Apricot? is what her first name may be?
Apricot, sweet yet sassy, My Niece's name is Summer and that's blond and hot. but Apricot is a nice name for the right type of baby, girl lady. or a women. she'll have that name all her life and I do like as long as your last name isn't Sundae.your Choice choose what makes you happy and how you think shell like growing up later in life. Home schooled or not. It's still a nice name. good luck! and congratulations.
Reply:Honestly this name is stupid and it's a nice joke to play on people. Anyone would name their daughter Apricot is looking for their child to want to kill themselves. Report It
Reply:I like it!
Reply:I don't really go for naming people after fruit/food products.

I have also heard of people named Taffy, and Tangerine, but I wouldn't name a child any of those names, either.



Best wishes.
Reply:just does not sound right for a girl going to get abbreviated to something stupid
Reply:You're going to have a little girl named Apricot Gaia in a homeschooled environment filled with other hippies.



*stands back with hand over mouth, pondering*



...



...well it is a free country, but, I think this is a retarded idea, as at some point or another your Little Apricot is going to be a big girl and have to come to grips with reality. Don't get me wrong: I'm a leftist, liberal, vegetarian, pro-matriarchy type fellow but this is like when my ex thought we should name our kid Fabulous Tristan.
Reply:Please don't call her that! Poor child!
Reply:do the child a favor and do not name her apricot.
Reply:The first thing that came to mind was "Apple Blythe Alison Martin" Gwyneth Paltrow's baby's name.



That was a dumb idea, but not learning from her mistake-- stupid!





Edit: I can't stop laughing @ "Apricot Preserves"!!! Actually, no other middle name would work like that one!
Reply:I think that if your going to raise her as a hippie, your are going to MESS YOUR KID UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reply:umm, it is definitely different, and i love creative names...you could also use, Neveah??[Nev-a-uh] its heaven spelled backwards......or Aurora...that's pretty rare...but she is yours...sooo yeahh.
Reply:I like Gaia alot better than Apricot. What about April instead????
Reply:I think its so cute, but your future daughter might not like it when she gets older. Imagine a forty year old woman called apricot.
Reply:Do you want the child to be teased?

Even if she's just home schooled, she'll get teased when she grows older.



Find another name!
Reply:No, they will call her ape for short.
Reply:Don't name her apricot. She may be home-schooled, but she'll soon be going out into the outside world; and with a name like that, she'll be ridiculed.

I think the name Apricot serves best as a nickname.
Reply:It's pretty interesting...here are some more hippie names to choose from that aren't so drastic...I don't want people to make fun of her even though she won't be going to a public school...
Reply:gaia? how do u pronounce it? like 'gay'??





maybe she'll be best friend's with gweneth paltrow's baby girl apple??!





NO!!
Reply:My friends daughter is called Cherri, and it really suits her. Personally I don't like the name Apricot, surely April would be better.
Reply:The name is cute but at the same time, you have to realize that SHE'LL BE STUCK WITH THAT NAME FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE lol!



But don't worry, your not alone in the "parents give their kids weird names" situation, I know plenty of people in that category. I know kids with names such as "survivor, paris, london, england, rome, Italy, Pear, etc..."



There's even this kid i know name "Dowe Needa Man"... Dowe as in the first name, Needa as in the middle, and Man as in the last. Seems as if the mother was in a divorce at that time and didn't need anymore men in her life lol.



oh and by the way, why HOME-SCHOOL her, give ther some freedom and let her experience a normal life.
Reply:that will be really embarrassing for her when she grows up. if you want a hippie name name her something like rain or sky or something like that.
Reply:I think it's the dumbest name I've ever heard kind of like apple.
Reply:I think I just puked a little





Poor girl =[
Reply:Forgive me, but I do think it will cause lifelong teasing -- I understand about home schooling (We home school, too) but your child WILL venture into the world...with a weird name if you choose this one.



Another answerer posted "What will her middle name be?" First thing that came to my mind was "Preserves".



I mean no offense. It's a darling nickname for family members...
Reply:I think thats as dumb as the name Apple, sorry
Reply:If you love it, you love it and what we say doesn't really matter. She will definitely take some teasing. I think it could be a very cute family nickname. I also think if you decide to go with apricot, you should give her a more traditional middle name in case she needs to sound professional in the future. Also, Gaia is pretty but the names really don't flow very well. If you like angelic names some suggestions for you: Angela, Angelique, Angelica, Angeline, Angelina, Evangeline, Serafina, Gabrielle. I don't suggest just plain Angel. I took a bunch of crap about it myself as a kid. I wound up with a lot of Satan-type nicknames because I could not live up to being a real angel (Who can?).
Reply:As long as you name your next one watermelon or pineapple
Reply:Okay, firstly, your child - your choice.



But at the same time I think you have to realize that even though your child may be homsechooled when they grow up they are sitll going to have to interact with the rest of society. It's going to be just as uncomfortable for your daughter applying for a bankloan and having to repeat, for the millionth time, that she really IS named after a piece of fruit. And while you may be 'hippy' your daughter may appreciate such an off-the-wall name.



And I figure if you're going to name them something like Apricot I think you should really consider the possibility that your child may absolutely HATE the name and give them a more conventional middle name. So they can go by that if she really do dislikes Apricot. With Gaia, if she is uncomfortable with Apricot, her middle name is no more usable.



Moreover Apricot Gaia doesn't sound that great together.



You could always save Apricot for a nickname, you know. Like pumpkin. Only Apricot.
Reply:Um... You just made me hungry for Apricot Jam on some toast...........





NO! Stupid name.
Reply:awesome...
