Hi I'm new here! Just got my BFP this past weekend. I have been thinking about names. Anyone have names picked out yet? I'm thinking Aubrey Grace or Evelyn Grace for a girl or Nicholas James for a boy.
Beautiful names! We just found out today that we are having a boy and his name is Alexander William! If he had been a girl, it would have been Anna Rebecca.
Has anyone told people (ie. in-laws) the names and they tell you, "I don't like those".
My SIL told my FIL they wanted to name my niece Emily Rose and he said "Oh, no what do want to name her that for?" That is her name, everyone got over it.
That is the reason that I did not tell anyone the names we picked out.

Has anyone told people (ie. in-laws) the names and they tell you, "I don't like those".
My husband and I had picked out names before I even got pregnant, and when we called his parents to tell them I was pregnant, we told them the names. Originally my husband wanted to name a boy James William and we agreed on Anna Rebecca for a girl. My in laws asked about names and when we told them they told us they were bland and common. Because James and Jamie (my husband and his sister) are SUCH creative and unique names. Drives me nuts! If the parents of the baby are happy with the name, that's all that should matter!
Has anyone told people (ie. in-laws) the names and they tell you, "I don't like those".
When we told my MIL we would name the baby Lux Leigh if it was a girl she was like "oh....well that's interesting." I could careless what people think about our name choices. As long as we like them I am set.
I also think it's weird when people tell you they don't like it or think its weird. You didn't ask for their opinion so keep it to yourself. Those people are the reason why so many people won't share names which is really sad to me.
Re: Baby Names
Evelyn Grace is beautiful. Nicholas James is a good name too.
There is also a Baby Name board if you are interested.
Thanks, I didnt know there was one.
My dad thinks everything we come up with sounds like a dog's name.
