I’ve always loved the name Evelyn and my husband has been referring to this baby as Evie. We don’t know if it’s a girl or boy yet but I don’t have any idea for a boy at this point.
I’m into the name Joelle, nickname Joey/Jo for a girl. We’d long had Jacob Robert for a boy when I was pregnant the first time, but now sure how we’re feeling about it this go around.
@auriculatus thank you!! Most people kind of look at us like we are crazy when we tell them because it's definitely not a super popular name. One of the reasons we love it so!

I'm between Zoë or Charlotte (going by Charlie) 😅😅 Zoë has always been a favorite of mine so I'm leaning that way! PGT done so I already know she's a girl, thank goodness because I had NOTHING for boys names!
Our son would have been Jane Kathryn if he was a girl - the only other “backup” we have left from the girls is Henry but I’ve kind of fallen out of love with that one. I think Arthur is the front runner for a boy right now, possibly with Stanley or John (husbands family names) as the middle name.
Everett Joel if it’s a boy. Still haven’t picked a girl name. H and I love the name Emma but I have a cousin named Emma. So I don’t think we can use that one.
So we came to an agreement! Sonia Tatyana if it's a girl (Tatyana is a longer form of Tanya which is my Aunts name) Vincent Giovanni if it's a boy. So either very Russian sounding or very Italian lol
@novamama2023 we may have to because we just can't come up with a name we both like otherwise and H now refuses to talk names until we find out what we are having. 😅

Does anyone else have an unnatural fear that if they start to share their baby names then they will somehow become super popular and have to be thrown out? When I was born my name was in the top ten baby girls names and I always had at least 2-3 other people with my name in every class. I’m so stressed about making sure that the name is normal/pronounceable while being unique.
@disneybaby23 yep mine was THE top girls name the year I was born. sooooo many Jessica's haha that's why I don't share names and refuse to pick a name that's in the top 100.
I had that fear also, and we chose a name for our daughter that could be for girls or boys. Not too uncommon, but never available on a keychain or necklace 🙃
@disneybaby23 you can look up name popularity on the social security website! Just Google "social security name popularity" and it let's you search for top names and to see how a specific name trends over time. My name is SUPER common (there were 4 other little girls in my daycare class with the same name as me) and I'm determined to save my children from that fate. 🤣
Re: Baby Names
. If it’s another boy we don’t know yet.
Naming a 7th boy is going to be tough! We don't want to reuse any initial that we already have which makes it harder. So far we have ABCEGHJLMRSW.
H doesn't like Nathaniel or Franklin which have been the front runners for me.

Sibyl is definitely a favourite of mine! Such a pretty name!

@lola-bean-11 my golden retriever is Mia so that’s off the table for us 🤣
Name question. Would you use a P name, first or middle, if your last name started with a P?
We are getting a little desperate and another letter being opened (since we don't want to repeat any initial for boys) would be nice. 😅

i love when people do that with the same letter for first and last name!

-James Mathieu- he goes Mathieu pronounced Matthew
-Everett William
-Charles Gregory
-Russell Albert
-Henry Luke
-Samson Boone
We are discussing breaking our no reusing initials rule. It's been a good run 😅
If we do break our rule, Joseph Paul is on the table.
