With MashAllah a big khandaan and social circle, it was hard for us to decide on a name that no one had, and I didn't want to pick one just because no one had it. It had to be a name I liked. So anyway, we did find one for a girl that is unique amongst family and friends. And there are about 100 people due around the same time we are, so we've been letting everyone know our plan, so that it doesn't get taken!
I don't know what we'll do if it's a boy.
ooh, what is it? what is it?
carpdiem- you're not alone! i'd be upset too. it takes a lot of effort to find a name that's pretty and original in a sea of similarity.
