Laura Bennett told Bravo exec Andy Cohen that she was taking name suggestions for her new baby. (According to Laura, a previous son was named by committee.) So, we're taking name ideas here. What do you think Laura should name number six? Tell us, in comments, and we'll pass along your suggestions to Laura!

UPDATE: We're still taking suggestions! Add yours here.

(FYI: The cute baby pictured here is not one of hers....)

My suggestion: Victor!

It's formal and classy just like Laura's designs. And I am hoping that Laura will be victorious in next week's finale and her ongoing career.

I think you should name your son "Gunner Timothy" after Tim Gun (spelled backwards). Considering he was such a fan of yours, Laura, it's the least you could do!!!!

Hi Laura,
Thanks for representing us over-40's with so much panache. My suggestions run from the obvious to the slightly esoteric.
All the best,

Tim or Gunner.......as this baby has been a big part of her memories on Project Runway....no matter what the outcome.....she will treasure these memories each time she says her newest child's name.

Rick Bach wrote:

Hello all: Laura, your approach is very appreciated, all the way around. Without knowing the names of your other children, I suggest something that is sophisticated is it's own right. Much like how you live your life. How about "Burke"? I love using usual last names for first names or making one up entirely. My daughter's name is Joyanna. Thanks for this opportunity.
good luck, Rick Bach

Laura,
You are an incredible designer. You should name your baby. "Eli" after Eli Manning the quarterback for the NY Gaints! Good Luck on #6!

A name for Laura's baby? Hhhhmmmmmm? Kinda of cool to do it via the internet so I am SURE there will be a ton of odd ones in there! I have always liked the name Dakota for a guy and actually have a friend Cody who's name is really Dakota! I like it, Dakota Jax Bennet.

B. Mitchell wrote:

Sayid Parker or Caridee Nouvelle. But I would love to see Laura name her baby boy Jeffrey - especially since she probably got him kicked off the show. I bet she put Keith's design books back in his room too...the conniving WITCH - she's got to get rid of the only 'compitition' left on the show for her. And her designs SUCK; they're too old for possible future consumers. I think she needs a serious reality check.

kristin wrote:

Hi Laura............u look so beautiful pregnant.....and I love your designs!!!!
You should name your son Alexander or Yonathan....you have such regal look so your son should have a regal name..........Be Blessed and keep up on that turtle poop LOL

I <3 Laura! wrote:

I really like names that could double as last names like Stanley, Robinson, Kendrick, etc. I also like the suggestions of Gunner...sophisticated, edgy, & sentimental!

Liz wrote:

How about Gunner - for TIm Gunn!

Stacy Brenton wrote:

Laura,
You should name your son, Gunner (after Tim Gunn) and maybe our attitude:-). Also, I love all your designs the best - you're fabulous!

Stacy

Tiffany wrote:

I think you should name the baby Thaddeus Christopher and call him Thad if it's a boy, or Madison Orchid if it's a girl.
Good luck in the future!

Bryant wrote:

I think Bryant is the perfect name. Bryant Park

BonnieD wrote:

A plain name is best for the very rich and glamorous. Timothy. Period. Keep away from the soap-opera-esque: Blade, Bryant, Palmer, etc.

lise wrote:

If you have been following the show; certainly you know that that the baby is a boy. I pesonally prefer Maxwell or Maximillian. Please. please forget Jeffrey..and those pesty, trendy names ie- Dakota, Gunner, Zimmer, Logan.

Good luck next week-love your fabulously glamourous goodies!

Laura's baby should be named Denim. Since she sd she doesn't own any jeans, that will be her ONE and only denim piece she owns!!! I think that would be a gas!!!

You should name the baby Weston Alann

Kay Ouellette wrote:

Hi Laura!! I know how you feel about trying to find names for boys. My husbands family has lots of males. My husband is the youngest of 5 sons in a family of 7 children. In fact I tell people my husband didn't know how to make girl babies since we have 3 sons of our own. The name...Since it's your 5th son how about Quinten Timothy Bennett. Good Luck with everything. I have loved everything you're shown on the show. Kay

Candace wrote:

Years ago I met a woman who's little boy was named Noble (last name Dean). I always thought that it was a name destined for greatness. A great designer deserves a child with a great name. However, we don't know your other children's names, so if they are names like Bill, Fred, Tom, Dick and Harry, never mind.

crystal wrote:

I think you should name your baby Jeffery Because he rocked on project runway

Deb wrote:

Timothy Gunnar or Gunnar Timothy; either would fit with your other childrens' names. As an added bonus, Tim Gunn would end up all verklempt again -- and really, who doesn't love seeing him so? :-)

Cindy wrote:

I'm reaffirming the previous suggestions of Gunner and Bryant. Both are perfect.

Rebecca wrote:

To elaborate on Raven Brown's suggestion:
Timothy Bryant Bennett or
Bryant Timothy Bennett (can do the whole "B. Timothy Bennett" thing)

Suggestions of my own include:
Jonathon K.V. Bennett (the middle initials may stand for whatever you'd like, though I like Victor as well) (a bit of a tribute to a great professor)

If you should be surprised with a girl, might I suggest
Magaret Ulrike Bennett?

Well, at the very least, I think you should use Ulrike!

Also, you may want to consider making whatever name you choose compatible with baby's sun sign. I like to think of this as emphasizing baby's innate abilities. Yes, I do have my quirks1

Why not use your baby boy as a good luck charm to win Project Runway? Name him Hallo (German for ‘hello’ or “you’re in”) as opposed to “auf wiedersehen” (German for ‘goodbye’ or “you’re out”).

Good Luck!

Jodi Beatty wrote:

How about Ian or Jareth!

"Ian" means "gift from God" and is common in the U.K., though not as common over here in the U.S. "Ethan" is getting pretty common over here, though.

"Jareth" means "strong of heart" and "athletic." It's a good strong name! It's a derivative of "Gareth" which is a good name - a little common over in the U.K. No one has heard of it over here in the U.S. But it's a good name.

A lot of folks like the name "Jared" too.

jennifer wrote:

How about Matthew?

Laura wrote:

Since your first win was inspired by Josephine Baker, I think you should name him Joseph Baker Bennett.

Laura,
I don't want to sound like a broken record, but you do need a classy name for your baby boy. Aidan Cooper is a beautiful name. . .Aidan Cooper Bennet? What do you think? It's regal, classy, and yet very modern and up to date at the same time.

Laura you look terrific with your big pregnant belly, your designs have been my favorite from the beginning. Now that you're a celebrity you can't name your 5th son anything that's normal or traditional. It would be cute to somehow connect the name with the "Project Runway" experience though...But NOT Jeffery. Good Luck with both events ;o)

Tim is a good choice. Gunnar gives you a "Euro" impression, but it's not bad. The other name choices have been OK. I expect they will decide on something that is NOT SERIOUSLY UGLY.

Iwould like to suggest Jake Aiden as a possible name for Laura's newest creation to throw on the pile!

I agree with Timothy, but more as a middle name.

I also wanted to say how fabulous you've looked all season. You've really been an inspiration to me as a mom of five to break out of my jeans and get more fashion conscious! Thanks!

You are great on the show. Love your wit sense of humor and style.
I was born in New Orleans also (Metarie to be exact) I always wanted to aomeone in my family to name a boy after our great great grandfather Drauzin (I would call him Drew) but alas they did not and I am not going to have kids so what they hay It's French different and a hell of a lot better than jeffery or vincent (don't curse the poor child before he is born)

Laura, you should name you child Dirk Alexander Bennett. Besides the fact that it's my name, it has a nice ring to it. :) Oh, and then he can be DAB for short. Yay! How fun!?!

There you go, Laura. Hope you use it!

Best of luck! You're a favorite in our house!!!

Donna Bridger wrote:

Laura, I'm on pins and needles to see if the fashion industry shares my belief that you are without a doubt the shining star designer for this season (and many to come!)

I think your new son would be blessed to carry a name that would honor your mentor, Tim Gunn....Gunnar. A masculine, timeless, spirited name! Tim is such a genuine caring, supportive, honest person. Your son would do well to be named for a man such as Tim.

All the best tomorrow!!!

I love all of the designers on project runway, but i do not think that laura should name her baby after anything related with project . although, it was a great part of her life, she is beginning a new chapter in her life with a new baby, so why not name him something new and original??? I personally like the name Barry, but Trey is also a nice name( I know it sounds like a platter, but I would definately name my kid Trey(even though that is about 8 years away)). Good luck in your selection, and I hope you pick a good one!!

P.S. just because your famous now doesn't mean that you can name your kid something that will haunt them for the rest of their lives, like "APPLE". (imagine how much therapy they had to go through to get that kid to actually eat an apple??? :) )

trixie b wrote:

Two names that have not been suggested here are:
1. Anton. To go with Cleo. If they want something more Anglo-Nordic they could go with Antin.
2. Quinn. It fits as the fifth boy of course. I also thought that the idea of a cocktail party coming up with the name Truman was rather Algonquin Club-ish.

I like Gunnar better than Gunner as it fits better with your other boys' Scandinavian names.

Or start a new tradition with Truman and name him Roosevelt (TR of course).

Also, for some reason I like Axel for your new babe.

I think your comment about "throw this one on the pile" was hilarious. My favorite all season.

Love your work. You are a real inspiration to career moms like me.

Laura, congratulations on baby number six. You must be an incredibly strong woman. I dream of having six children as awkward as that sounds. I have always loved the names Ian, Christopher, Ethan, and honestly, I actually do agree with the many suggestions offered about naming baby number 6 Bryant. It's a great name. Best of luck and God bless.

Well, when I was pregnant with twins my husband liked the name Seven, and I didn't.

After reading several other posts, I've come to like the name Bryant, Bryant Parker Bennett.

Good luck deciding Laura!!!

Amanda wrote:

Kiley (F): meaning good-looking (as Laura's designs are)
Taylor (M or F): referring to the profession of a tailor or a textile craftsman of course
Fabrizio (M): it's a mouthful, but it means craftsman (so does the name Cain funnily enough)
Brea (F): this means beauty beyond sight
Kasa (F): the meaning is "robe of fur," which I think just sounds like something of Laura's taste
Robyn (M or F): it means bright fame, which Laura has definitely acquired as a result of Project Runway
Leopold (M): "daring ones" is the meaning, which may refer to many of the designs featured on Project Runway
Ashling (M or F): the meaning is "dream or vision," like that which Laura has for her clothes

I hope these names posed some helpful ideas!

Carlos or Dakota....i really like Dakota!!!

Cricket wrote:

I love romantic names, and I think with your style any of the following would be appropriate:

Name your baby 'York' or 'Thor' or 'Hamilton'. 'Tanner' is nice and 'Thompson' Bennett sounds high society.

Name your baby 'Roderick' and call him 'Ricky'
:-D

Or, go super romantic with 'Byron'...he'll be guaranteed to be a total babe when he grows up :-)

Name him 'Dalton' and he'll be on a Soap before he's a teenager :-D

'Pembroke' will get the kid into the literary field FOR SURE, and I hold the name 'Keaton' in my heart thanks to Alex P.

Congrats no matter what name you give your baby and I wish him lotsa of good health and a long and happy life :)

Laura,
We don't know your husband's last name. Is it Bennett? If so, then how about Bravo Bennett, and then you can sell the 6th kid to the network (just as good as "tossing him on the pile with the others") and have a reality show constructed around him. Just like "The Truman Show" with Jim Carey.
Seriously, you are a wonderfully talented and extremely funny, smart, beautiful woman. I'm sure you will choose the perfect name. Though I must say I like the sound of Timothy Michael Bennett.
The only other name I want to toss out there is one I made up with a friend in high school and have always loved and I think your baby would be the perfect recipient -- Bourgeois Stormtrooper. I think that would go nicely with Bennett :-)

Ooh, name the baby Liam! It's so... British-sounding! In a good way -- unlike Nigel, it doesn't make me think of a stuffy old man with a gigantic nose.
