Would you name your child, Egypt?

I wouldn't name my child Egypt. But then, who the heck am I? I think the parents should choose the name for their own child and not let any one else persuade them differently.

I personally would not name a child Egypt but it's a different name and really no stranger than naming your child London or Paris if you think about it. It's kinda pretty, but just not for me (and my husband would definitely veto it).

Pluto Moon Crater is a bit of torture on your kid though, but your kids, your choice on the name.

Kids names should have meaning. So if Egypt means nothing to you ---i wouldn't use it. Now if you are an avid lover of Egypt and it ancient history...by all means do it! Names need to symbolize something.

I asked my dad why he named me Betty back in the day---he said "i knew if you looked anything like your mum when you grow up--you'd be a real Betty!!"--isn't that cute? Probably a lie, but cute!

No, but then if I have another girl I'm going to call her Amaryllis (as in ancient Greek lyric poetry), so who am I to talk?

Frank Zapper called one of his kids Moon Unit. I'm also particularly fond of David Bowie, who called his son Zowie.

I sure wouldn't. I was in the hospital last week because my cousin had her baby, and some stupid woman named her kid "Gonyrhea". She didn't know that "gonorrhea" is spelled 'g-o-n-o-r-r-h-e-a', but she thought the name sounded pretty.

It is better than pluto moon crater!!!!

Nope, I sure wouldn't. BUT, you can name your child whatever you choose and don't let anyone tell you different..

I think that is great. Beautiful name and it has alot of meaning for you.

It would definately be unique! Hopefully, when your child grows up, she will agree with you!
