Our LO is Griffin Haines B---. Finn for nickname and Haines was my grandfathers middle name and we like the sound of it. I would use it as a first name but DH doesn't want to go that far.
DS is Charles William, so we tend to lean towards older names. We both love Lucy, but DS is still totally bald at 17 months, and he's been known as Charlie Brown forever, so I'm not super crazy about the Charlie Brown and Lucy reference. Had to AW my little Charlie Brown below:
@bennikki
My Charlie was Charlie Brown for his first Halloween too. When he was a baby we called him Charlie Bucket (the main kid from Willy Wonka) as a joke and now he's almost 2yrs old and that's the nickname that stuck. Ha. We're going with Violet for this girl... which happens to be one of the little girls in the movie too. I'm hoping people don't put that together!
Our American bulldog is named Lucy. We had her before we had Charlie and I never thought about the Charlie/Lucy reference until after he was born.
We're still figuring it out. Team Green here, but in our top choices:
Caitlin or Erin or Skylar (middle name we want an R for my Grandma, but haven't chosen one yet - my niece is Riley, which we love, but don't want to repeat, so may be Rose or Renee).
Boys names have been tougher as my DH is very particular on this and doesn't want anything that he thinks sounds country club - whatever that is .... Right now Aiden, Duncan, Zach (not sure if we'll do Zachary), Jason, Sean and Logan are at the top of the list. (Middle name possibly Connor or Reed or something with an R).
We're not 100% certain, but most likely will name our son Ryan Jake. Ryan is after DH's cousin who was very close to him growing up and passed away suddenly at age 22. Also, my father's name is Reid, which starts with the same letter and has the same number of letters as Ryan, so I thought they were kind of similar. Jake is DH's middle name, as well as the middle name of his father (who actually goes by Jake) and grandfather (deceased).
There are some really good names on this board! We are totally on the fence with names. I think we have two top contenders right now and they are Eli or Emmett. No clue what we are going to do about a middle name! Such a big decisions!
I think we are deciding between Shane, Logan and Nathaniel. DH prefers to select a name once we meet LO. Middle name will be Edward or Walter, both family names
5 cycles of "TTC" - 3 intentional, 2 not so intentional. 5 BFPs. My rainbow arrived 10/15/14. TFMC 08.02.13 at 19+ weeks. Everyday I grieve for my little Olive.
We are still discussing names for our baby girl but so far we agree on Bryn(n) for a first name and still working on a middle name. Possibly Olivia or Victoria? We both like it with only 1 'n' but from all the name websites I have seen, it is a boy spelling.
We were so sure it was going to be a girl that we didn't have any ideas when we found out we were having a boy.
After scouring websites and each making lists and comparing we narrowed it down. Then tried out how they all sounded and whether DS2 reacted. Also, whether DS1 could say the name.
We are naming our little girl Norah. We aren't sure on a middle name but are leaning towards Ann or Rose.
I love all the names on here. There aren't any that make me cringe! Haha
Great post! We are team green and have a short list for girls, no ideas for boys (picky DH!). We chose Ethan last time, but it isn't a fav for either of us now. Girl front runners are Madeline, Nora/Cora, Lillian, and another I can't remember.. DD1 is Gwen. We will likely go with a few options like last time and decide after baby is born.
We r team green and have 2 names to each, to c which one suits them once babys here: Girl- Florence Elenor (nn flo) or Fleur Harper Boy- Reuben Jules (nn rue) or Heston Grayson Not completely set on the boy middle names. This is so fun seeing everyones choices!
We only have middle names decided. Girl's middle name will be Elizabeth and boy's will be Lee. Right now, I am in love with Nora Elizabeth for a girl, and I have no clue for a boy.
We are team green this time around. Last time we found she was a girl and she immediately had a name - Philippa Morgan (Pippa) we agree on Ruby, Lilah, Leo and Henrik middle names Michelle or Michael. Although I like Ruby Michael for a girl. We will wait and see what he/she looks like before naming. Totally different this time around. I love all the names you ladies have chosen so many classic names reoccurring!
Love all the names! We haven't committed yet but are leaning toward either Caroline Piper or Caroline Elizabeth. I might make a last minute change but now that I've started thinking about her as Caroline, I'm loving it. It's fun to share with you guys because we've decided not to tell anyone in our real lives so we don't get a bunch of negativity that could sway our decision.
We aren't telling anyone until after our little girl is born. I'm a bit worried that everyone is just going to think of the book/movie but we picked it awhile before all the movie hype started.
Baby girl is going to be named Hazel Grace.
Hopefully by October people won't make TFioS as the only connection to the name. We really love it.

DD1's name is Caroline and we get so many compliments on it!!! Such a pretty name (:
Late to the game but I'm in love with the name we picked for our baby girl. Her name is Elizabeth Grace.
We're opting for Ellie as a nickname in place of Lizzie. We wanted names with biblical roots and its actually hard to find a decent sounding girls name in the Bible haha but once we decided, we loved it
@MrsBabe614 did you hear aria from pretty little liars? I loved that name! But DH didn't. Boo.
But for our girl we chose Elysia Charlotte
If she were to be a he, it'd be Ezra aryes (we liked that before I heard it on pll though, unlike where I heard & liked aria lol)
I actually did, but it's my husband that suggested it and I know he wasn't watching PLL Lol, well...he might be secretly...

Evelyn Marie was in our top 3 for baby girl names, it is my maternal grandmothers name & my middle name is Marie also!
My middle name is also Marie and my great grandmothers name. I never met her, but my dad adored her and he loves babies so I thought it was fitting.
