Baby Naming Contest!

Calling on all your creative faces! I have some reasonable, normal, human names picked out for this baby o'mine. BUT nothing is final until November, so I want some input. Specifically, I want some Utah names so this little alien knows it's heritage!

I am enlisting the aid of any and all readers of this blog to help me find the perfect Utah name. Here's what you have to do:

Step 1: Find an excellent Utah name.

Step 2: Utilize the comment section of this blog to share said Utah name with me (include some kind of pronunciation guide) Each participant is permitted 2 entries: 1 male + 1 female OR 1 unisex + 1 unisex OR 1 male + 1 unisex OR 1 female + 1 unisex. 

Step 3: Wait a week while I decide on my top two favorites. Both will be celebrated for their creativity and Utah-ness, neither will be the name of my first born.

Happy naming! May the worst name win!

    In the famous Utah tradition of comboing parent names i give you Leeca (leek-ah) and Burnillips (Burr-Nil-Ups).

    I'm also going with the good ol' Utah name combo approach, as well as the excessive use of the letter y.

    Girl: Clayriley (claire-ih-lee)
    Boy: Fylyp (Phillip)

    Sometimes Utah names are two names that HAVE to go together. So the girl name is: Viquetori Maschaele (victory mish-ay-la)
    and the boy name is: Brocklee Livitiqus (broccoli leviticus)

    Girl: I once knew a Dawntasia (don-tay-juh). No joke.

    Boy: My brother met a kid named Allstar at a basketball camp (pronounced as it's spelled). I thought it was awfully optimistic of his parents.
