Choosing a perfect name for your little one can be totally nerve-wracking. One day, the one you carried in mind for the past 9 months just doesn’t feel right anymore, and you’re back to searching for a new one.

Of course, many parents bear a great deal of confidence in their baby name choice, but it’s totally normal to have second thoughts. A survey conducted by Mumsnet.com found that almost one-fifth of parents in the UK would opt for a different name for their child if they had a chance.

The reason according to the survey is 25% of regret because the name was “too common,” and 21% of regret was caused by a name which “just didn’t feel right.”

The best way to avoid such thoughts is to think about it in advance. So before registering your baby a name, do your homework. You can check whether a name’s popularity is trending up or down on sites like BabyNameWizard.com and Nameberry.com. Make sure the name you want is not super popular at the moment, because if it is, the chances are you’ll be hearing everywhere wherever you go!

Nurses And Midwives Reveal 40 Baby Names That They Tried To Talk The Parents Out Of My classmate's mother was a maternity nurse, and she once had a couple who wanted to name their son 'Collin,' but wanted to give him a unique spelling. So they chose to spell it C-O-L-O-N. They tried to name their son Colon — as in, the organ attached to your anus. When my classmate's mother explained this to them, they were painfully embarrassed, and asked her to just use the usual spelling instead. I don't think they'll ever live it down

Nurses And Midwives Reveal 40 Baby Names That They Tried To Talk The Parents Out Of Back in 2000-2004 I worked at a hospital doing admin and an ol' battleaxe of a senior midwife stomped over with this angry-looking pregnant teenager in tow.

"Varvara!" Old Battleaxe roared. "Varvara, open up that internetty-thing on your computer!"

Old Battleaxe did not know computers, but she was well scary, so I agreed, and opened up the internetty-thing.

"Show this ridiculous child the first picture that appears when you type in the word Chanterelle!"

The angry pregnant teenager whined about how it was a pretty name and loads of girls were naming their little girl it, and then went stone-dead silent when she saw picture after picture of nasty sulphur-yellow mushrooms sprouting out of muddy forest floors.

"Told you! It's a [friggin] fungus!" Old Battleaxe roared, and stamped off to be Terrifying and Sensible at other pregnant teenagers, leaving me with the angry one.

Turned out that the name she had actually been thinking of was Chardonnay, which is both the name of very expensive wine and the name of a character in a UK soap opera called Footballers Wives, which was about as classy as it sounds.

The baby got that as a middle name later on, which was fine, the first name was Sophie or something along those lines.

After all, we all learn to love names. You see, it’s usually not the name per se which bugs us, but a person we know who bears that particular name. If we don’t like the person, we’d probably have the same feeling about that name.

So, imagine that a child who you and your family adores to the moon and back will forever be precious no matter the name you give. In the end, some people just won't get that name you picked and that’s also fine.

I hate also when families keep naming everybody the same. I get using a middle name if you want to honour a relative. But having three generations under one roof that are called the same is simply stupid. In my family there are two couples of father/son and one mother/daughter that are called the same. Its maddening. One of them had a baby and at least had the common sense of giving him a proper name and then keep the dads name as a middle name. My greatgrandma, grandma and mum were also called the same. When I was born my grandma wanted me to be called like that as well. My mum refused. Sorry four women in a row with the same name is too much. The point of names is to have a sense of individuality.
