Changing trends in baby names.
Picking the very best baby name and baby name meanings are very important for parents who are eagerly expecting their new member of the family. Often times the decision can be so tough that the baby might even born without a name picked out! Parents that choose to not have the sex of their child divulged during the pregnancy have double duty with having to pick out 2 sets of names. These parents are utilizing internet resources, reading about biblical and religious meanings behind their favorite names, and frantically searching for that one special name that will pop out at them. If you ask new parents how they came up with their baby’s name you will most likely get a wide variety of responses.
Many people simply want baby name that sounds good to the ears, regardless of the meaning or origin. Some parents want their babies name to be significant with religion or cultural beliefs. While some parents, in my own humble opinion, just want to be weird.
It’s also becoming quite popular to use a mix of cultures and origins to come up with modern names. The one that sticks out easily is the use of “Marie” in a baby girl’s name. It’s not uncommon anymore to hear a name such as Dominique Marie, a paring of both classical French and Spanish girl’s names.
If you are trying to find that special name for your baby, the easiest way to browse a large variety of names at one is by using the internet. There are hundreds of book out there with baby name lists, however why spend money on something you can find for free online? There are thousands of websites that have a huge variety of baby name databases, that won’t cost you a trip to Barnes and Nobles or $12.95 plus tax. Many of these sites also publish the origins and the meanings behind baby names. This is especially important for parents that want their child’s name to have personal, religious or cultural meaning. Aside from baby name meanings, baby names websites also go into greater detail by giving the history, pronunciation and any religious or cultural references behind the name.
Of course traditional names are still quite popular. Baby names that come from the bible, Koran or other religious doctrines and stories still makes up nearly 25% of all new baby names in the US. In fact many of the names that were slightly altered in lieu of trying to stay modern have actually seen a sharp change back o the original versions to stay authentic to their biblical roots.

I’m very interessted in the celtic culture so one of my sons names is from there. Same about Old norse mythology so my daughters first name is from there. We decided these names together and are very happuy with what our kids are called. My sons name is Alexander Kieran Daniel (kieran being the celtic name) an dmy daughters name is Eir Elise Michaela ( Eir being the Old norse mythology name). The meaning of the names meant a lot. Like Kieran means The Little dark one among other things. There are of course many ways to interpret it. I did it in my own way. Eir is an old norse goddess. The goddess of healing and protector of all healers. other than that Alexander is after my best friend, Daniel after one in my family, Elise after me and Michaela after the father^^
Here we go again! I just spent several hours reading this and many other blogs. My wife says I have no life! I tell her I’m educating myself for when I get old. She said it’s to late for that! Anyways, I wanted to thank you for the great write up here. It was very insightful. I hope to read more of your blog posts in the upcoming months.
