Kennedy is an amazing name. After nameing my first daughter Kennedy, choosing a name for our second daughter was disapointing. Nothing could measure up to such a powerful name as Kennedy. So we settled for Madison

We named our youngest son "Ethan" after a character that John Wayne played in the movie "The'searche's" - had NO idea what a popular name it has become. Dad's a huge John Wayne/Western fan - our oldest son's name is Shane - after Alan Ladd's movie "Shane". They're great solid names...and so far haven't met any boys his age with his name!

My name is actually Kennedy! I don't like it at all but know I hate it even more because I just found out that it meant "helmeted chief = deformed head". Super mad at my parents ❤️❤️

My daughter's name is Kennedy spelled Kenadi she was born in 2018 and is a confident strong willed nine year old,she plays tackle football with the boys and holds her own. She is also soft as a marshmallow and tears up at sad movies loves the outdoors and all the creatures that live there. She as all the other parents have said about their kids is one in three hundred million.

I love this name, we named our first daughter Kennedy, and I'm seeing a trend, she too is a natural leader, quite the girly girl, with a big personality, but is very petite as well. Lol I loved it because It'sounded classy, and Femine. Kinda like our generations " Katie" ,

I named my daughter Kennedy in 2009 because I was looking for a unisex name. When'thinking about her name I also thought about her future; I didn't want whoever'saw the name on a resume or paper to know if it was a male or female. I felt it was a strong name, and she totally exemplifies the'stren'th and leadership that it represents. We don't run across too many Kennedy's her age which is awesome. She is a unique individual!

My 8 year old carries this phenomenal name. I was inspired by two newcomers to her brothe's daycare class. It turns out one was a girl and the other a BOY. We switched up the'spelling to ensure her uniqueness. She's my KENEYDI!

I named my daughter Kennedy in 93, after doing extensive research on the meaning. It is a Ancent Gaelic name meaning "Helmeted Chief" It is a term used in the Christian Wars that refered to the leaders of a tribe who led their villages into battle. They were identified as such by the fierce warrior helmet worn, thus becomming a "Kennedy" or a "Hemeted Chief" and feared by all around as the bravest of leaders. So for the person who left their comment who said Ha Ha. Be careful of the next Kennedy you make fun of and "Avis le Fin". It is the motto of all ancient Kennedys. It is Gaelic and means "Consider the end". And by the way my daughter LOVES her name and I couldn't picture her with any other name. She is a Softball Catcher. A modern day "Helmeted Chief" HHMMMMM❤️

My daughter's name is Kennedy, She's eight years old. She's a natural born leader. So the name'suits her. She's beautiful inside and out. She is remembered pretty easily by people, I think its the name. I just love it. On occasion we've gotten a raised eyebrow when we say what her name is, but nothing too major. I was so happy I didnt have to come up with another girl name-what tops Kennedy❤️ We had a boy thank God. : )

We named our "little surprise", Landon on May 15,2015. Our older'son, Logan, told us he had been praying for a baby brother (he didn't let us in on this until I found out I was pregnant). We're so glad we have him and I think Logan and Landon sound great together. Landon is a strong name and It'suits him perfectly! It was also the only name my husband would agree on. My father-in-law is the only person that doesn't care for that name, so he calls him Jake...

My name is Kennedy. Most people think It's spelled "Kenady" since there is a girl that has the name'similar to mine. People doesn't really call me by my name'since I'm a twin so they'd go by my last name. I'm grateful to have Kennedy as my name because It'sounds elegant (even'though I'm quite the opposite, but I'm trying to improve). Be thankful to be called Kennedy because our name is one of a kind!

Our daughter's name is Kennedy and despite her very petite size at 4 she has a huge exuberant personality. The name carries alot of expectation with it. We have found that it is growing in popularity but that it is unique and lends to broad acceptance and many people comment on the'suitability to our tot.
