767.0. "Names for baby Stinson" by NAVIER::SAISI () Tue Feb 25 1992 15:19

    It's still kind of early, but I am looking for both girls and boys
    names to go with Stinson.  We like names that are not currently too
    popular, either old-fashioned or different names are nice.  And standard
    spellings are preferred.  So far the only ones we have come up with
    are:
    
    	Boy: Christopher Todd Stinson
    	Girl: Gwendolyn Brooke Stinson

    Linda,
    
    I'm afraid that Christopher is a *very* popular name for a boy; it's
    been in the "top 10" for years!   I like it - but thought it worth 
    mentioning, since you're specifically looking for names that aren't 
    too popular.  One other thing about Christopher is that it is often
    shortened to Chris and the s's kind of run together in Chris Stinson. 
    Todd, on the other hand, is a nice, moderately popular name.   
    
    Gwendolyn isn't my favorite, but I really like Brooke.   Are you
    looking for long first names (Christopher, Gwendolyn)?   What about
    one of these?:
    
    GIRL: Natalie, Victoria, Elaine, Rita, Catherine, Angela, Jacqueline, 
          Charlotte, Colleen 
    
    BOY:  Gregory, Jeffrey, Phillip, Timothy, Benjamin, Jonathan, 
          Nathaniel  (my fave: Gregory Todd Stinson)
    
    Good luck and best wishes!

767.2Say the name...how does it sound?SELL1::FAHELAmalthea Celebras/Silver UnicornWed Feb 26 1992 17:1310
    I like the name Gwendolyn, but "Gwendolyn Stinson" - too many "n"'s. 
    And since it would be shortened to either Gwen or Lynn, there is still
    the "n" problem - "Gwen Stinson", "Lynn Stinson".  The same goes with
    "Benjamin Stinson" in .1., although I agree that "Chris Stinson" has
    too many "s"'s.
    
    I DO like the name Gregory, and think that IT goes GREAT with Stinson. 
    I would still think of another girl's name.

767.3NAVIER::SAISIWed Feb 26 1992 19:3410
    Oo, I really like Gregory Todd too.  Thanks for pointing out the "n"
    and the "s" problem, I wasn't saying the shortened versions of the
    first name together with the last name.  We are thinking of lot's of 
    boys names.  Other ones we liked are Carl and Theodore with maybe Scott
    as a middle name, but that makes the initials TSS.  The girls are
    harder, maybe because boys names tend to be more staid.  I will bring
    home the girls name list in .1 and bring in the list of other girl's
    names we are considering.
    	Thanks,
    	    Linda
767.4Naming Rules by K.C. FahelCIVIC::FAHELAmalthea Celebras/Silver UnicornThu Feb 27 1992 12:149
    That is one of my rules of picking names...always think of ALL versions
    of possible nicknames, initials, etc. WITH the last name.  That is how
    my husband and I came up with our choices (all we need is a baby to put
    the list to!).
    
    (My other rules are - the name must have a reason, and must "grow"
    well...but these are my own personal rules.)

767.5Pamela?? Martha?? Audrey?? RTOEU::KRICKSThere is no place like home....Fri Feb 28 1992 07:5612
    For girls names - how about?? : 
    
    Pamela (Brooke) Stinson
    Martha (Brooke) Stinson
    Audrey (Brooke) Stinson

    These names I think are uncommon but not too too different.
