Why you should hire me (for free) as your name consultant!

Guys, I've got to admit, my email inbox has been pretty depressing lately. Everyday I check it to get anywhere from 30-70 emails of spam, spammy spam and extra delicious SPAM in chocolate flavor. To top it off every time I build up my hopes thinking there will be at least *one* email from a person wanting to help with names and there have been hardly any...

So, I'm going to persuade all of you why you should definitely email me:

Naming a child can be really hard. People don't appreciate just how hard. Especially the first one, and anywhere after the 3rd or 4th can be difficult. I'm never going to name your child for you, but I will do this:

I basically do all the research for you! (I've loved names for years and years and years, and have lists upon lists of different names)
-If you give me 3+ names you like, so I have an idea of what you'll like, i'll provide you a huge list of other names I think you'll like.

-Names with special meanings.

-Commonly liked combinations (first and middles)

I can give you feedback on names you've chosen such as popularity and user-friendliness (and if you ask, just my personal opinion!)

Plus links or books I think will get you in the right track.

Basically, I do HOURS and HOURS (well, it takes me about 1-3 hours to compile a list ;)) of research for you for free. From the bottom of my heart. Because I lovvve naming kids.

Please! Email me, I'm begging! The email is anni.ekate@yahoo.com.au
I won't bite!

(Oh, and to help me differentiate your email from the spam I get, put something to do with 'baby names' in the subject box!)

This reminds me of that movie Harold and Kumar go to white castle and the cop asks them about their odd names. And yes, I agree with Ronda that spammers should die.

Also, if you're looking for really cool names, you may want to look at this:

http://www.fashionfantasygame.com/

It's got weirder names than Star Wars, and is a much better game that Girlsense.

And no, I'm not spamming.

Hey, I saw your blog randomly while looking for baby names. I only have 3 weeks left until we have our 2nd baby boy. My husband and I can't agree on a name. Our 1st sons name is Logan. The names my husband likes right now are Owen and Myles. I like Shaffer, Bentley and Cole. I like different sounding names but am open for more "common" cute ones. Any suggestions? My email is jenabug02@aol.com. Thanks so much!

Most parents spend countless months carefully selecting just the right name for their newborn baby. Unfortunately sometimes the best laid plans go awry. So it's best for them to hire someone like you. :)

We all know that the name is very important in today’s world people initially judged by appearances. so every parents have curious find the for our baby name. I even visit some baby names site.

I couldn't get your email to work so I thought I'd send my letter this way:

Hey there..I saw that you have been busy so I don't know if you will get to this one but I am 8 weeks away and starting to get worried!



I have a little girl Annie and three boys: Bo, Rocco & Roo



I have ideas for girls names but I have used up three boy names already!!! :)



I would like something that sounds cute with Bo, Rocco & Roo.



We are very private about our names because we like to surprise everyone but a little awkward because everyone keeps giving me suggestions & I really don't like any other name...have read about 5 baby name books over & over & looked through THOUSANDS of names on the comp & name apps and seriously can't find one PERFECT name. I actually just like Bobby but my husband really thinks it is wayyyy too plain. But it sounds cute :)



Thanks for listening!
