - Learn more at https://heidipowell.net/3590

Thanks to my inability to filter this mouth of mine, it is now known that the Powell Pack will be bringing a baby GIRL to this world in November ?. While we are beyond excited (who doesn?t love ruffle buns and bows?), I am totally stressing about one of the most important parts of having a baby: choosing the name!

I am asked on a daily basis if we have names picked out yet. I feel bad answering NO each time, but let?s be honest ? there is some pressure to this decision! A name is important. Once we choose this name for our little girl, she is stuck with it for life ? or at least for18 years, at which point she can go change it if she doesn?t like what we chose. LOL.

Let?s face it: humans are judgmental creatures. If a name is tease-worthy, you better believe that little 6 year old is going to get teased on the playground. What parent in their right mind wants to give a child a name that might add to their risk of getting teased or bullied?

As adults, we also judge based on names. Before we get to know a person, the only bit of info we have to judge by is their name. Some names sound powerful, some sound weak. Some sound prissy, and some sound sassy. Some are boring, some are wacko. As a parent, how can I be sure that the name I choose for this little innocent bundle of joy helps her more than it hurts her?

Oh the joys and stresses of parenthood.

I need your help with some suggestions! Please, please, PLEASE comment here with your baby names. Heck, I?ll even throw in a prize of some sort?I don?t know what yet, but if you throw out a winning name, and you’re the first one to suggest it, I will contact you after the baby is born and send you something awesome ;). Be sure to suggest a first, middle and last name!

Other Things to consider:

Matix and Marley both start with M. Cash is a C (obviously). Does baby #4 need to start with a C? If her name starts with an M, will Cash feel left out?

Marley and Cash both have names that come from famous musicians ? Bob Marley and Johnny Cash. Poor Matix is left out. Will we need to make sure NOT to give baby #4 a name that can be related to a famous musician?

So much to think about. When you share your name suggestion, if there is a significance in why you picked it, be sure to let me know!

Comment away!!!!

  1. Well my name, Amber Skye, is a GREAT name, my daughter is Anberlin Syriah. When we finally overcome secondary infertility, if its a girl, her name will be Emma or Amelia. We also liked Ella.

  2. Congratulations! The first name that came into my head was “Cassandra Ann Powell.”
    I am a numerologist and of course had to figure out the energy connected to that name. The name Cassandra totals an 8, which means that she will find herself surrounded by wealthy, powerful and influential people. She will have a mind for business and a drive for success. Her middle name Ann, equals an 11, which is a master number meaning that she carries a strong energy and is a messenger to the world which can lead her to a path of fame. Her last name Powell, also carries the 11 energy so she will be quite an amazing soul and one that has the ability to make a strong impact on the world.
    That is what I picked up just from the name. Her birthdate (once known) will tell of her life path and the gifts and talents she will bring into the world.
    Does this sound like your daughter you are now carrying? If so, this is the name for her. Hope this helps!

  3. Also, If you are worried about matching. Hope(new baby) and Heidi! Cash and Chris! Matrix and Marley! You will have all the basis covered..

  4. I love the names Corrine and Cadence and either goes nicely with Cash!! Maybe Cadence Noel or Corrine Elizabeth. Just some of my favorites!!! Good luck!

  5. I would do a “C” name. How about Cosette? It means “victory of the people” which I think fits your vision and has adorable nick names like Cosi, Coco, Cozy. If all my kids weren’t “A” names I would have gone with Cosette! Congrats!

  6. Hi,
    I like the idea of matching the baby’s name to Heidi’s so I thought Harley (or however you want to spell it). Then for a middle name Jade. So in the end Harley Jade Powell
