I’ve been reading your BabyNames site for a while and I really enjoy it. I have a question about the name Christian. Can it be just a name, not connected with religious views of a person who bears it or his/her relatives? Read More

Pete the Cat: Pete at the Beach is a delightful escape for many of us caught in this particularly horrible winter. My preschooler was drawn to a new book in a favorite series, and I was drawn to anything involving sun, sand, and some faint memory of what life is like when not buried under snow. Read More

Hello,
My boys are 2.5 years apart and we wanted to give them strong Persian names. Our oldest is Darius (Dariush) and our youngest is Darian. I loved their names until recently when people/strangers started commenting on how similar they are, and it’s confusing. Read More
Hi Jennifer!
I love your site; it’s Internet candy for me! I have a quick question about my middle name: Alyda. It’s tough to find name meanings for it and I have no idea what the origin of it is. Read More

Hi Jennifer,
My husband and I have a last name ending in –er so I always said I would NEVER name a child something ending in –er to avoid the rhyming sound.
