This is how it all started…
My love for names began as a child, when I meticulously named my imaginary students while dreaming up stories inspired by my favorite books. Over time, naming became an art to me, blending my fascination with words and storytelling. As an English teacher, I encountered countless names—from timeless classics to unique inventions—and saw firsthand the challenges of name popularity in a classroom. Now, as a stay-at-home mom and aspiring author, I’ve turned my passion for names into a creative outlet, curating lists to inspire character names and help others discover the perfect name.
Before becoming a mom, collecting names was a fun pastime filled with endless possibilities. Now, as a parent, it’s a meaningful pursuit rooted in choosing names for my children that reflect both literary and family connections. Each name feels like part of a larger story, weaving together meaning and memory. This blog is here to share my passion and help you find the perfect baby name. Whether you’re looking for something meaningful, literary, or completely unique, I’m here to help.
