S/O Dream Names

macska3

I've had my fair share of pregnancy/name dreams (once I dreamed I had Ronald Reagan's baby...). What are some dream names you've encountered? Are they your style/would you use them? Were they really weird names?

My dream names:

Ashlee/Ashley Elisabeth (I couldn't decide which spelling I liked better in the dream--but Ashley would be my IRL choice.) Ashley is ok, Elisabeth is a family name that I'd MN.

Milah (said like Myla) Eh. I like Myla.

Susannah turned Jude (I had a baby girl then days later I found out it was a boy...what?! PS--that was Ronald Reagan's baby!) Susannah is NMS anymore but I am madly in love with Jude.

ETA answers to my own questions.

I the other thread I mentioned I named a baby boy Warner. 

I also had a dream a few months after DD was born that I went to the dr for a checkup and they told me there was still another baby in there!  I wound up delivering another baby -- a boy and I named him Cary.  I have no idea where that came from.

I can't remember any dreams about my children's names (oh, wait. Before I knew I was pregnant with DD2 I dreamt I had a son named Dominic). Yesterday morning I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about the name Atticus Larson. I thought it was brilliant and told DH first thing in the morning, expecting some kind of transcential moment where it would be THE BOY NAME. (It wasn't. He was like, "yeah, maybe" and moved on wih life).

When I was pregnant before we knew the baby's sex, I had a dream we had a little girl named Lauren.  I like that name and it was on my list but nowhere near the top.  Turns out we had a DS so I have no idea if that dream name would have moved up the list because it "came to me" in a dream. I doubt it, but I have wondered about it!

I've had a daughter named Samantha and a son named Riley in my dreams. I like both names a lot, but there are others I (and DH) like more for our kids.

I had a vivid dream I named an auburn hairs, 6 year old boy, Jude. Since my son didn't look like that at all we went with Abram. My husband had a dream once we had a blonde baby boy named Taylor Luke. I love Luke, but not so much Taylor.

In one baby dream I had, I was in a food hall at my alumnus' campus. I received my baby over the counter just as if you'd receive a burger, and the name that came with her was Bree. I asked, "Like the cheese?"  They told me me it had double Es.

In another dream, I gave birth, and then realized a day or two had passed and I knew nothing about her. People were asking what her weight was, what her name was, if she had hair, and I was in a panic because I didn't know anything about her. I hadn't even seen her. It was weird and scary.

I dreamt that when I delivered the twins we found out it was really triplets. There was another boy that was twice as big as the others. My husband named him Vincent.

I had a crazy dream where I had twins but I didn't know who the dad was so I took them to the Maury show. One belonged to my ex and one to my current boyfriend. They were both girls and were named Aylie and Addie which I wasn't sure if that was short for Adeline or Adelaide...it was crazy.

I had a dream my son was 17, had brown hair, and his name was Liam. Oddly enough I've grown partial to it ever since I had that dream.. But I'd never cared for it beforehand.

The name we chose was Lucian.

I had a dream we had a daughter and i named her Pergo. ...we were redoing our floors at the time.
