What to Consider When Choosing an Exotic Baby Name

When it comes time to choose a name for baby, you should slow down and take your time. Some names will grow on you, while others might feel right the very first time. If you’ve been searching for exotic baby names, consider a few things before making your final choice.

First, think about how the first names you’re considering work with baby’s last name. Practice the full name together, listening to the flow of the name and sound of the syllables together. Go through this process again when choosing middle names, too. Next, look at the initials of all of the names you like together with the last name to make sure you don’t unintentionally spell a word. Last, but certainly not least, think about any nicknames that might come from exotic names you like. If you love Luca, but don’t love Luke, it’s good to be prepared.

From there, all you have to do is practice saying the final name you think you’ve chosen to see if it sounds like The One. If it feels right, you’ve done it! If not, keep looking, because this is one name you’ll want to love as much as baby.
