Enzian agony auntAs you are from Spain, don't give your baby boy an English name. There are a lot of beautiful Spanish names. Look here:

or here:

You could five your boy a name that can be pronounced in Spanish as well as in English or German, like Manuel?

Also look for the meaning of the name. Give your Baby a name with a meaning you really like!

A female reader, Nime United States +, writes (20 June 2011):

Nime agony auntI would try to pick a name that's clean and classic, with the traditional spelling. I know the trend these days is to mix up the spelling of your baby's name, but here's the rub: Even if you think your child's name is easy to pronounce just by the phonetic spelling, to most other people, it's not. Even simple variations on a name will most likely mean a lifetime of your child having to repeat the correct pronunciation of it over and over to everyone he meets.

Also, there exists a lot of research supporting the theory that a person's name can influence a person's self-perception, perception by others, performance in school, and general life success, so a name is an important decision. Names of unorthodox spelling, for example, tend to be poorly perceived by professionals and hiring managers, partly because of unfair stereotypes about who uses weird names (very young mothers, hippies, individuals from low socio-economic backgrounds), and partly because it might just be too unorthodox for their image. I know it seems fun and cute these days to name your child something a little different, give the spelling a twist, but think of the child. This is his real name that he has to use for the rest of his life, not a Skype/Yahoo/MSN screenname.

A female reader, angelDlite United Kingdom +, writes (19 June 2011):

angelDlite agony auntcongratulations! we picked my son's name by looking through a baby names book and making a short list of names that we liked. make it something that sounds good with the surname and just resist the urge to pick anything silly just for the sake of being unusual, this trend seems to have cropped up in recent years! the kids won't thank their parents for it when they are getting teased at school. if you cannot settle on one name give your son a middle name too, then if he prefers the middle name he can start using it as his calling name as he grows up
