- Comments and insights on the name Seattle
Our son has received nothing but compliments from friends, teachers, etc. However, 1st thought everyone asks if he was born or conceived in Seattle, no one asks that about kids named Madison, Dakota, Denver, or Georgia do they???
Poster above: Those "names" are not names (besides Georgia). They certainly will not aid his, or her, career to success quicker. It is a nice "title," in itself, though... pretty spelling, and such.
Letters form words we give those letters/words meanings and who are YOU to decided what is or is not a NAME. AND my son is NOT the only person named Seattle we've found several more on facebook and met a few. It's just not as well known as other place names.
- Personal experiences with the name Seattle
We named our son Seattle, our 1st born, he was born in 1989 & we had never heard anyone name a baby Seattle at the time, however, on facebook another child (girl) named Seattle-Skye found him. Our Seattle is now 20yr old.
We chose the name simply by perusuing a road atlas while on a road trip before his birth, we figure if Dallas, Austin, Madison, Cheyenne, London, etc were used then Seattle wasa cool name- Nicknames for Seattle
