Name Counsel

MEET THE EXPERT:

Family naming consultant Kelly Utt-Grubb’s ground breaking work has been featured in major media including PINK Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, and iParenting.com, as well as on numerous radio shows across the country.

Kelly graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from the University of Tennessee.  After facing personal family naming dilemmas and realizing that there was no one to look to for guidance, Kelly resolved to use her personal and professional experience to become that resource for others. She currently assists those deciding on a meaningful last name via Name Counsel.

Kelly lives in North Carolina with her husband, Sam, and their 9 and 6-year-old sons. The family proudly shares the hyphenated last name Utt-Grubb, which is a combination of Kelly and Sam’s “maiden” names.
