Choosing the perfect baby name for your unborn child can be a grueling task. There’s so many things you ask yourself, and your partner, before you decide and agree on that perfect name. How many names to decide on, should we include that middle name, is it going to be a boy or a girl, when he/she is at school will they have difficulty learning to spell their name, does it rhyme with anything that can be ridiculed by the school bully? There are so many factors to choosing your unborn child’s name, but the main one is that both partners are happy with the final decision.

There are the lucky couples who know exactly what they’ll call their first, second, third born & so on! A regular favourite is for the baby to inherit a name that already runs in the family. This “baby name rule” certainly applied in my family and I’m sure it will continue.

For the other couples out there who spend months if not years rummaging through baby name books and trawling hundreds of internet website’s that promise to find you that perfect baby name, this post may help you out!
