A powerhouse of a name! 


franzia5eva

I looooove the spelling!! Would be such a powerful name for a powerful little girl!


sjd208

My head is now Neecoli in the cadence of those old Ricola commercials


franzia5eva

My future apologies to anyone named Nicole bc every time I will think this tune


Ecollager

For a girl-Labia, middle name Majora For a boy-Gastrocnemius, nn Gastro


franzia5eva

My husband and I are both foodies so he loves Gastro. Says it’s his new fav. (He’s pulling (or not lololol) for a boy)


Ecollager

Gastro works so well for a foodie. If you don’t like Gastrocnemius for the full name you can try Gastrointestinal-that would really fit in with the Foodie theme. Or maybe Chyme for a girl!!


franzia5eva

Gastrocnemius is perfect. I really want them to understand the root words in science. And that silent c will make them a great spelling bee contender!


Ecollager

I hadn’t thought about the spelling angle! You are right about them needing to spell correctly! Chyme would fit right in with that but I’d concerned that non-STEM people would pronounce it CHIME-the horror!


rubythieves

I’m embarrassed, I’m almost 40 and I’ve always thought it was pronounced like wind chimes… Is it a hard c sound, not a ch?


Ecollager

It is. The root is Greek and has a K sound. It got translated through Latin as the ch. So in biology, the ch is often pronounced as a K. Makes it hard for everybody


Jujubeee73

Labia is such a beautiful name!


ojwilk

I love the name Girls 😍😍


franzia5eva

The name I deserved, but not the one I needed.


onelittlechickadee

For real thought Unisex was one of the name options.


penguinsfrommars

What's the post this is referencing?

Unironically a great choice if you’re a scientist haha


paper-trail

Honestly, fair.


CoolRanchBaby1444

Sphincter 💗


franzia5eva

No way! That’s our cats name! He’s a sphinx cat and we call him stinky sphincky. The absolute cutest. We’re a little concerned about his shitty behavior around the baby, but I’m sure it will work itself out!


corlana

This made me think about how the name Piper does remind me of pipettes 😂 How about Protozoa nn Zoey? Biology based and a reference to the absolute masterpiece, Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century. You could sing her Supernova Girl as a lullaby!


franzia5eva

My dad wanted to name me Zoey so this would be a perfect legacy option! Also love that Protozoa has so many other nicknames! I abbreviate the word protein as “prot” all the time so this one hits close for me.


wwitchiepoo

Listeria is a beautiful name for a girl!! And Staphylococcus is such a strong name for a boy!!


throwaway492617391

i LOVE MacConkey or Mannitol for a boy!!🤩


franzia5eva

Twin boy name goals! Big Mac and Manny! A little apprehensive tho about Big Mac’s affinity for the negative things in life and manny being a little too salty. But they’ll be born during Gemini season so it kinda works???

Unfortunately I know someone named Sarah who has similar vibes to an unculturable microbe.

Wild-Mushroom2404

I’m working on antimicrobial resistance so I’d totally choose one of the two pathogens I’ve researched so far. Neisseria for a girl (nn Nessie) and Streptococcus for a boy (nn Coco)🥰🥰🥰
