Gemini: Naming a Baby With a Cancer Partner

Gemini, the keyword is compromise when naming a baby with a Cancer. You and your partner are coming to the baby name process with very different ideas and values. You want a cool name and don't care much for tradition, while Cancer prizes warmth and personal significance above most else.

If it were up to you, Gemini, you and your partner would keep the door open to all the name possibilities until your baby arrives. Unfortunately, that’s going to cause undue stress in your Cancer partner. As with everything else, you’ll have to meet in the middle. Even if you’re having fun researching all the names, as your baby’s arrival draws nearer, buckle down and collaborate with your partner to settle on The One.

You’re going to need to come up with creative solutions to keep both parents happy. Luckily, you are up to the task! With your knack for problem-solving, you can identify names that meet both sets of criteria. Perhaps a Gemini-style full name with Cancer-style nickname, like Celestine called Cece, or a friendly and familiar first name with an extravagant middle.
