plz help

Answer 1

No, sorry I don't like it that much. Think about whether you would have liked that name yourself, when you were growing up. Think about the future as well when she will be an adult.

Answer 2

I think you have to think about how your little girl will feel when she is older and what impact a name will have on her.

I can imagine she may get teased quite a bit as school with a name like that, and I'm sure she wouldn't appreciate it.

Also, how will she feel when she is 30 and her name is Smile.

No offense, but personally I woudln't do it, I do like your idea of having a name that is different, but I think you have to be very careful with what you choose.

Good luck.

Answer 3

It's going to sound silly with or without a middle name and your daughter is going to get picked on. And imagine the irony if she actually doesn't smile all that often, which she may not with a name like that.

Use Smile/Smiley as a nickname. Smile is a verb and/or a noun. Not a baby name.

Answer 4

smile isnt a name for a baby its an emotion!

Answer 5

Eurgh, Its horrible.

She'd well get teased.

How about:

Amelia.

Grace.

Alexandra.

Heidi.

Renee [Pronounced Ren-ay]

Chloe.

Sierra.

Sienna.

Kailey.

Maire [Pronounced Mar-ee]

Olivia-Rose.

Amber Taylor.

Miley.

Katy.

Alexis.

Christina.

Isabelle Rose.

Carmen Paige.

Brooke Renee.

Tianna Jay.

Answer 6

no i dont like it, its like apple, coco, sunday, or things like that. i hate those types of names i think it is ridiculous, but its ur baby i cant tell u what to name her

Answer 7

No don't call her smile call her Eden, Isabelle or Chloe or Lucy, something sensible for goodness sake do NOT call her smile

Answer 8

I agree with your boyfriend

Not a good idea to name her Smile

Maybe it would sound better as a middle name

Such as

Gracie Smile

Chloe Smile

xx

Answer 9

Sorry but I don't think its even a pretty name. Also think about when she gets older.

Answer 10

smile is quite the odd name. she's almost garunteed to be the only person with that name.

if hubby is not partial to the name what so ever, give her a more "normal" name and smile can be her nickname.

Answer 11

I don't like the name.  But you can have it as a nickname.

Answer 12

You are joking, sorry don't like it.

Answer 13

Please don't do this to your little girl. every time somebody says 'smile' she will think they are talking to her. Thats a horibble name, sorry!

Answer 14

No I hate that name, that is not a very good name. Sorry but thats my opinion. Put your self in your kids place at lets say the age of 12-13. Would you want that name?

Answer 15

I HAVE TO AGREE WITH YOUR BF,  BUT IF YOU WANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT YOU FOUND IT - MAYBE YOU COULD USE SMILE AS A MIDDLE NAME

Answer 16

It's a little strange.. and she would probably get made fun of alot.. you could name her "Sonrisa".. which is smile in Spanish..??

Answer 17

smile is not soo good in my op.

why not something pretty like blair, paige, annelea, serena, sienna.... etc

Answer 18

I get what you're doing, put it's a lot of pressure to put on a child- always expecting her to smile!

Why don't you call her Miles?  Its an anagram of smile!

Answer 19

I really hope you're kidding.

You could always call her Smile as a nickname, or Smiley, but for a REAL name, I'd highly suggest something else.

Answer 20

I really think that name would be kinda cruel. Naming a child after a verb is not something you should really do without complete consideration. Let's say your las name is Smith. People would be asking "Smith" to smile. With or without a middle name it is mean.

Answer 21

That is a joke. Think again, the poor kid!

Answer 22

Well to be honest, it does sound a bit weird. I don't really like it.. Sorry.

Answer 23

Hi,

To be honest I don't really like Smile. It sounds a bit cruel to call a baby that as she bound to get a lot of sick in school when she older.

Plus think about when she is an adult and goes for a job interview and the person interviewing goes 'We ready for you now Miss Smile ................' it just cruel!!!

Answer 24

Smile? You HAVE to be a teen mother. ( no offense but i have notice teens pick out names like that. ) You can name her something normal but call her smile as a cute nick name.

Answer 25

i really dont like it she'll end up getting laughed at her whole life and hating you for it

Answer 26

wow, that's such an awful name.

Answer 27

I knew this was going to be a good one! I'm going to be serious with you though, don't do it. When she's upset everyone will say "Smile, Smile!" which will annoy her to no end. Not to mention, you want a name you both agree on. I think you should write out a list of like 10 names that you like (hopefully some that are not words) and let your boyfriend pick from that list. It is his baby too (at least I'm assuming it is)!

Answer 28

i don't like it. she'd get a lot of sh*t from everyone growing up.

Answer 29

Umm i thinkk that 'smile' is a good nickname,

Smiley- Miley

you could name her miley

and call her smiley or smile.

i personally have never heard of someone named smile

also I like middle names. :]

Hope i helped, and don't forget to choose me as
