Names for Girls and Boys - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Well, I'm an aunt.

The baby surprised everyone by being born a boy, as opposed to a girl, which was what the ultrasound technicians had insisted upon.

He doesn't have a name yet because in Ukraine parents are given a month to decide.

I'm really fond of Peregrin and Beren at the moment. And Estel, of course.

Congratulations on auntie status, Lush.

I like Beren and Estel, too.....what about Thorin? (It's based on a real, as opposed to Tolkien-created name, comes from the Norse Þórinn)

Congratulations Lush! That's awesome. Have you seen him yet? I bet he's adorable.

Time for me to stop gushing, anyways, I always liked the name Maia for a girl. The good thing about it is you wouldn't ever know it was a Lord of the Rings name, unless your mind works in the same way that most of ours do.

For boys though, I'm no help. I'd want to name him something boring like Tom, though Sam would be a good name, I suppose.

Congratulations, Lush! I hope wee Peregrin Beren Thorin Estel and his mommy are both doing well.

Don't you just love ultrasound techs?
