Rank the names you've chosen. If there isn't a clear standout, then it's a good idea to rank the names you like. This will help paint a clear picture of your perspective on each name you've highlighted. Hopefully, from here you and your partner can pick a definite winner!

Respect the culture a name comes from. Sometimes, it isn't appropriate for someone to use a name from a culture that isn't part of their heritage. Take this into careful consideration when picking a baby name. Remember — a name from a foreign culture isn't just some kind of cool thing to make your child eccentric or different. It's a name like any other, with a history and significance to the culture it comes from. Be respectful in your search for a name.

Don't go crazy with spelling. If you want to change up the way a name is spelled, try only changing one or two letters. Making this small change to a name can add a lot of uniqueness and rarity to it. You don't need to add a whole extra syllable or a lot of silent letters. Plus, only changing one or two letters will make it easier for your child to spell their own name.

Communicate with your partner. Assuming your partner is active in your life and plans to be a parent for this child, keep them in the loop when it comes to the name issue. They have the same right as you do to have a say in what their child is named. When you have your list of names you like, share it with them and see what they think. Be honest with them if a name they like isn't to your liking.
