Top 5 Rejected Names

November 29, 2006 · Filed Under Uncategorized 

Now that we know we’re having a boy, the search for a name has begun in earnest. I’ve been looking through the family history, back to the 1600’s, and have compiled a list of names that probably won’t make the final cut:

  1. Abijah
  2. Alfred
  3. Caleb
  4. Lloyd
  5. Shubael

Helpful, eh? Kandis and I have discussed some names that might be worthy of a short list, which will be finalized in the coming months (or sooner).

Now, I feel compelled to add a disclaimer so that those of you whose name might be in this list won’t get too worked up. I don’t dislike the names, and I think some of them are quite distinguished. None of them seem quite right for us, though. So, to all of you Abijahs out there who might stumble upon this blog: please don’t take offense. Your name is great, we just won’t be using it for our child. Thanks!
