4 Unique Ways To Choose A Unique Name For Your Baby Boy
Has that moment finally arrived? Congratulations! You can finally stop worrying about pregnancy, labor and all the blah; finally, you are now the proud, beaming (and exhausted) parents of a baby boy!
Unique Baby Boy Names:
But it isn’t over yet, is it? Now starts the first of many decisions you will have to make as parents – choosing a unique name for boys. If you’re still going through pregnancy and trying to have at least a list of probable names – congratulations to you for being the early birds. It is indeed a blessing if you can decide on a name that is unanimous, unique and liked by all.
I suggest you – the parents – do it before any of your aunties or the dhobi names your boy Ramprasad or Vijay!
Choosing a good name is a very significant pseudo-ritual as it is the first thing you ever gift to your child. He will carry and announce and identify with it his entire life! To quote my mother (who chose to name me Maanasi;I believe she was still groggy due to the anesthesia!), a child’s name has a lasting impression on the person he or she will become. It influences his character and nature.
