This will be our second kid, and at least for us figuring out a name that we both love is hard. There are literally tons of baby-name apps out there, most of them more fully-featured and polished than Nom de Bébé and you should probably use one of those.

#227One feature that would be nice to see: adding names. I always thought it would be fun to name a kid Pickle but it's not in your list :)
thanks for making this!

#228Earlier quoted context omitted.
My daughter was almost named “to be determined”. We went out for lunch one day and this woman at a table beside us was talking about her granddaughter. Her granddaughter sounded like a great kid and when she (finally) said her granddaughter’s name, my partner and I gave each other a look. That was the name… I wish your app had existed then - it would have been easier than the grand email list o’ names we shared with…
You can't leave us hanging after a story like that :)

Congratulations on both the baby and the launch of the app! There's actually a need-gap for 'Suggest unique pronounceable baby names' posted on my problem validation platform[1].

Edit: Since the main goal of a unique name seems to be email id, social media…
Unique names though… there’s a certain safety in numbers that a common name affords. A unique name is very easy to target in searches.

#230My dad said to me "don't give your boy one of those trendy new names, stick to something traditionally English" so I called him Æthelbert.
