What's in a name?
I have yet to decide a name for my little girl who's due in Sept. Like kakak's, we will have to think of a unique name befitting our little princess. I was really careful with the names choosing because I dun like idea of
copying or even
borrowing other kids' name to mine. Where is the originality in that? Besides, my kids are unique in their ways. For that, they deserved a unique name. Unfortunately, one name I feel quite unique, Natasha Qistina won't be on baby no. 3 cos hubby didn't like Natasha as he feels the name's too strong for the girl. We'll see la. We still have 3 months more to go. We'd probably won't announce the name soo soon anyway, unless of course we have to go through the risk of having the name taken away for somebody else's baby. Then this time I really have to go through the trademark thingy. Hmmm ...
I can still recall the time we thought of kakak's name. That was 5 yrs back. Kepala ni perah punya perah nak think of that "perfect" name for our little girl. Actually from the midst of the pregnancy, I have already decided on
"Nadira" which meant
precious. I dunno why but I just love the name "Nadira" and I thought the name fits her so much, especially so after the ultrasound scan revealed I was having a girl. Initially, I hesitated to name my firstborn Nadira cos my cousin who's name is Nadzirah sounds the same and having the same name pronounced could jolly well cause confusion. But then again, her fullname is Siti Nur Nadzirah and she lives in KL anyway so to me, ok takpe jauh, no confusion though the calling name might end up the same. Hubby
pulak loves the name "Qaisara" because his little cousin who's name is Siti Qaisara, is such a sweet little thing and he insists on having Qaisara instead of Nadira. I was against the name cos firstly, I didn't know its meaning and secondly I have my mind stuck on "Nadira" already. Then hubby suggested the best idea of all ideas in the world. He suggested combining the two names together to become "Nadira Qaisara". It just struck both of us how the two names when combined became an extremely beautifully unique name in its own sense. I love the name! Where have you heard that name in this world? Never! Unique, I was sure nobody would think of such a beautiful name. I was sooo proud hubby could come up with this idea of such a beautiful name for my beautiful baby that we so decided that this was the name and
my Nadira Qaisara would be the ONE AND ONLY NADIRA QAISARA in this world. I was ever so grateful to the Almighty for enlightening us and bestowing this beautiful name to our precious little girl.
For that, dearest sis, I'm really sorry and no offence yeah. Frankly, I wasn't really too happy when your cousin took up the name cos I didn't like the idea of having another baby with the same exact name as my little girl. I have every sense to believe that
EVERY MOTHER, after spending so much time wrecking her brains for that so-called perfect name would
NEVER tolerate another child having the same name as hers. That's why I was secretly hoping ur cousin would at least add some other name to the original. Hubby had said," No other Nadira Qaisara is the same as ours cos ours is the original Nadira Qaisara Magad." OKlah .. at least that's comforting me a little. But then again what's in a name? My Nadira Qaisara will always be my precious little girl. The girl so special in her own sense. Even if there's a so-called "version 2.0" now.
