Just as exciting are Filipino nicknames. Jennifer is called ‘Jing-Jing’, Johnson is ‘Jeg-Jeg’, Crystalyn is ‘Neng-neng’. See the repeating pattern? Anyone with a Jr. will be called ‘Jhun-Jhun’ with the emphasis on the ‘H’. We also have very silly name like ‘Baby’ or ‘Boy’ or even ‘Lady’. I know a number of these people and even related to some. I hope they don’t read my post because I just called their name silly

Yes, my boyfriend was telling me this, and he is Filipino. I was asking about some native names from Philippines and he didn’t even know. Well, he could list western names, but it’s not the same. I was really hoping for some names that reflect his heritage as well as mine. I’m really determined to find more, because some names are just really beautiful.

Hello Maryjane:
I married a Philipino with mix of Spanish blood. We recently conceived. I am in search of some Philipino baby names. It’s how I came across to this web page. I have had such difficulty trying to find Philipino names. I found baby.lovetoknow.com pretty good site. Just thought I’d pass it on to you. Please if you would be so kind can you forward me any if you find more site. Thanks for your time. Happy Holidays.

My husband has a really unique name. He is one of two males in his family and I want to continue with Philippinio names for our children. Is there any books or lists on paper I can get? I don’t have internet access most of the time so something on paper would help. Thank you!
