I got my nails done Rainbow colors to celebrate my new daughter’s name!
I have always loved the name Rainbow. There was a girl in my school a few years younger than me named Rainbow and I was so envious of her name because it was so pretty and unusual. She was a perfectly normal, well-adjusted, sporty girl, by the way, so I’m not worried about my daughter being “traumatized” by having an unusual name.
There are a lot of smug haters out there who bag on my choice of a name, but I don’t care about what they think. I want my daughter to be proud of who she is and learn to speak up and stand up for herself at a young age. I spent most of my life being a people-pleaser who worried about what other people thought or thought was cool and I don’t want that for her.
I couldn’t be more blessed to have such a perfect daughter and have never been happier than I am now!











the name is very pretty .please post pics soon .
You know, I have an unusual name and gave my daughter one too. I think it’s good to have a unique and/or unusual name. As long as you like it and it means something special to you, what else matters?
Is her name “Rainbow”? I like it! It’s unique! And colorful
To each his own its your baby no one elses dont even justify with a response to anyone cant wait to see pics of the little cutie and love your nails love sparkles
Blessing to you and your growing family. I love the name and believe you are going to be a great mother. So happy for you!!!
I absolutely LOVE that name!
I think Rainbow a beautiful name….Unfortunately, I was worried about what people would think when we were naming our youngest daughter, and so I opted for a different name. The name I wanted to give her was a name I had loved for years, but it was unique and had a different spelling. I still love the name we gave her, but I wish I wouldn’t have fallen victim to “What would people say?” . It’s such a lame reason to base a decision on that only affects you and your family.
Don’t worry about the haters, Holly. You and Pasquale are her parents and, like I said, it’s a beautiful name!
I love the name. I knew a girl named Sunshine in college. It was so unique and she lived up to her name. I am sure your little bundle will do the same. Congrats!
I love you Holly! Congrats on your babygirl Rainbow! What a lucky girl she is to have such a cool mom : )
Sounds a like a perfect fit! I’m a mommy of 3 kids all under 5 and I named them what i felt in my heart. Cant wait to see the baby. Your on the start of being an Amazing Mommy!!
I think what you named her is your choice she is; after all your daughter.. I think Rainbow is a beautiful name and who cares what any one else thinks all that matters is she be healthy and loved which Im real sure she is very much so.
It’s perfect!
I’ve always loved rainbows (my wedding was even rainbow-themed) because of their symbolism of hope, but also because I believe in living in a world filled with color and silver linings! Your daughter is going to be so blessed
My Kids have different names! they so
I was the only Wendy in my school, my community, and my “entire world.” It was the “Rainbow” of its day. I am a very blessed and happy person 67 years later! LOVE the name; ignore the haters.
you’re Right Holly, don’t pay any attention to what the ” Haters” Say About Your Daughter’s Name. It’s A Beautiful Name, And She Will Be Proud of Having That name. and she will be proud of having a Mom like You.
Holly it’s your baby! Don’t give a shit what others say!
I love the name, Rainbow. What is her middle name going to be? You’re going to be an amazing mom, Holly.
My daughter’s name isn’t real common. Her name is Brenna. I have a sister named Brenda that was upset that her second child was another boy and mine was a girl. So I found the name in a baby book. This was 28 years ago. I had never heard the name then. Now i’ve heard it a few times. She’s always hated her name, but I think it’s pretty. Just like rainbow is a beautiful name. Nothing wrong with being uncommon…
Brenna is a lovely name. I’ve never heard it before. Great choice. Bren is cute as a nickname too. Tell your daughter she’s got a great name, at least I think so, so she should embrace it.
This is your baby ! Name her what you like and don’t worry about what anyone else thinks or has to say. Enjoy her and best wishes to you and your family.
HOLLY IM andrea from argentina im so happy for you love you so much !!
Love the name! I have to tell you, I wasnt due until March 26th but on March 5th I had my baby. I absolutely adore you and have been following your pregnancy. I cant tell you how excited I was to find out that our daughters share the same birthday! Mine was emergency but all are doing well. Cambria Bay says hello to little Rainbow Aurora! I wish you all the best to your little family!
My name is Regan and although not highly uncommon I grew up not knowing anyone with the same name. I faced many mispronunciations and a lot of questions as to where it came from. I however LOVED having a different name! I would not change it for the world! In fact, I am pregnant and having a girl we are naming her Brynn which is not extremely popular and I am hoping she finds the same value in having a different name and identity as I did growing up! I hope the same for your little one! Plus she could have tons of cute nicknames from Rainbow!
I love unusual names on people. I think they are so cool.My daughter has an unusual first name, she got her name from my mothers name.
My husband loved my mom’s first name and wanted to give it to our daughter.
The name is unique just like she will be and you will make sure she knows how special and important that is. I do have to say I really expected you to name her aurora
My daughter’s name is Valora and it means brave. She has certainly lived up to it in these first 7 years. AND she was born 2 days before Halloween (and the day after Matilda Ledger was born)! It’s okay to have a unique name, as long as it’s not completely out there. Just know that you will NEVER find her name on those personalized keychains! LOL Her middlename is a little more common, just a different spelling. I just KNEW there was going to be a Disney Princess name in there somewhere with you, and figured it would be Aurora (which is my daughter’s favorite Princess). I know the feeling of wanting your daughter to be more independent than yourself, I am a lot like you because I worry how others see me too. We’ll get through it together! Welcome to mommyhood!!
My bro- in- laws name is Rainbo n he’s a “meat-head” kinda guy. (o.O) My boys’ names are Aspen Sky and Eko Rain. I think unusual names teach you to not take crap from the get-go, which is a great life lesson.
Kuddo’s to you, for all of it!!
Congratulations! I’m so happy for you. It makes me smile to know that you have your little Rainbow finally in your arms! I know your going to make a wonderful mommy! I love her name and can’t wait to see pictures!!
I love the name and it’s uniqueness. Your daughter will be blessed to have you for a mother. Best wishes always!
To me it doesn’t matter what other people say about the name. I feel it is an awesome name because she has brought a “Rainbow” into you’re life, so enjoy her she is awesome just like her Mom.
Holly spent more time talking about the negative aspect and i suspect her daughter will be teased alot. I dont know. Unique names are nice but sometimes they get ridiculous.
That’s a beautiful name. i am hispanic. My daughters name are Evelyn, Emely and AnnaMae. Uncommon for a hispanic person to put their kids name different
I think it’s a beautiful name.
Good for you!!! That’s a unique perspective & I like that. I’m a Sarah, so there are plenty of us. It’s a good strong name but common. Good to be different!!!
I love the name. So sad other’s cant just be happy for a person!But at the same time who care’s what other’s think life is to short just enjoy this time with your little one nothing else matter’s.
Congrats Holly on ure lil angel,she’s definitely ure pot of gold at da end of a rainbow and I luv da name.Unique and different is way cooler then normal. JUST BE WHO U R AND I KNOW YOURE GONNA BE A AWESOME MUM xxoo
My 2 yr old is named Magnolia! So many people do not like it, but from he day we found out she was a girl I could not imagine calling her anything else! Rainbow is a great name! As long as she is raised to know she is unique, just like her name, she will be strong enough to ignore the ignorant remarks!
Congrats Holly on your lil angel i know she’ll definitely be your pot of gold at da end of da rainbow.Unique is way cooler then mormal anyway and i love her name. If you just be who u r then i know youre gonna be a awesome mum xxoo
Congrats on your lil angel Holly, she’s definitely your pot of gold at da end of a rainbow aye. I love her name. Unique is way cooler then normal. Be yourself and I know youre be a awesome mum xxoo
You know i’m all for unique my name is uniquely spelled but truthfully I remember going to places as a kid and whating nothing more than to be able to buy those stupid little keychains or cups with my name already on it and never getting to get one… I am just saying unique is not always best.
It is very unique and pretty. Just like she will always be.
I love it! Rain is a cute nick name too. It’s your baby and you should name her what you want to.
Holly congratulations on your daughter I’m glad that one of your dreams came true It’s one of my dreams too, to have a daughter and a son I hope that someday I will be as blessed as you. Both names are beautiful and different. Please post pictures of her ASAP.
It’s a beautiful name for a beautiful little girl!
It’s a beautiful name! Very cool!
Holly: Congrats to you and Pasquale on the arrival of your beautiful little Rainbow. What a beautiful name!Ignore the haters. Some people are just so mean! I could not be happier for you and Pasquale. Many blessings to your new little family.
Unacceptable Name for a child. But, you slept with an 80 year old so you’d have money. That was not love, I don’t care what you say.
You clearly have never had self esteem.
Félicitation !!! et un super beau prénom
pleins de bonne chose Holly bises
Rainbow is a gorgeous name
RAINBOW! …. Mahalo Holly!!! ….sorry….me and my color thing ^_^ //
I am so happy for the both of you!
It’s a very cute name. My son has a different name.. and if he was a girl it was suppose to be Aurora Rei!! We love different. Forget the haters!!!
