You won’t believe how much some parents spend on baby naming consultants

Choosing a baby's name is a big deal.

It’s one thing that will stay with him or her for the rest of their life so the pressure is on to pick a good one. Some expecting mothers discuss baby names with their partners, while others reach out to their parents for recommendations. Surprisingly, some are now splashing their cash on professionals to choose the all important name for their newborn. Baby name consultant Sherri Suzanne owns her very own baby name business in New York. A massive amount of parents get in touch with her every year on her website, My Name For Life. Some parents turn to Sherri to discuss baby names that will make their little ones sound more intelligent or more classy. A baby name consultation with the business woman will set you back ‘several hundred dollars’ according to her website. The entrepreneur told the Daily Star Online:

“Parents come to me for hand-picked recommendations specifically for their child, so key to my service is the ‘discovery’ portion where I learn about my clients’ preferences and parameters.” “From that initial consultation, I create a formal reports of name suggestions.” “Some parents instantly know the ‘right’ name when they see it in my report; others continue to work with me using tools and techniques I developed over the years to decide among candidates.”

To some, this service may seem like an unnecessary luxury. But for those that cannot agree on a baby name, this is an option that may help them find middle ground.
