Questions, answered.
If you can't find what you're looking for here, I'm always happy to help. Whether you're starting from scratch or have a shortlist you can't quite choose between, I'm here to provide the objective perspective you need to make a confident decision.
1. What does a consultant do?
I help you find, research, and choose a name. That might mean building a curated collection from scratch, evaluating the names you already love, or helping two parents with very different tastes find common ground. You get thorough research, an objective perspective, and a calmer decision.
2. Will you choose the name for us?
No. I'll give you well-researched recommendations and honest opinions, but the decision is always yours. The aim is for you to feel completely sure of your choice.
3. When should we get in touch?
Whenever you're ready. Some parents start planning before they're expecting, others come to me mid-pregnancy, and some arrive in the days after birth with a baby who doesn't feel like any name on the list. Most services take [X] working days, so let me know if your timeline is tight.
4. What if my partner and I can't agree?
You're in very good company. The consultation is designed to uncover what each of you is drawn to, and why, which often reveals shared ground neither of you had noticed.

Do you only help with baby names?
Baby names are the heart of the studio, but I'm also glad to help with middle names, sibling sets, names for children joining your family through adoption, and personal name changes.
Is my information kept confidential?
Absolutely. Your shortlist, family details, and final choice stay private. I never share or publish a client's names without their explicit permission.
Can I give a consultation as a gift?
Yes. Gift vouchers are available for every service and make a thoughtful baby shower present. [How vouchers are delivered and how long they remain valid.]
What if we don't love any of the recommendations?
Let me know what isn't working, and we'll work together to figure out the best way to adjust course.
