Start with real usage
A name will be spoken, written, searched, and used in many settings. Read it aloud and consider how it feels in everyday introductions.
Balance sound, form, and meaning
A meaningful character can still be difficult to pronounce or write. Review the three dimensions together instead of optimizing only one.
Keep the family involved
Names affect the whole family. Collect candidates, check exclusions and dialect pronunciation, then make the final decision together.
