This translated article depends on a conversation with Colin Swagin, Author “”Naming Bebe: Interactive Guide to choosing the name of the child you love.“It was liberated for length and clarity.
The idea of giving siblings Matching names Not anything new, but social media helped the idea widely spread. As an active name on Instagram and Tiktok, I hear from many parents who are interested in creating an ideal set of brothers of names. Parents believe that names can create family cohesion and loneliness.
It can be the creation of a fun brother’s group But it can also create tension for parents. Here is what you think when creating a brother group, and how you know when the path should be changed – and this is something I had to do while naming my three children.
Remember that brotherhood groups are not the end of everything
I worked with a The mother who has regretted one of the names of her children. It was not that she did not like the name – she did not think he was identical to the names of her other children. She was even thinking about changing her child’s name.
I mentioned that a group of brothers of names is not the end of everything. Our children will spend most of their lives Current independent From the group of brothers. I never want parents to be busy with the cohesion of their children.
Decide what unites your brother’s group
The easiest way to create a collection of brotherhood names is to think about the category of a pattern of names you want. If you are in classic names like John, you will go well with other classics, such as Dorothy.
Or you can focus on the meanings of the name. Names inspired by nature like Sky and Juniper can make brotherhood groups good, for example.
Another option is to think about length. I find that the names of four letters often go well together. At the same time, it is okay to collect short and long names if they have a similar pattern. I love the ADA and Bernadette brothers group, for example.
An accuracy that has a long way
When I worked with the children’s company Jojo Maman Bébé On what he does and what does not matter to the brotherhood groups, the parents stated that the accuracy has a long way. If your topic is very suitable, it can coincide with cheese.
I will never call the Goldie, Violet, Scarlett, or Brotheers Bear and Fox – this is very little on the nose for me. The same thing can happen with the names that look very similar, such as banks, Brooks, Adeline and Caroline. If there are multiple messages common to names, they may be very close.
Do not be afraid to change the path
I was named the oldest of my child, Rori, imagined a group of traditional Irish names. But when I got to know more children and families in my hometown outside Boston, I realized that the Irish names that I loved were very common to my taste. So, she occupied the traditional English names and is now Ruri, Jani and George.
I see parents very concerned about equality in naming and anxiety about the child’s feeling. This thinking can link parents in a specific designation pattern. If you start with two names J, you may find yourself a follower Dujar Steps and giving all your children J to a head. But remember that you are not obligated to continue any patterns, and personally I don’t think your children will mind.
Do not fight true love
Thinking about the brotherhood group can help you guide you while choosing the name for your second, third or sixth child. However, sometimes, you will discover a suitable name for your new addition – even if it does not match their brothers.
I see this a lot with celebrities. Actress Ashley Tinsale, for example, has two daughters called Jupiter (who feels excessive, majestic, rare) and Emerson (which is much more). Sometimes, you cannot fight the name that feels comfortable.
