how did your child get his/her name?
I recently found out that my neighbor, who lives across the street from me, has a granddaughter named Natalie. The little girl must be around two years old but I remember my neighbor telling me that when her daughter was pregnant, she used to download games to play on her computer till late into the night.
At the time, I was very curious. Her daughter didn’t strike me as a computer game addict but her mother swears she does nothing all day but play the game, Natalie Brooks – Mystery at Hillcrest High. So when I found out that the woman had named her daughter after the main character in the game, Natalie.
And that’s not all. My neighbor tells me there’s another young woman down the street from us who has a daughter named Fiona. Frankly the only Fiona I remember is from the movie Shrek. But my neighbor assures me it’s not that Fiona the little girl is named after, it’s Fiona Finch and the Finest Flowers, a new computer game that’s really fun to play.
I think it’s pretty cute to name a child after a hobby or a passion. Then there will always be a story to tell when your child asks where they got their name
