  • Name Pronunciation

    Hi Jennifer! Sometimes when I’m looking at names on this site I’m not 100% certain of their pronunciation. Is there a way for you to add a sound bite or a pronunciation key to the names? I’m sure that would be a big task to undertake… I love this site. I’ve been coming here for…

  • An Easy Way to Get Your Prenatal Vitamins In

  • Boy Named Summer

    Hi Jennifer, My son was born on June 23 which is the date of summer arrival in lunar calendar. I would like to give him a meaningful name “Summer” but my hubby think it’s a girl name. Is it only for girl? If a boy name Summer, is it weird? Do you have any good…

  • Baby in a Longboard? Check it out!

    Strollers manufacturers are constantly trying to outdo one another, and this one is no exception.

  • Kelly: Boy’s or Girl’s Name?

    Dear Jennifer, I have been looking at the name Kelly quite often lately because of my interest in genealogy – and I have found that in my genealogy most, if not all, of the Kellys are male, something I find interesting. I am aware that it is originally a male name, so my questions are,…

  • Message from the Name Angel: Don’t do this!

    Dear Jennifer, My husband loves the name Heaven Leigh. But our last name is Messenger, so her name would be Heaven Leigh Messenger. I don’t know if that just sounds ridiculous. I have read many things about the name Heaven, from “it’s beautiful,” to “it sounds like a strippers name.” I don’t know if I…

  • Two First Names?

    Hi Jennifer, I’m just over 3 months along with my second child and my husband and I are slightly disagreeing about a girl’s name. We’ve decided on Abraham for a boy but for a girl we like Lottie Ann. What we’re disagreeing about is that I want to go with Lottie Ann as the first…
