    196: Naming Bebe: How to Choose a Baby Name You’ll Love for Life
    Jan 26 2026
    Naming your baby is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make in the early years as a parent (and one of the most emotional). Some people have names picked out since childhood. Others scroll baby name lists for hours, feeling totally overwhelmed because they haven't found "the right one." And once you add in opinions from your partner, your in-laws, and your fourth cousin twice removed… it’s a lot. That’s why we’re so excited to share this week’s episode of Chick Chat, where we’re talking all things baby names with professional baby name consultant (yes, that’s a real thing!) Colleen Slagen, founder of Naming Bebe. Colleen is a former nurse practitioner turned viral baby-naming expert whose work has been featured on NPR, Today, The Washington Post, and ABC News. With a unique blend of research, psychology, and creativity, she helps parents find names they genuinely love — names that feel meaningful, stylish, and totally “them.” Whether you're naming your first baby or trying to match a sibling set without sounding cheesy, Colleen’s insights will help you feel way less stressed and way more confident. In this episode, we cover: What a baby name consultant actually does (and why it’s not just for celebrities) How to start the name search when nothing feels right What to do when you and your partner can't agree on a name Naming siblings without being too matchy-matchy How to pick a name that grows with your child Baby name "drama" — like when someone steals your favorite name Tips for handling family pressure or traditions The top baby name trends of the moment Common naming regrets (and how to avoid them!) If you’re in the middle of name-storming (or just love talking about baby names as much as we do), this episode is such a fun listen. Colleen’s advice is practical, thoughtful, and filled with ideas to help you pick a name that you’ll love and be proud of for years to come.
