Me and the wife each separately looked through lists of names on those sites, then we compared notes on ones we liked. This lead to our shortlist. Over the course of a few weeks we managed to narrow it down untill we had a name we both liked with the advantage of having said it out loud many times… so it was good.

Using the name before deciding on it is definitely a critical part of picking a good name.

I thought this was the way of doing it. It’s exactly what we’ve done too.
