5 Introduction
Choosing a name for your future pride and joy is a very difficult and lasting decision. A name is chosen by sound, meaning and origin by parents many times having to do with religion, ethnicity and a lot of different factors. Deciding on a strong, meaningful name that fits your child can be a mind boggling task , but it doesnt have to be. Pregnancy is one of the most beautiful things in life and it is very exciting to know a tiny being with the same eyes, lips and mouth as you is on its way. It is amazing to think of the many changes and growth that occurs to the fetus each month and the most joyous to find out the gender! This is the time when most parents began to ponder about possible names, first and middles name combination and how they will sound with the last name, which of course cannot be chosen. The key thing to picking the perfect name for you little one should reflect on a strong meaning and a name reflects a person for the rest of their life. Taking all of these things in account, finding a name is a very fun time and involves a lot of creativity and begins the bonding process with your baby. It is also one of many ways to get the father involved and excited, especially if this is their first. Whether boy or girl enjoy the baby naming process as we have listed many beautiful names from around the globe!
