957.0. "Help w/Boy names" by SOLVIT::MONTERIO () Wed Aug 17 1994 14:21

    Hi,
    
    I am due in January with my first.  We had no problem with
    finding great girl's names but having a tough time with 
    boys names.
    
    The last name is  ----  Monterio.  I don't necessarily
    want ethnic sounding names for Monterio, though.
    
    I'm pretty open for any suggestions!
    (My husband's other 2 children are names Christopher & Carrie.)
    
    Thanks,
    Kathy

957.1How about...COMET::ARAGONThu Aug 18 1994 13:5813
    Hi Kathy - 
    	I think boys names are harder to pick out too.  Are you looking
    for something traditional or something unique?  Maybe there are some
    family names you would like to consider.  Several of my friends have
    used their father's or grandfather's names as middle names.  My
    boyfriend is named after his great-grandfather, Michael Mathew, and I
    love his name.  I think it sounds strong.  Some other names that I have
    heard lately include Dillon, Zachary or Zachariah, Alexander,
    Christian, and Nicholas.  I think it is important to look at what his
    initails will be and what nicknames can be derived from his name.  How
    about Michael Dean, Christian Mathew, Dillon James, Joshua Thomas??
    Let me know what kind of criteria you're working with.  
    Congratulations!  Gail

    Hi,
    
    I'm looking for something traditional or unique!!  I guess I'm open
    to suggestion.  the middle name will be after my husband - Anthony
    
    __________ Anthony Monterio
    
    Boys names seem to be harder to us to pick out for some reason.
    
    thanks for the reply,
    Kathy
    
957.3Some ideas...AMCUCS::MEHRINGThu Aug 18 1994 20:2421
Karen,

Well, I like the sound of these with _______ Anthony Monterio:

	Traditional		Less Common

	Michael			Chad
	Paul			Kyle
	Steven			Tyler
	Joseph			Justin
	Martin			Blake
	Nicholas		Carl
	Richard			Kent
	Scott			Parker
	Edward			Jack

By the way, what are your girls' choices? It may help to see what style you
like (although I admit to having different criteria for boys/girls names...).

Good luck in the search,
-Cori

    Cori,
    
    Thanks for the names!  I really like some of them.  
    
    the names we like for a girl are  --  Erica Debra Monterio
    					  Heather Debra Monterio
    					  Shannon Debra Monterio
    					  Erin Debra Monterio
    		       			  Carly Debra Monterio
    			  
    Debra is a family name that we will use for the middle name.  Whether
    it "fits" wonderfully with the first name is not important to us,
    the significance of the middle names (Anthony or Debra) is what
    we want to go with.
    
    
    Keep them coming!!
                                                              
    Kathy
