How to Find Your Perfect Baby Name

Picking your baby’s name.

You’d think it would be easy, right?

You fall in love with someone.

You create a tiny human together.

And now you get the sweet, magical job of naming them.

Except... suddenly you’re seven months pregnant, lying in bed at 2AM Googling “vintage baby names that aren’t weird” and wondering how on earth people just pick one.

I’ve been there.

It can be a process that’s deeply reflective, emotional, even healing.

It’s about identity, legacy, and the life your baby will live inside that name.

Let’s get into it.
