First you have to pick something you like, like some sort of hobby to draw on for inspiration. Like say you like motorcycles, you might want to name your child Harley. But people would tease them if you just named your child the same name as a motorcycle, so you need to modify it into something cool like Hurley. Now you have a name that means something to you, and you know your child won’t be teased.
I’ve come to the conclusion kids are going to make fun, and though it’s worth being a bit careful over a teaseable name, more important to help your child carry their name with confidence and comfort them when they’re hurt.
