Welcome to Sew Mama Sew’s Giveaway Day!
I’m on a “I’m preggo and don’t want to sew for anyone” hiatus, so I’m giving away my duplicate copy of Amy Butler’s Gum Drop Pillows pattern:
It’s also entirely possible the winner may get a couple of extra goodies stuffed into the envelope with the pattern!
Here’s how the giveaway will work…
The Mister and I are still debating baby names, and we also aren’t finding out the gender! So to enter the giveaway, go ahead and suggest a baby name (boy or girl) that meets our criteria:
- Must be unique in that it isn’t in the top 100 in recent years for the USA (you can check here)
- But not too funky – I’m an accountant, Steve is an engineer – we’re pretty straight-laced, so Apple isn’t going to work for us!
- Can’t start with S/M/ F (or have the Ph – no alliteration with Fox) – I don’t want to share initials
- Prefer to have at least 2 syllables
I’m really hoping someone will suggest a pure gem that will need to go on our list! Thanks for all of your help!
Winner will be drawn at random on May 25th. Be sure to leave me a valid email. Also, I moderate new comments so you don’t have to deal with word verifications, so don’t worry if yours doesn’t show up right away!
International entries welcome!
I love the older names. Unfortunately (for your criteria), some are coming back so they can’t be considered (like Emma, Nora). How about Neola? (I have a relative). I don’t see Jeff/rey on the list either.
I really like Colton or Campbell. And congratulations!!!
Rose has always been my favorite name for a girl…and Max fot a boy…
How about Kaia?
The boy name I had picked out but never got to use is Curtis. We named our daughter Laura.
Well, this is not too original…since it is what we named our daughter, but it is not common….
Alice.
i’m a teacher so I know how hard it is to find a good name! I love the names I chose for my two kids : CONOR (with one N it’s the Irish spelling and not in the top 100) and LIA (another Irish name spelled differently than usual!).
GOOD LUCK !!!
PS, I already made a comment but wanted to add that our girl name for our son was FIONA and I’ve always regretted not being able to use it …
How about some of my family names Virginia, Amanda, or Lorraine.
All of my picks I found on that list, darn! haha. What about Sierra? Oh, wait that starts with an S. Hmm… I also like Lexie. Good luck!
