Name Counsel

Our names matter a great deal to us all, and no doubt you’ll want to take special care in choosing a last name for your child. After all, you’ll whisper that name in your newborn baby’s ear, write it on countless registration forms and lunch bags, and perhaps even sew it into his sweater. Your child will grow up feeling that her last name is as much a part of her identity as the familiar face she sees in the mirror every day of her life.

Before you make a decision, you’ll likely want to weigh personal values such as the importance of choosing a nice sounding name versus preserving family connection, and will want to learn about things like factors influencing children’s knowledge about gender and equality. We’ll help you navigate through these and other issues, address potential naming dilemmas and consider the possibilities.
