We were sitting there and one of us said the name. We both loved it. I looked it up later and we LOVE the description and meaning.

To pass the time in the car, I was looking up name lists on my phone in the car. It was the first name we both liked. We never picked a boy name (and it's a good thing we didn't need one). cvbee on "How did you come up with your LO's name?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-come-up-with-your-los-name#post-68512 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 20:11:10 +0000 cvbee 68512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We had been in the 'name discussion' mode. We were watching a TV program and as usual, when a character's name was stated we commented on the name and both of us said we thought it was a great name. It made it to the top of our list and when we found out we were having a boy, we decided that it was definitely our favourite and went with it. mrs. wagon on "How did you come up with your LO's name?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-come-up-with-your-los-name#post-68501 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:36:03 +0000 mrs. wagon 68501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @lemondrop: I LOOOOOVE Cameron-- both the name and the character!!! lemondrop on "How did you come up with your LO's name?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-come-up-with-your-los-name#post-68487 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:10:28 +0000 lemondrop 68487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Cameron Raymond- Cameron ended up being from Ferris Bueller, we liked a lot of C names (the first initial of my maiden name), but when we saw him on the 3D/4D ultrasound it was what fit him best. Raymond is my husband's great uncle, he never had kids and my husband was very special to him.

The name we picked is very old-lady (the last time it was popular was in the 1800s!) but has a beautiful meaning: loyal and compassionate. heffalump on "How did you come up with your LO's name?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-come-up-with-your-los-name#post-68189 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 14:34:41 +0000 heffalump 68189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We picked a family name. We wrote down a list of our deceased grandparents/great grandparents and chose from that. mrs. wagon on "How did you come up with your LO's name?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-come-up-with-your-los-name#post-68182 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 14:20:01 +0000 mrs. wagon 68182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always had the dream of having a little boy, naming him after his father and calling him Junior. But the chances of marrying a guy who had a nice name and wouldn't be weirded out by naming his son after himself were probably slim. When I suggested Robert Jr. to Rob Sr. and he loved the idea, I was thrilled! I absolutely love classic, old English names and Rob Sr. had mentioned in the past that he didn't like his name. But turns out he was just being modest. We had three other names lined up and didn't tell anyone we were considering Robert Jr. When he came out and looked like Rob Sr., we went with it! And it's a good thing-- he looks JUST like Rob Sr. :) mediagirl on "How did you come up with your LO's name?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-did-you-come-up-with-your-los-name#post-68178 Mon, 06 Feb 2012 14:08:38 +0000 mediagirl 68178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Is it a family name? Is it a name you have loved all your life? Did it just come to you one day?
