We have Brynleigh Jennifer Paige for a girl and nothing for a boy. We talked briefly about it this weekend but DH gave up on me and said he isn't going to think about boy names until he heard it's a boy... Okie dokie then
Couldn't resist this thread since DH and I both have names picked out. Dh's first name is Benjamin, so for boy's names our #1 pick is Maxwell Benson, #2 pick is Dorian Bennett (if we have 2 boys). For a girl I'm really in love with Alexandra Juliette (my middle name is Julia), and she will go by Sasha (i'm from russia so I want to honor my heritage). I also love Scarlett for a girl and Maksim for a boy, so they're in the top 10.
Met DH - 9/2003

Married - 8/16/2014
NTNP - 7/2014-5/2015
TTC #1 - 5/2015 (CP October @ 4w2d)
*PCOS/Hypothyroid/Ectopic Kidney/High DHEA-S* HSG - All clear, ectopic kidney didn't affect uterus (yay!) CT Adrenal Scan - no tumors! SA - sperm count excellent, 2% Morphology March/April IUI scheduled - surprise BFP w/ help of Progesterone - 3/18/2016 Beta #1 @ 11dpo - 45.7 #2 @ 14dpo - 163 #3 @ 18dpo - 997 #4 @ 21dpo - 3799 EDD 12/1 based on O, 11/28 per Ob/Gyn (but he's wrong lol).
Update: I've been waffling on names if we end up having two boys and decided to change from Logan and Riley to Logan and...something else. The second boy (if it's B/B twins) is either going to end up being Tristan or Hunter.
Unless I change my mind again. I have such a hard time with boys' names. I feel like I like them and then I wonder if something else might be better. And I feel like I need to make up my mind now since DH is team green and I'm planning on finding out, so I want to pick a second boys' name we both like before we find out the sex(es), that way I don't blow the surprise by running names by him once I know what's going on.
B/G or G/G twins are definitely going to be Logan and Harper.
@bettertogether27 Thank you! I'm really hoping we have at least one girl because I love Harper so much. Even better, my husband and family love it, too. Seems to be a real crowd pleaser.
We had picked out a few names when I got pregnant the first time, but then I miscarried. Since then, we've narrowed it down to 3 names for girls (one that my hubby picked out himself "Abigail Noel" and the other two are compiled of our grandmothers' names and family middle names) and 2 boy names made up of combinations of our grandfathers' names.
We decided on Tyler James for a boy! I love it! I have been crushing really bad on Grady but SO says no, so if any of you want to snatch that one up, I'll extra love you.
ETA: Apparently we aren't as decided as I thought we were. Boy name is now Owen James.
We both like Claire for a girl, but haven't found one yet for a boy that we both like. Last time, we had the opposite problem - found a boy name ASAP that we both loved, but could never figure out a name for a girl.
Claire is our girl name too. It's perfect for a baby, child, or adult.
I really prefer traditional but not overused names. Soo for a girl I really like Jacqueline (Jacqui) or Margaret (Maggie). Our last name starts with a J, and I like the idea of JJ initials (we haven't thought of a middle name yet) as a kind of additional nickname. DH liked Jacqueline last time around but I haven't mentioned Margaret to him yet... making sure I really do like it before I bring it up!
For a boy, husband is hooked on Andrew Thomas (his name is Thomas, and we're planning to follow that tradition). I don't love Andrew, but he has been talking about that name since before we were married so I am giving it some to sink into my mind before we dismiss it. I also don't mind AJ too much so that's a possibility with that name .
H actually agreed on a girl name (for now). I think we're going with Mae. Not sure on the middle name. Mae Elizabeth, Mae Elise ... something like that.
H's grandmother died last year and she was the rock of the family. A truly amazing woman. Her name was Twyla Mae and I think we'd love to honor her by using her middle name (if we have a girl).
Evelyn (3.24.10), Graham (5.30.13) & Miles (8.28.16)
@homebirdMy greatgrandmother's middle name was Mae.. we are also looking to use it, probably as a middle name, if this little one is a girl. My son's middle name is Martin, which was my husband's grandfather's middle name - so we like using middles!
For a boy we have Gavin James and a girl will be Holland Joy...I already have Logan, Cadence, MaKenna and Kiera so praying for team blue this last time around
I knew exactly what I wanted the first time around but I got nothing for baby #2. DD and DH want Julia/Juliette for a girl. I'm not sold on anything. My mom's name and my mother-in-law's name are both Nancy. It would be nice to incorporate that somehow. Really struggling.
Just for fun, I'll throw this in here, since I know some of us are here to secretly side eye names. I have a nephew whose name is Coal. Not Cole. Coal.

@0SeaMonkey0 Carson is my BIL and Carter is my nephew they
are great names
@izzetoot my middle name is also Elaine so I vote for that
one
We have had names picked out for a while even before we started trying. Annabelle for a girl and Mason for a boy. We don't have middle names picked out yet though.
The name game is kind of rough. It's a toss up what name im going to use for a last name right now. My SO is okay with either one and i think i will just pick which sounds best to me.
Girl names: Ellie or Emmy; Paige for the middle name (that may change) Boy Names: Aspen; James for the middle name. i absolutely LOVE the name Aspen. My SO has two boys already so he said im in charge of the boy name, which is fine with me.
Thanks @bettertogether27 ! My SO's middle name is James and his first name starts with an A also so it just really sounded right to me!! I saw that name and just fell in love with it.
DH and I are so torn on names. We already have Dimitri and Damien so this time around we are hoping for a girl. We liked Delilah but are now trying to stray away from names starting with 'D' since we have two already. We cannot agree on a boys name at the moment but for a girl we are choosing between Renly (Ren) and Reagan. Naming is hard!
I apologize if this comes off as rude, but if I were you I would edit your post to remove your last name, especially when your first name is (presumably) in your username. Leave it if you want, of course. Just trying to look out. There are serious weirdos out there. #internetstrangerdanger
