I'm bored so I'm gonna guess some baby names (you guys can join me if you want)

So, I really hope that it's a girl cause A: Girls rock! B: There are enough boys in The Office, not enough girls C: It seems like every baby born on T.V. is a boy and I'm tired of it D: Jim and Pam would just be better with a boy, I don't know why, but that's how I feel. But, I'll do both genders (that's what she said)

Girl: Amy, Becca

Boy: (I think someone already mentioned) Ben, Matthew

I'll add more as I think of them (and yes, I do need a life)

I split this from The Pam Dichotomy, because I thought it was a fun idea.

Boy - Henry Scott, because I like the sound of Henry Halpert, and Scott after Michael Scott.

Girl - Larissa Michelle, after Jim's mom, and of course, Michael.

I think their gonna have to have Michael's name used in some way. laugh.gif

Cool thread Veebs.


I'm not good at naming babies, but I like names that go together and flow. Syllables are important. You should end up with an odd number of syllables. So since Halpert has two, then the first name should have one, three, or five syllables. I regret not following this rule with my own children. laugh.gif

Benjamin Halpert = five syllables, good
Jessica Halpert = five syllables, good

Mary Halpert = four syllables, no good
Barak Halpert = four syllables, no good

How about

Girl: Morgan Larissa Halpert
Ella Marie Halpert

Boy: David James Halpert
Kenneth James Halpert

This is fun. I really liked Henry & Benjamin. Those are great!

Oh....I got it. Pan Halpert if it's a girl. (I'm watching The Injury on TBS.)

I like the counting syllables thing. I always like to count letters. Normally I like even lettered names but since Jim and Pam both have odd, I thought it would be weird if the baby had even, so I used odd lettered names.

Love Ben and Jessica by the way.

I think it will be a boy. Everyone I know is having boys at the moment - where did all the girls go?!

Accidental Offspring Halpert, so they can refer to him as a happy little Accident.
Fancy_New_Becca
if they have a girl...

kimberly or possibly sarah

if it's a boy..

james or thomas
MichaelxHolly
I'm kinda either way on whether it's a boy or a girl. If it's a girl, I really like Anna. Kinda cute. biggrin.gif

But, on the other hand, I hope it's a boy. It means that Jim can bring out his fatherly skills and teach him baseball and stuff. Ben is my favorite for a boy. smile.gif

Anyone else wondering if it's twins?

I like the double H too, so just for fun...

It's a boy -

Marmaduke Halpert

'Marmaduke' is a great name! He would be called 'Duke' for short, but the full name of 'Marmaduke' sounds country-club-ivy-league-big-money sounding.
scrantonmom
Well, I might be dating myself here but I think in honor of "Big Tuna" I suggest the name Charlie-as in Charlie the Tuna from old StarKist Tuna commercials....

But seriously, I think that JAM would lean towards traditional names like Amanda and Joe.
cupidSparrow
eh... I think for a boy he should definatly be a Jr. because Jim is just that great. They can call him "Jimmy." and for a girl i think Nora Jennifer is very pretty.

I really can't wait to see what happens! *screeches inside myself* biggrin.gif

No, it sounds like that big doofus dog from the comics.


For an Ivy League name, you need something like Beaumont, so you can nickname him Beau or Biff or Monty. I don't think Jim and Pam are Ivy league people though. They're a little more Penn State Schuykill Campus.

Marmaduke could be Andy's baby's name. But for Jim and Pam...no. Just no.

Totally agree...

I don't have any kids yet, but here are some I like:

Girl names: Anna, Leah, Claire
Boy names: Max, Levi, Ethan

MelloJello_resorbed
well, duh!
the baby should obviously be named Jammie!

or
PB Ann Jay

or perhaps, in honor of all JAM fans:
Patience tongue.gif

I love the name Ethan! Also Ben just sounds like its something Pam and Jim would pick. It would be hilarious if they named the baby after Dwight laugh.gif

Now that I think about it, I don't think it's about names for Jim and Pam's kid. It's about NICKnames. I mean, seriously, how many times are people gonna call the kid by his or her real name? I know I won't. And Andy certainly won't. I can't recall one time that he called Jim by his real name instead of Big Tuna. So, now I'm wondering, what nickname do you think best suits this kid?

I'm going with Tiny Tuna.

I agree about nicknames. My parents rarely called us by our names, instead we were Punkin, Bumbo, Tootle or Punkin seed. My favorite aunt called us cricket.

how about Jamster? or Bit o' Jam?

Ha, I'm always Pheebster (my name is Phoebe). I like the Bit 'O Jam. I've also heard Jambino. It would be easier if we knew if it was a boy or girl. Then it could be Jelly Junior if it was a boy. How about Jell-O, after Dwight's office supplies being put in Jell-O. Plus isn't Jell-O like the kid version of Jelly?

well, here in Missouri "jelly" means a preserve made from fruit juice and pectin, it's basically jam without seeds or skin. Jell-O is flavored gelatin dessert, they also make puddings. I'm not sure about PA, but I'll bet it's the same.

but since both "jelly" (as in PB&J) and Jell-O are Office related, they both work. happy.gif

Girl: Alba Marie Halpert

Michael Gary Halpert rolling.gif I can so see Michael offering this as a name and totally meaning it.

I hope Pam hasnt spilled any names as we know Phyllis may want to steal them.

haha, nice one, future creed.

Boy: Michael Dwight Halpert

Girl: Angela Phyllis Halpert

Probably not, but I have a slight feeling that the middle name, at least, will be another main character's name. (I'm guessing Michael)

For girls, I like ~ Piper or Kerrigan
For boys ~ Gordon or Aiden.

What if it's not even Jim's baby?

They might end up naming him Roy Jr.

Ha, well put. The reason that I watch The Office instead of 90210 is because the relationships don't make me cringe. That and I feel bad because the people are too pretty for me.

I like the name Alexis for a girl and Ben for a boy.

Alexis Halpert <3

or they could name her bailey (or him ben) so that they could have PB&J!!!

Pam Ben & Jim

or you could use that idea for twins. I can just hear Jim say

"this is Patricia Bailey and Johnny, or as we call them, lil' PB&J"
crazyofficefan11
I still can't believe that they are expecting!

Girls: Molly, Zoe or Emily...
Boys: I love Ben or Henry...but someone said those already smile.gif

i have a feeling that they will have a girl...but i'm not getting my hopes up!

That's what I was thinking. It's gonna bother me if they keep up with the PB and J thing. That's why I like Ben cause it has 3 letters (Jim, Pam) and it starts with a B (peanut Butter).

Ha, I'm so obsessive.
Jenius129
I think for a girl:

Jenna Halpert (Jenna after Jenna Fischer who plays Pam and because it's pretty)
OR: Charlotte Marie Halpert.

Boy:
Dwight Halpert (JK laugh.gif )
Really name it:
Jeff Halpert
or
Patrick Scott Halpert (Gotta use Michael's name!)

If it's a boy, JD. James Dwight.

If it's a girl, Ariel of the sea. Afterall, it is half tuna.

so if it's a boy, they should name it Charlie!

for those of you too young to know why....Sorry Charlie

Here's my guess:
girl: Eleanor Larissa
boy: David James

So excited for the sixth season!:) smile.gif I like:

Girl: Clara/Clare, Emma, Amanda

OR:

Boy: Justin, Brian, Andrew(that could be an episode plot; Andy being all annoying cause he thinks the babys named after him!)

Nora Jennifer is a weird name! no offense!

if it is a boy they should name it michael or name him after jim!

Love4JimandRyan
I have a feeling it will be a boy, because Jan had a girl.
Also, I've always had a feeling they would name the baby Michael, or something to do with that.
But if they don't, I would say James.
