|  |     How about combining two of the girls names to one: 
    	Sara Michelle Herndon
    
    For boys names:
    	Mitchell Eric Herndon
    	Mitchell Edward Herndon

    I grew up with a Sara and Margaret Herndon.
    Sara was Sara Lee - that sounds too much like
    the coffee cake doesn't it?
    
    I like Michelle Herndon.   Brittiany has too many 
    letters - it's a good first name for a short
    last name.  It is also becomming very popular.
    I know 3 people who have chosen it so far this
    year.
    
    Alexander Scott Herndon - Alex Herndon 
    
    Good luck -

    Well, so far we like:
    
    Girl - Sara Michelle (thanks .1) and are thinking about for a
    Boy -  Mitchell David
    
    But, do you think Mitchell is a good name...everytime I mention
    it to someone they sort of have this look like 'Ugh!' or 'Well,
    that's ok...'  Does anyone know any Mitchells? (Mitch)?  My
    sister thinks that kids will make fun of him....
    
    Any other ideas on boys names?
    
    thanks for the help....Kristen

| 706.5 | My brothers name is Mitchell | NYEM1::REIS | God is my refuge | Mon Jul 22 1991 11:48 | 9 | 
|  |     My older brothers name is Mitchell and no one ever made fun of him
    except to call him Mitch Miller sometimes but who knows him nowadays?
    We (the family), have always called him Mitchell except on the rare
    occasion. He, IMHO, is very attractive and is a detective for the
    Tampa police dept. in Fla. The only reason I can think of for people
    making faces or giving you weird looks is because it really isn't a
    common name. Of course I'm partial but I really like it.

| 706.6 | Great choices, Kristen! | TIPTOE::STOLICNY |  | Tue Jul 23 1991 10:40 | 16 |

    re: .4
    
    I think both of your choices (Sara Michelle Herndon and Mitchell
    David Herndon) are EXCELLENT!    As far as the "ugh" goes, there's
    really no accounting for taste in names (or anything else for that
    matter!) and you will never make everyone happy.     I think the
    important thing is that both you and your spouse like the name
    and work to build strong self-esteem in your child so that any
    teasing he/she may receive won't bother them - kids will find a
    way to tease about any name you select.   I think Mitch(ell) is an
    excellent choice for a boy and will serve him well from childhood
    to adulthood.
    
    JMHO,
    Carol

|  |     I have only known one Mitchell in my life, and he went by the 
    nickname, Mitch.  He is a warm, sincere, kind, gentle man.  He
    is also smart and a hard worker. (Can you tell I am very impressed
    by him!).  I think it's a great name.

    Thanks for all the support on Mitchell....I don't know why I
    worry so much about what other people think, but it is nice
    to know that there are several warm, sincere Mitchells out there.
    
    thanks agin, Kristen
    
    (Will keep you posted once we know what the ultrasound says....
    hopefully!)

| 706.9 | I like the name Mitchell | SELL3::FAHEL | Amalthea Celebras/Silver Unicorn | Wed Jul 24 1991 13:11 | 5 | 
|  |     When I was growing up, my best friend had an older brother named
    Mitchell.  He was called either Mitch or Mitchell, and I remember him
    as an OK guy.
