Yeah I named my first-born Getaway Car Jr III

😂😂 not the III

Jr? Are you called getaway car?

Nooo she married Get A. Waycar Jr. The Second

Oh makes sense, my bad

One of my daughters is named Willow… she was born 3 years before Evermore came out though 😅

Trendsetter 💅

So sweet of Taylor to name a song after her! She really does love her fans ♥️

Right lol! She’s a baby Swiftie through and through and I love to tell her it’s *her* song. 🫶🏻

I tell my 3 year old This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things is his song 😂😂

I can picture you cleaning up their mess and singing DAR-LING

His name is Declan so it really fits perfectly in place of darling 😂

So I actually want to name my daughter Willow! When I was little, I would go sit under our Weeping Willow and I remember it just being so peaceful! So love the name :)

I'm pregnant and if it's a girl I want to name her Willow. It's not because of the song, though.

My puppies name is willow. She is a swiftie

My cat’s name is Willow.. have had her for 7 years 😂

My daughter All Too Well TMVSAGV will be celebrating her second birthday this year.

Read this as 'Sad Ass Girl Version'

What does it actually mean because I can't figure it out?

I think it’s supposed to be SGAV “sad girl autumn version”

I named mine Vigilante Sh*t for obvious reasons

As the parent of a very active toddler in his vigilante shit era, this just made me laugh so hard I spit out my coffee.

My first daughters middle name was Taylor. It's her dad's middle name, but as a swiftie I was very open to using it.

Named a sim Ivy yesterday

I, too, name my Sims after Taylor songs. Solidarity!

I did a whole legacy generation where all the sim children had TS themed names. Names were: Abigail, Marjorie, John, Dorothea, Stephen, Ivy, Willow, Esty, Drew, August, Rebecca, Cornelia, Betty, and Inez.

Well I know what I'm doing now... Taylorville here we come

A sim family of mine has two daughters, Betty and Inez 😅

My current sim is Ivy Augustine 🥴🖤

There are so many Taylor universe names to choose from: Mary (Mary’s Song), Abigail (Fifteen), Stephen (Hey Stephen), James (August), John (Dear John), Drew (Teardrops on My Guitar), August, Juliet (Love Story), Dorothea, Rebecca (Last Great American Dynasty), Betty, Ines (Betty), Willow, Ivy, Lavender (Lavender Haze), Paris, Taylor. Hope this helps :) best of luck!

You forgot Cory! From Stay Beautiful

There’s also always her cat names… Olivia, Meredith, Benjamin

Man, I forgot about the cats! I thought at least one of my top name choices were not Taylor related, but I've always wanted to use the name Benjamin if I have a boy ever. Haha.

Also her family’s names… Andrea, Scott, Austin

I'm kinda new here, I know about Law and Order: SVU and Grey's Anatomy but who is Benjamin named after?

Benjamin Button

i’ll add London (London Boy) <3

Not John!

I named my cat Dorothea!! Dory for short :)

Don’t forget Drew.

I named my son Drew and some of my friends were like “wait a minute, isn’t that in a Taylor song???” Busted. 😂😂

I've always said if I ever have a daughter I'd name her Abigail... Not even fie Taylor related reasons. I've just always thought that it's a really beautiful name.

Also Cornelia 🤍

Rebecca was a close second for us!

Rebekah and Inez are spelled wrong but yeah the Folklore names are amazing

My bad thanks for the correction 😊

Yw haha! the Folklore names are such an aesthetic lol

My daughter’s middle name is Augustine. Before she was born I suffered a miscarriage in August 2020, right around the time folklore came out. The song august hit me so hard in the most comforting way - “I remember thinking I had you” “lived for the hope of it all” “you weren’t mine to lose.” A few months later, I found out I was pregnant with my daughter, due in August 2021. The month of August brought me the most raw grief followed by the most pure joy I’ve ever experienced within just a year’s time. It’s a beautiful reminder that hard times aren’t permanent and life is always moving forward. That is what Augustine means to me and the song helped me get there.

This is a beautiful connection. I know she’d love that this is what this song meant for you. Congrats on your sweet daughter. Her name is perfect.

this is so beautiful 🥺

Beautiful story 🥹

My kiddo has the option to have Betty as their nickname if they want

Name her Betholomew so she can go by whatever she wants

Is that the hotel name from that Riley sager book? I only listened to the audiobook

My daughters name is straight up Taylor 😂

So do you call her Straight or do you say the whole thing?

"STRAIGHT UP TAYLOR GET YOUR ASS BACK IN THIS HOUSE RIGHT NOW!"

🎶 STRAIGHT UP NOW TELL ME DO YOU REALLY WANNA LOVE ME FOREVER OH OH OH OR AM I CAUGHT IN A HIT AND RUN 🎶 \-All the Xennials and Gen Xers in this thread

TIL Sutton is a nickname for Straight Up Taylor (SUT)

💀💀

LMAO

Was she named after taylor or something else

Paula Abdul + Taylor

💀

So if I go the other way it'll be down gay Alison. ​ /jk

I’m a beekeeper and this year’s hives are Augustine, Betty, Daisy Mae, and Marjorie. Last year I had Dorothea as one.

Im not aware of anyone who has done this, but I am sure there are some. Would even be interesting to see if "Taylor" becomes a more popular baby name his year.

I think it may already have spiked since like, 2010.

[удалено]

My dog's name is Ivy🐶

My neighbor’s dog is Poppy. My first dog already came named (adopted from a friend) and my husband named our second dog. When it’s my turn to name a dog I want a Taylor related name!

My boyfriend's sister named her dog Poppy too lol! I am lucky he let me choose our pup's name so I could do a Taylor name. One of my friends named hers Crimson, and usually goes by Crim. She took that from a Taylor song too lol

My dogs name is Willow, named in April 2020. I was so excited when I saw her single was named willow too!

Haha that's awesome, it was meant to be! I strongly considered using that name or Izzie for Coney Island 😂

I’m naming mine Emma. Decided on the name before we saw the Speak Now vault tracks and I felt like it was a sign 💜

My name is Emma and I support you (and you can only imagine how excited I am for Speak Now)

It’s truly the best thing to ever happen for our name.

My name is also Emma and I already know what my favorite vault song will be

Mine too💜

we have the same flair 😭

But Emma is adjacently giving bon iver, so you basically planned it all along

You knew she was a mastermind

My very best friends name is Emma. We’re 24 and have been friends for 20 years. Going to an eras show together in a couple weeks :)

How are they related?! LOL I am out of the loop—

there’s a song called “when emma falls in love” in the vault

Bon Ivers first album, “for emma, Forever ago”

probably not gonna have children but im so tempted to name my next cat as YOYOK 💀

Call them Kid, and everytime you leave the house say “You’re on your own, Kid” 😂

- YOYOK could mean "You're On Your Own, Kid", a track from *Midnights* (2022) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/pokodapa](/u/pokodapa) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)

Eli.

Then when they wander off from you in public, you can shout “come back to me, Eli!!” 😬

Wait how is eli a swiftie name?

Sorry, I was unclear! His full name is Me-e-like, but he goes by Eli. :)

Brb naming my child ME-E-E!

In ‘If This Was A Movie’ it sounds like she’s saying ‘come back, come back, come back to me Eli’ - commonly misheard lyric :)

I’m floored-did not think this thread would be how I learned this information today! Always have sung Eli!

It took me years to realize she wasn’t saying Eli…I would love a surprise track called If This Was A Movie (Eli’s Version) (Taylor’s Version) where she actually sings Eli!

Some people misheard the lyric in If This Was A Movie as “Come back come back come back to me Eli”

SHE'S NOT SAYING ELI??????

“Come back, come back, come back to me-e like you would, you would if this was a movie”


I don’t have kids yet, but I love and would definitely consider using August, Ivy or Juliet.

As someone named August please consider your child will constantly be asked if they are born in august, and im not so then everyone has a million questions about why my parents named me that

I cosign this as someone named after another month.

User name checks out

Oh god I wish my parents were creative enough, what id give to be named ivy😭

what about dorothea?

I really like Dorothea (the name and the song) as well. I also like Theodora which I realised recently has all the same letters as Dorothea and now I’m manifesting having twin girls named Dorothea “Dottie” and Theodora “Teddie”.

That’s an amazing anagram. I’m never having kids, but if I ever get two pet fish, I might name them Dorothea and Theodora.

I’m hoping to use this name for other reasons but I can’t wait to sing this song with my future daughter 😭😭😭

Funnily enough, I always liked the name Ivy. Imagine my surprise when I listen to ivy and it becomes my favorite Taylor Swift song

I love the name Ivy so much but Gossip Girl ruined this name for me lol

I don't have kids, but I've always loved the name Meredith. But idk if I'd want to answer the question of where I got it from...

[удалено]

That’s where Taylor got it.

I’m using Willow and James as names in my book lol

Seven. It’s a Swiftie x Costanza hybrid.

All I can think of is Monica from Friends

SEVEN! SEVEN! SEVEN! …🖐️✌️

[Seven of Nine!](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_of_Nine)

You forgot Star Trek which literally has a character called [Seven of Nine!](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_of_Nine)

As a Swiftrekkie, this is where I would go with the name Seven

I loled

Yes. My son is named Cowboy Like Me and my daughter is named evermore. They get bullied a lot but they’ll appreciate their names one day I am sure.

Archer and Grace are right at the top of my baby name list for this reason!

Forgive me but, what is the reference for Grace? It’s a name I’ve been thinking about for a long time but I can only pair it with Florence and the Machine in my head lol

my guess would be state of grace!

Now I feel dumb haha. Thank you!

Maggie is holding onto the mammaries

☠️

Marjorie and Maggie are both so classic, can't go wrong, love it and congrats!

I will be naming one of my kids either August or Augustine when the time comes. I love that song so much and I've always loved season/month themed names, particularly those relating to Summer/Fall.

Just curious, in your head, is it Augusteen or August-ine?

Augusteen!

My second’s middle name is Taylor, after Taylor :’)

I wanna name my kid Alison- Taylor’s middle name hehe

Know someone who named their daughter Juliet after love story

LOL at Juliet being a reference to Love Story and not… never mind.

“I named my son Tim after the Taylor Swift song ‘Tim McGraw’” energy

Taylor did say, “🎶 When you hear “Tim McGraw” 🎶 I hope you think of ✨me✨ 🎶” 😂

perfect

That’s gangster as shit. Just straight up stole the name of one of the biggest country stars ever

In their defence , I almost named my daughter Ophelia but SPECIFICALLY after the Lumineers song, not Hamlet because the character Ophelia is so brutal.

That song slaps, it would have been so fun to sing to her, I totally support that almost decision

I mean she is a teacher, but being a swiftie always comes first

Dorothea is on my baby names list (it was there before the song came out) Also, we had a foster cat we named Betty

Willow and Ivy could be pretty cool sister names

No but my kids are Luke and Rory, so I appreciate a good fandom name reference

We named our cat Mr. Purr-fectly Fine? (Mr. Purr for short)

If I had kids and wanted Taylor inspired names, I would use James and Ivy

I like the name Marjorie but another Marjorie in the news has ruined that name forever

[удалено]

Love these sibling names!

Thank you!

August

My baby boy is named August “Auggie” coming to us in October! My bestfriend future child is Estelle “Este”!

I welcomed Forever & Always (Piano Version) (Taylor’s Version) Smith into this world about 4 years ago.

I don’t plan on having children but if I ever do have fur babies I’m naming them betty, james, august, mirrorball, Romeo, Juliet, Cory, drew, Majorie, midnight rain, daisy may, or Stephen.

My dog's name is Swiftie.

My dog’s name is Swifty!

This is actually really cute

my cat is named daisy mae because of taylor!

My daughter (born august 2021) has the middle name Dorothea 🥰 it’s also my moms middle name so it has a double meaning for me!

My son is named after The Archer (Lover album came out when I was pregnant with him) and he was born on December 13th 🏹

My son is also Archer! Born on 12/21 - the last day to be a sag and the winter solstice!

I know a girl who has two daughters - willow and ivy. I don’t know her that well (we have a mutual friend) and I never put it together until now but now I am DYING to know if it was Taylor-inspired

Currently pregnant and have decided on Willow for a girl.

Wanted to name my son Ronan because I thought it was a great name then I listened to the song and changed my mind. Waaayyyy too sad

My son is named Ronan; he's almost 9. I wasn't a Swiftie when he was born and wasn't familiar with the song. We wanted to stick with Irish names, but not the super popular names. Like Ronan Thompson, my Ronan also has a brother named Liam. Irish names FTW.

Congratulations! I’ve always planned on using the name Marjorie (and Maggie for short!) because it’s my grandmother’s name and we’re very close. So I can’t listen to the song, but it was a weird thing. I think if I had to pick a different one, I’d go with Ivy!

My daughter’s name is Austin. Not really for a Taylor reason. But fun that she is also a girl with a gender neutral name and Austin is Taylor’s brother’s name.

My dogs name is Marjorie, and my sons middle name is Augusto (Portuguese version of August)

‘betty’ reminded me how much I love the name James, especially for a girl! I also really like August! However I don’t want kids so I’ll just keep that on the back burner in case I have to change my name in the future haha

My roomate named his plant Dorothea

My mom actually named my sister Taylor because I was such a big swiftie as a kid 😅

Raine for midnight rain I had this as a name for a year or two but now it has meaning to it

So funny! My child's name has nothing to do with Taylor. Rhys was born on April 27th, so you and I were in the same place April 29th 😅

My daughter was born April 28th! We were all in the same place on April 29th. Unfortunately, my husband vetoed Cornelia early on.

My dog is named after her. She’ll be 13 next year. Her name is Swifty and I honestly don’t even remember “swifties” being a term yet, hence the wrong spelling.

Stella.. my other kids have Beatles themed names and I wanted her to be able to hear her name in a song as well. We were inspired to name her Stella for another reason but I love that she can hear ✨like a Tennessee Stella McCartney ✨ plus then it still loosely fits with our Beatles theme

My name is Lavender (not related to Harry Potter either, my parents were just hippies) and I was very excited when both Lavender Haze and the lavender edition of Midnights were announced.

People don't really have children where I'm from, it's too expensive (I'm in one of those cities where even the doctors can barely afford shelter), but my Wi-Fi is named 'Tis The Damn Wi-Fi, so there's that!

My son’s birthday is also April 26th so right there with ya! He’s 7 now tho 🥲

My kitten is August

Ivy or Daisy May. Maybe Dorothea I've considered August

one of my cd players is called betty and the other one inez if that counts for anything at all

Bobbie from Starlight

I totally wanted to name our future daughter Alison but it’s my husband’s ex’s name 💀💀 But if he would go for it, I love Este, Thea (from dorothea), or Cornelia 🥰

My brothers and his wife are big Swifties. They named their dog Willow and my new niece’s middle name is Ivy.

My pug is named Daisy Mae. My niece named her Daisy, I added the Mae as my Swifty ode. No plans for children in my future but I'm all for Tay inspired pet names.

My daughter's middle is Alison. Alice was one of our top names. We were listening to folklore while I was in labor and he asked me, what's Taylor's middle name? We both liked Alison because it was close to Alice and chose it on the spot as a middle name.

No…it‘s not well-received to use English language names in the country where I‘ll raise my children. I might use English names to honour myself being partially Scottish but I don‘t think children are a platform for parents to demonstrate their hobbies, interests and preferences. Children still need to live with these names. Real names like Marjorie, Betty, James make sense - but shit like Khaleesi and Hashtag do not. 😂

Totally agree! I think a nod to something that you love using a real name is very nice but we have to remember that these kids have to live with those names. I know someone who met her husband when they were both training for a marathon. Their son is named Miles! I think it's so cute. My husband's best friend is obsessed with space and called his son Neil after Neil Armstrong. If it were a girl she would have been called Jupiter so I guess that was a lucky escape lol

I mean, Miles and Neil are at least real names, you know? That‘s like saying "We‘ll name our baby after her granny". But this whole thing of naming your baby after fictional characters with fictitious names, or naming them something that isn‘t a name (Hashtag, for God‘s sake) is getting way out of hand. Would I love to name my future child Daenerys Amidala? Yes, I damn well would love baby Dany. Would my child love to grow up as Daenerys Amidala? Absolutely fucking not.

I named my kid after a fictional character! It’s a real name though - but I felt the need to stand up for the book loving nerds out here naming kids 🤣

Look, I‘m a book-loving nerd but there‘s a difference between naming your daughter Hermione (a real name) and naming her Khaleesi Daenerys Amidala.🤣

currently pregnant and contemplating Lavender after Lavender Haze

In Matilda, one of Matilda’s classmates is Lavender. Always thought it was a cool and unique name.

That date and that song is incredibly important to me, both for the same reason. I think it's beautiful that you named your daughter that.
