Hello...
I have always thought I would have a boy first. I'm a tomboy and a nerd, I work with computers and it just always seemed to me I'd have a boy. It's much easier to find a name that has subtle roots in Sci Fi for a boy, and we had a couple we liked (Montgomery, Riker).
But - we are 30 weeks pregnant with a girl! And I'm having a heck of a time finding a name we like.
I'm hopeful that someone out there might have some ideas. I'm not looking for anything crazy here. Every time I tell somebody we are looking for a Sci Fi related baby girl name, they suggest Uhura. I'm just not interested in REALLY out there names!
These are the girl names we have so far - none of them feels "perfect" yet. Please help with ideas???
ARWEN RENEE MCCORMICK
Arwen is from Lord of the Rings. It's also Welsh, and I have Welsh roots. Renee is after my Nana (grandmother). It's currently my favorite of the three.
EZRI ? MCCORMICK
Ezri is from Star Trek Deep Space Nine (Ezri Dax). I do like this name, and it does seem to fit as we are Jewish and it has Jewish roots. It just doesn't feel like THE name, you know?
LARA ELLE MCCORMICK
Lara-El is Superman's (Kal-El's) mom. So I adapted it to Lara Elle. I do love how subtle it is - nobody would ever, ever guess that it's a Sci Fi name
Please help me out with ideas, but also let me know what you think of these names! I've also recently realized I could actually use Montgomery for a girl, though if it had been a boy it would have been MONTGOMERY SCOTT MCCORMICK.
Thanks!!!!!!!
