you can't have one called Shepherd and another called Michael or Emily.
i am at a loss. we have said we weren't going to discuss it until the big u/s, but i still like to think about it a little.

Re: what kind of names "go" with shepherd?
Sorry, I have never understood the "going" together thing.
You can have a child named Shepherd and a daughter named Emily.
You really really can.
What names do you like?
Maybe something like Noah, Graham, or something along those lines for a boy
For a girl you could do "classic" names if you like them like Lily, Grace, etc
i like Cecilia Mae for a girl (mae is my late grandma's middle name).
i am stuck on boys so far.
Lovely Lady,
Hunter, Fisher, Cooper for boys
I don't have any girls names.
Do you mean because Shepherd is uncommon?
Samuel is terribly common, Maliyah is not. I'm okay with it.
i'm not naming all my kids professions, thanks anyway.
have you tried nymbler.com? i put in shepherd and it gave me some quasi normals:
stanford, sullivan, sheridan, clifford, seraphina, schuyler, sinclair
and some bizzaro ones:
missouri, hildgeard, surinder, cinderella, archibald....
cecelia day is one of my top girl names!
eta: day is a family name
Henry, Murphy, Arthur, George, Samuel, Theodore, Woodrow.
For some reason I think a more old-fashioned name would go.
I was going to suggest Cooper, Grant, Owen - all of those seem to be in the same, what's the word, genre?
Anywho, I agree with Lanie - if you have a name in mind, go for it - nothing has to match.
Hell, I'm thinking about naming our next DD (if we have a DD) Kate, and Anna's middle name is Kate. Odd, probably so, but that's OK.
Cecilia is absolutely gorgeous - very classic, not over-used, but not eunique.

I love that name for a girl!
We had a very hard time with names for both kids. We finally decided on a name for DS a couple days before he was born and decided his middle name the day he was born. I had a list of 30+ names on it and DH crossed off the ones he didn't like and we narrowed it down to three before finally deciding. With DD I had several names picked out but we finally decided on Emilee Jillissa, we spelled it differently because Lee is the family middle name on my side and I wanted to keep it going but DH wanted to name her Jillissa (which now I wish we would have gone with for the first name).
We also didn't plan on the kids names sounding similiar, people give us crap for it. It was just the name we liked.

i'm so jealous that you get to know so early!!
I like Cecilia too. I have a younger cousin named Caroline Cecilia London *Lastname*. Those are all fam. names.
I like Schuyler for a boy. I think that's the original spelling, but I like Skylar for a girl. Kinda strange.
are you leaning one way or the other? brothers? or a new sister for shepherd?
i realized last night i am (not so secretly) thinking it would be nice to have sisters. not that i won't be thrilled either way
Grady, Gavin, Henry, Thomas, Garrett, Merrick, Jared
That's all I've thought of right now. I'm excited to hear if you're having a boy or a girl! I really like your girl name option!
honestly, i desperately hope it is healthy.
but because they will be so close in age, i think it would very cool for a little brother for the S man. (equally as cool for a little sister, seeing as how cute my niece & nephew play together)
