I don't have any children, but I know what I plan on naming my firstborn son and daughter.
1. What is the name?
Jackson Cole Edward for a son and Phoebe Elizabeth Tara for a daughter.
2. Why did you choose the name?
The first names are my top names for each gender, and the middle names all honour family members:
Cole - great aunt Emily Lilian Coleman
Edward - poppy Ted
Eliza - great grandma Emily Eliza, who I was named after and looked exactly like as a baby
Beth - my dad's family, as my surname starts with Beth
Tara - my older sister, who is my best friend
3. Where did you first hear the name? Did you know right away you wanted to use it?
I first heard Jackson from the actor Jackson Rathbone, and Phoebe in the show Charmed when I was younger. I also knew Phoebe from FRIENDS, but Charmed was more influential in it. I liked both names straight away, but they worked there way through Lucas and Alyssa to get to the top.
4. How did you narrow it down to that name from all the others on your list?
I don't know, they just appeared at the top one day. I think because they are a bit more quirky than my previous top names, and I've always loved the spelling of Phoebe.
5. When did you decide on the name?
A few years ago. I've liked Phoebe for a while, but both of them became my top names at a similar time a few years ago. Phoebe first though.
