  • @ariz17 awe that poor kid. Not only is her birthday on Christmas but she's got to deal with such a silly name.
  • @ariz17 noooooooooooooooo. I vetoed all the obviously Christmasy ones - Noel, Christmas, Holly, etc. But something about Ebby just got me.... :smile:

  • @kkerner87 Bash was on my short list but DH shot that down way to quickly.  I can picture some big bad-a football player.  So I vote go for it and I can live vicariously through you. 
  • @kkerner87 Sebastian is one of my favorite boys names. Even though we are having a girl, I think it's important to consider what a future brother/sister name might be so I bring it up a lot with DH. Every time I mention Sebastian he says it reminds him too much of Cruel Intentions. I'm over here like "how is that a bad thing??". It reminds me of The Little Mermaid, which is also awesome.
  • Thanks for the input friends! I'm presenting Hattie June to my husband tonight. We started dating on June 1st 8 years ago so that's why June is meaningful for us. 

    @natleilynn my name started off as a joke and my parents actually named me it. I'm named after a large and well-known country that most of us live in.... #LetFreedomRing #StillBetterThanChristmas 
    Hattie June is adorable

    @laeberge3 - I think the name Noel is really sweet.  I understand you feeling a bit unsure about the pronunciation though... I've seen it spelled Knoll before as well? But if your not into the whole K thing then I definitely think Nolan is suuuuper cute and Nole/Noel could easily become the "everyday nickname" :) 
  • Okay ladies... give me your thoughts on our options for baby girl. Our last name starts with W and is a pretty generic two-syllable name that sounds good with most everything.

    Claire Noelle
    Claire Beverly (Beverly is my deceased grandmother's name)
    Clara Noelle
    Zoe Louise (Louise is my living grandmother's name)
    Zoe Grace (our niece's middle name is also Grace... does that matter?)

    We have a few other ideas, but these are the best ones at the moment.
  • @soprano19
    Clara Noelle sounds pretty but it makes me think of the nutcracker. If that doesn't bug you, it's cute!

    Zoe Louise would be a second pick :)

  • @canonmom413 lol, I totally didn't think about The Nutcracker. It doesn't bug me though.
  • @soprano19 Out of those I think I like Clara Noelle best, although I agree with @canonmom413 that it is reminiscent of the Nutcracker. Zoe Grace would be my second. 

    @dogperson11 That is hilarious! And most people won't know his middle name, so it won't matter :)
  • @dogperson11 my first choice for a boy name was Luke, but combined with our last name, it would be dangerously close to a certain Star Wars character... so I feel you, lol.

    I think I agree with @jessirh though.

    @kkerner87 I love the name Wyatt, it just a classic. But I'm from Texas and my DH and I love western movies! 
  • beezeeebeezeee member
    @soprano19 I love Clara Noelle! Both are names that we considered for this LO.

  • @soprano19 Such sweet choices! Definitely think Clara is a better first name than Claire, and I wouldn't worry about if the middle name is the same as your niece's, especially since Grace is such a beautiful and popular middle name. My middle name is the same as two of my cousins' and it's never been a thing :) Clara Noelle is adorable too!
  • I like Claire Beverly best. I prefer middle names with a meaning behind them, and it doesn't get much more meaningful than honoring a beloved family member who has passed. Also with a common first and last name, I prefer a less common middle name.
  • Just read an article today and my top pick girl name made the top 10 most popular names in the area.... dammit. And I thought I was being all original with Nova... 
  • @soprano19 Clara noelle is my favorite of those as well! It flows nicely :)

    @dogperson11 I'm tossed up on the Jack Daniel thing!! That is pretty funny though. 

    We have a few girls names picked out: 

    Sidney Elizabeth
    Gwen Elizabeth

    Sidney Reese (dh's fav!) 

    Reese Margaret P (both our grandmas are named Margaret but I'm not sure I like it. I like the name just not sure if I want to do family name.)
    Sidney Margaret 

    Reese...other middle name?? Lol. 

    why is naming a human so hard :lol:

  • Gwen Margaret? I feel like you have to use Margaret I mean you cover both sides with one name! That's pretty cool!

    Not sure why I forgot to write Gwen Margaret! But you're right, easily covering both sides of the family is pretty nice!

     What do you think about the name Paxton for a boy?  So far it's the only name I've found that hubby hasn't said no to.  And I'm pretty sure I've read all the names there ever were... at least it feels that way. 
    +1 to naming a human is hard! 
    DS is Payton Xander, people call him Paxton all the time haha. It's never bothered me because I think it's a cute name!

    @purplestarz I love the name Jameson. My hubby has a cousin with that name so we can't use it but I totally would if he didn't! 
    I agree with you that Jameson Liam doesn't flow. I love both of those names though. 
  • @purplestarz Jameson is a great name!! Don't let the reference deter you.

    Thanks for the input! @purplestarz I thought of the HAM initials too. I brought it up to BF and he said he didn't mind. I don't think I mind either. 

    I like Jameson Wesley too!

    Lucas
    Logan
    Landon
