Nature Theme BNG

It's Hump Day!!  Yay!  And also time for another BNG!  If you would like to come up with a guest BNG email babynamebloggers(AT)gmail(DOT)com!

 

 

This week's theme is nature names so that is what this BNG will have a lot of in it!  So let's begin :)

 

 

Autumn Rose & Jett Michael has been married for almost 3 years when they decide they are ready to become a family of 3!  It takes them almost 18 months before they get pregnant, they are so happy!  So they are shocked with it's TWINS!  2 girls!

1. Laurel _______ (Flower name) and Aspen ________(another flower name)

 

Shortly after the twins are born Jet get's a job opportunity in Colorado!  Name the town they move to (make it a nature name)

 

Shortly after moving they find out they are pregnant!  Another girl!!!

2. _______ (a nature name) Rose

 

They are content with the 3 girls!  But other plans were set for this family!  Autumn's sister is a single mom to 3 month twins and when she dies in a bad car accident Autumn and Jet decide to take the twins in.  The twins (boy and girl) had nature/flower names.  Ones initials are PL and the others is MR.  3. What are their names?

 

The couple gets a dog 5 months later and want to name it in honor of Autumn's sister, Daisy Harper.  4. What do they name the dog?

 

 

Hope you all enjoyed this BNG!  Sorry it's a little short :)



Name of the Week!

This week's name of week is...

CHRYSANTHEMUM

Gender: Girl

Meaning: the flower.  Part of the Daisy family.  Comes from the Greek words khrusos and anthemon, "gold flower." Symbolizes loyalty and friendship

Origin: English

Rank: Not in the top 1000

Other names that go with the name:  Ella, Valentina, Theadora, Carlisle, Mordecai, and Bennett

My opinion: Super GP name of mine! I love the looks of these flowers and, for some reason, the "-mum" ending is beautiful to me.  With the nicknames Chris/Chrissy, Sandy, and Mum, it has an old fashioned feel that seems refreshing

Your Opinion: leave it in the comments :)
