978.0. "An "R" name for a girl" by NODEX::PINCK::GREEN (Long Live the Duck!!!) Wed Jan 25 1995 16:37

    
    Hi...  
    
    We found out that we are having a girl, so everything
    has become much more real for us.  Time to seriously
    start trying out names.
    
    We are looking for a girls name that begins with 
    the letter "R".
    
    As our last name is Green, the name Rose (actually the name
    of my Nan who we are naming after) is out...  Rose Green would
    just not be fair. :-)
    
    Rachel (a favorite name of mine) is also out as we have
    a niece with that name.
    
    Instead of me listing what we have been thinking of, how 
    about I just wait and see if there are any suggestions.
    
    The middle name will begin with "P" but I am not too worried
    about how the whole name sounds together...  
    
    Amy
    
    P.S.  I have an Aunt whose name is Rose Pinck (by marriage),
    she never hears the end of the jokes :-)!

T.R	Title	User	Personal Name	Date	Lines
978.1	How about Rene'	MKLC::SHELTON		`Wed Jan 25 1995 17:24`	4
	My daughter's middle name is Rene', which I love! Rachel is also pretty! Mary
978.2	Rebecca?	LANDO::REYNOLDS		`Thu Jan 26 1995 12:08`	1
	I like Rebecca Green!
978.3		NODEX::PINCK::GREEN	Long Live the Duck!!!	`Thu Jan 26 1995 12:18`	14
	Actually, Rebekah (sp?) was high on the list... Rebekah Paige sounds nice and it is actually the english translation of the Hebrew name. My only problem is whether it is to umm.... prissy (no insult intended) or not... I have had bad experiences with a Renee' :-) and as I said, Rose Green just doesn't seem fair! :-) This is actually kind of fun! Amy
978.4	Robin	MROA::DYSON		`Thu Jan 26 1995 14:57`	5
	How about Robin... Robin Pagie... I think that sounds nice
978.5	Remember that there's nicknames	CSC32::DUBOIS	Trust in God, but tie your camel	`Thu Jan 26 1995 18:09`	7
	I like Rebekah Paige, but do you like Becky? We tried to pick names that couldn't be nicknamed very easily, because we rarely found a name whose nickname we also liked. Carol
978.6		NODEX::PINCK::GREEN	Long Live the Duck!!!	`Fri Jan 27 1995 15:58`	9
	thanks for all the input... I am not sure how or when we will decide, but I THINK it is between Rebekah and Rachelle (the spelling of neither is decided on either...) Amy
978.7	Our daughter's name is Rebekah Paige	NOVA::MAATTA	Lisa Ann Smith, Oracle Rdb Engineering	`Fri Feb 10 1995 18:29`	6
	Actually... my daughter's name is Rebekah Paige. I like you're spelling. One of the previous replies has a good point though; we didn't particulary want Becky as a nickname, so we started calling her Bekah almost at birth. It's worked well so far! I have to admit though, I almost exclusively call her Rebekah! =-)
978.8	A couple other options...	AMCUCS::MEHRING		`Fri Feb 17 1995 19:51`	18
	Possibilities: Rikki Rosalyn Rita Riva (well, maybe not with Green...) I love Rachelle though! For P names: Paulina Pamela Patricia Paula Have fun! -Cori
