Hi....last question for tonight, I promise

If you have the chance to name your child, which our agency explained really depends on the birth mother, etc....can anyone recommend any good resources/websites for baby names that may have Ethnic meaning for Guatemala, or Spanish names, etc? Can anyone share where they may have searched for names?

Thanks!!

Here are some of the sites I looked at:

I also ordered a book called Como Te Llamos Baby? I felt like, other than looking on the web, we needed something we could read over in bed at night. It was a huge struggle, but we finally were able to decide on a name we love. Best of luck to you!

There are tons of baby-name websites online, but here are some that specifically list Spanish baby names. The first website doesn't let you search by origin (I don't think), but the rest do. There is probably a lot of overlap among them too, if they aren't identical.
