Choosing a child’s name is one of the hardest decisions any parent has to make. The tradition of naming a child after a saint or a relative has passed and modern parents have no limitations to their imagination when it comes to making this important decision.

There are just a few things to consider when choosing a name;
Family heritage on both sides
How the first name matches up with the family name
If you are picking a middle name, does it flow with the first and last name and what will the initials spell out.
Can you shorten the name and will you be happy with that name sticking instead of the given name you have chosen.
How did you handle the naming process with your children?
