Could A Traditional Name Help Your New Baby Sleep?

As we all know what we name our babies can affect him, her, or God help you both them for the rest of their lives. Do you remember the song by Johnny Cash named A Boy Named Sue? Do you remember how this guy was tormented all his life because he was given a girl's name to toughen him up.

Would Sue have made the same choice if he had the opportunity? Possibly but most probably not. I have on occasion thought that a child should be able to pick his or her own name regardless. Can you imagine sleeping baby Kid Rock or would napping baby Scary Spice?

When my son was born I was accosted by administrative type right when my wife was leaving the labor room. I had forgotten what we wanted to name him and I was in a fright. My wife was still on goofy juice. She thought that he would have to make his way through life nameless.

Some parents have gone crazy naming their children names so unique that they make no sense at all, except to them. They claim that the googleability of their child's name may become VERY relevant when they being job hunting. Do ya think that this is a little obsessive? Dah!

A name should have dignity at the very least. Traditional names are safe. Something funky will always -- or better said -- eventually get you in trouble. Like Dweezil or Moon Unit, these are real people's names I might add, and are siblings wouldn't you know.

A person's name should also be easy. Simply stated, it needs to be easy for others to spell and pronounce. Learning to spell English is hard enough because of the awkward spellings. Use a J for a J sound and not a G. This is your opportunity to make a good decision. Decide well.

Large families have an added factor. Giving your child one name over the another's might upset Great Uncle Ling Ling. Don't give in to the stresses others may cause you. Do it your way.

No kidding! The act of naming a baby boy or girl is very serious. The name you choose for your sleeping baby should function for you and the child. Imagine calling your little one at the neighbors -- Optimus Prime come home and mow the yard. It boils down to choosing a name that gets you and your baby to sleep throughout the night.
