Alicia (idony)!

I was *just* wondering that, .B! I think it looks so pretty.

What are ya'll talking about?

Alicia's daughter's name!

Thats what I was guessing but I didn't see anything about it when I looked.

Um...I dont really know how to explain it, im not that great with phonetics

um kinda like valerie only with a k in there...Does that make sence?

And no I didnt make it up, its from norse mythology (ive been a big mythology lover since I was like 7 or its always been my favorite story

if you go to www.Wikipedia.Org/wiki/val kyrie it has a pretty good explination there, just love the story

the short story is, they (the valkyries) were/are the choosers of the slain, the live in valhalla and serve odin, they pretty much go around gathering souls of brave heros who died in battle and take them to valhalla where they are trained to fight in the appocolyptic battle for the side of good

yeah, I pretty much know it by heart, told ya I love it lol

grr I just hate the fact that everyone has been getting on my case lately saying its a stupid name, that people are gonna call her velcro when she gets older or (get this) it sounds like a "black person" name (sorry if that offended anyone, im not racist I just know retarded people) grr just angers me off...Sorry dont ranting

~alicia~

That's how it thought it was pronounced! Don't let people get you down, .Alicia. It really is a beautiful name. I get crap from people about naming my son .Gabriel.. Saying it's too girly & people will call him "gay"briel.

.Let people be idiots.

Your daughter is going to be beautiful!

Thanks for sharing. Who cares what other people think, it's your child and your decision. I'm sure you put a lot of thought into it, and the meaning behind it and the reason you love it are awesome.

I don't know if you're planning on shortening it or giving her a nickname but I love kyrie.



Nick wanted us to give finn the middle name "loki" (i might be spelling it wrong), it's also from norse mythology and it's the god of mischief or something like that. I think it's a cute name and I love the meaning but it sounded too girly for a boy.

Thanks everyone

krissy, gabe is a wonderful name and hes a gorgous boy, I dont even need to see him, he cant be anything but amazing, I know that for sure

jess, I hate it when people have to be so stupid about the colour of someones skin, it doesnt make sence, no one is any different because of colour, it wouldnt bother me so much if they said african name, but it still just gets on my nerves, there is no need to be racist in this day and age

bridget, thanks, I have put a lot of thought into it, and I realized that it isnt a "normal" name which is why she has 2 middle names that also mean a lot (kristine from trevors mum and rose from my grandma) so if she doesnt like it she can chose one of those or a nickname (ive been tossing up between val and kyrie, my brothers ex's nickname is kirri and I cant stand her, ever since the second time I met her, shes been nothing but mean to me)...I like the name loki (and yeah that is spelled right) it actualy is a masculine name, but if you didnt think it was appropriate thats your desicion...Can I ask what his middle name is?

Wow that got long lol

~alicia~

I'm sure valkyrie will grow on people (and if it doesn't too bad). Honestly, I didn't like it at first but now I really do.

Finn's middle name is seamus and finn is short for finnegan.

Ok, so even after you said "it's like valerie with a k", I was still saying it wrong in my head. Then I asked nick, because he's into norse mythology as well, and he told me how to say it and now I love it. I *really* love it! I can't believe people are giving you crap over it.

So for anyone else who might be special like me, the 'y' is like the 'i' in kim. Val-ki-ree. Or as alicia simply put it, like valerie with a k.

I just pm'd her, but I really like the name!

Well just to let ya know I knew the whole time how to say it and what it means im just fly like that

I think so. My man said "she's not .Japaneese, so why name her something like that?" and I told him ".Kayoni is .Hawaiian, but she's not .Hawaiian at all. Sooo...."

i thinks you daughter's name is going to be unique and I can promise she'll get compliments!!!

When I was pregnant I used to get the nastiest faces when I would say her name. They would tell me, "she's gonna get picked on at school for that name!" and I would tell them "yea, right. Ladie, she'll be so beautiful, nobody's gonna even notice her name. It's a beautiful name and will only add to her beauty."

and look at her now. She's so beautiful, people could care less about her name! j/k

I .L.O.V.E the name .Valkyrie, .Alicia!! It's sooo different (in a good way!) and so incredibly pretty...I've always loved names starting with the letters .V, .Q, and .Z, because there aren't many of them, so they're all unique.

And .Sarah, .I .A.D.O.R.E .Oni's name. It lends itself to nicknames and it is just so cute to begin with....Gah, it's just awesome!

Lmao! My pet peeve is when people say ".Oni macaroni!" or ".Oni .Bologna!!"

or ".Oni minestroni!"

and my favorite is the macaroni commercials!!! They say "go all around the world .Oni! When you do the noodle .Oni!"
