names names names...

I cant think of ANY!!! I keep telling myself that once I know the gender thats when I will be able to get a handle of it better but I cant even narrow down any. FI is no help he has come up with one name and that is Alex. Cute, I like it but not a fav. I think he just said that to shut me up since it could be either a girl or a boy name. With DS1 I had a list of 5 favorites the entire time. Since then the names I didnt choose have either been taken by friends, or FI doesnt like. I just no longer have any names that I "have" to have. Anyone else in the same boat?

  • We are having a VERY hard time with the boy name.

  • We are having the worst time with girls names...
  • I'm not having trouble coming up with names, but I am having trouble coming up with names DH likes.  He thinks the name should mean something or it should the name of someone famous in history.  Really?!?!?  How about you just pick a name you like??  Good thing we still have months to go because I have a feeling this will take a while to sort out.

    Here are my faves (no middle names yet):

    Boy: Evan, Alexander, Gavin

    Girl: Addison, Olivia, Jillian, Paige

    Us too!  We used the one boy name we could agree on for DS!

     

    We have a few more girls names....but nothing that I'm over the moon for yet.

  • We have a boys name, but NO idea for a girl.  My oldest DD said that God told her we were having a girl.  DH replied, "Well ask Him what he wants us to name her!"
  • We haven't even started discussing yet.  We have girl names left over from when I was pg with DS, but his was the only boys name.  Plus, I'm not as excited by the girls names as I once was.  Still like them, they're still my top choices at the moment, but nothing has really caught my eye.

  • we've chosen a boy name and a girl name but the girl name was tough we each had one in mind we ended up compromising and using his for first name and mine as middle name.

    We must be married to the same man. DH has mentioned John, James, and Alexander. I love the founding fathers too, but come on!

  • We are all set on names we both love. My only concern is that the boys name is Liam, and it's becoming a little too popular.

  • We're not considering any names until we know if it's a boy or girl. We have an idea that if it's a boy we'll name him after my husband (tradition in my family) but I don't know if my husband is sold on that yet. As far as girl names, that will be hard. We have very different taste in girl names.

  • We are screwed... LOL  With DS we used the one name we both loved- we each had another we loved, but the other person was not a fan.   We were team green and had no girls name picked by delivery, and that has not changed.  oy

  • I did have a list going for both boy and girl. I had this app on my itouch and would just randomly add names I thought were cute. had about 15 or so that i was going to narrow down. I let him look over it and I told him to let me know which ones he liked/didnt like. He ended up deleting all of the ones he didnt like which was everything except like 2. I didnt say delete, i said we need to discuss. so we obviously cant agree on crap. i know we've still got a ways to go but it's something i just want decided sooner rather then later.

  • Ugh yes, we are having such a hard time. We knew what we were going to name our daughter pretty much as soon as we found out we were expecting. Now I cant think of anything that I really like. Some that are so-so but not anything that I can say I am in love with or stuck on and it is driving me crazy. I feel like we are never going to name this baby.

     

    SO GLAD THAT MY HUSBAND AND I ARE NOT ALONE

  • We have a girl name all ready to go, but our top boy name right now is just one we like, neither of us love it. If we find out this baby is a boy I'm not sure what we'll do... thank goodness we have a while I guess!

  • I'm not really having trouble, but getting daddy to agree has been tough. We agreed on Ethan and Isla so we're sticking to those!
  • There's a fun site www.babynamegenie.com where you put in your last name and the gender, and it gives you the "perfect" baby name, first and middle.  It's pretty creative!  Also you can keep asking for suggestions if you don't like the first.  I thought it was more fun, and less overwhelming, than a lot of the baby name sites that give you lists of hundreds and hundreds of names.
