GARLAND JAMES & HOLIDAY KATE (Christmas babies)

image by KattiesKreation

I knew there was something I forgot to do. I forgot to wish you guys a Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas! No, I’m just kidding, although I do hope you had a wonderful Christmas. And no, I haven’t completely lost my mind either. I do know that it is almost Valentine’s Day.

Did you read this Christmas baby name post at Youcantcallitit? How about this one at nameberry? These posts and several others on name blogs made me wonder if parents were influenced by the holidays in naming their Christmas babies. I tracked babies born on or around Christmas and found out most parents aren’t influenced at all, but I did find some that screamed Christmas (some louder than others). What do you think? Would you ever give your baby a seasonal name? What’s your favorite? Mine would have to be Holiday.

If you like these, come back around Easter.  I’ll probably have found some Valentine’s day inspired birth announcements for you then. 

OOH, LA LA (French Word Names)

 

– image by graphiquesepia

Boheme. Ciel. Rouge.

What do these names have in common?  They are all French words that have been used as first  or middle names.    Apparently, Prune (French for Plum) is being used over in France, but that one wouldn’t work over here for obvious reasons.

I’ll admit it.  I love these.  Paris is one of my favorite cities and I have a love for all things French, which is why I named our site Name Soiree.  Girls Gone Child’s twins recently added to this list with the birth of twin daughters Boheme Shalom & Reverie Lux.  Model Niki Taylor has a daughter named Ciel Taylor.   Child actress (now all grown up) has the unusual appellation of Soleil Moon Frye.
