Choosing Baby Names.

I’m going to show you here why the traditional methods of choosing baby names are not the best way (to say the least) if you want a positive name that will benefit your baby.

Most people choose a baby name in one of these ways:

They look through baby name books and choose a name with a meaning they like.

They name their baby after a relative.

They name their baby after a celebrity.

Here's the problem with all of those methods:
None of them tell you, the parent, how the name will affect the personality traits of your child.

The problem with the meanings in baby name books is that they are extremely brief.

I think the books are ideal for giving you inspiration and a wide choice of names, but don't make your choice based on the meanings they give. I'll share with you how to find out the in-depth meanings of names soon.

The drawback of naming your baby after a relative is that most people don't think about whether that relative was a good person with a healthy, happy life. They feel a sense of obligation or sentimentality when they decide to name their little one after Great Grandad John or Aunty Paula. Do you even know whether your Great Grandad had a happy life?

Isn't it more important that your baby girl or boy has a name that will benefit them in their life?

The same goes for the idea of naming a child after a favorite celebrity! Let's face it, how many of us really want our offspring to follow in the footsteps of the famous? How many of them are actually happy and fulfilled? Fame can be a very hollow experience.

Discover the true meaning of any baby name

Why not choose a baby name based on whether it FEELS and SOUNDS good to you (gut instinct can be a very useful tool!) and then to be certain about how the name affects your child you can read your baby's FULL name meaning using name numerology. That way, you are combining intuition with logic which is a powerful combination!
