Your thoughts on these names?

sarcole530

I'm not preggo right now, but DS and I are talking about names for our next baby when we do try again. I don't have middle names chosen yet, but these are a few of the names we like. Honest opinions, please. :-)

Boys:    Forrest, Trevor

Girls: Scarlett, Delaney, Sawyer

BTW - the only reason I mentioned I'm not PG is because my sister gets on this board and I don't want her questioning me, LOL.

None are my style, but I dont' dislike any except for Sawyer for a girl.  The rest, are fine.

Forrest and Scarlett are ok... I don't like Trevor and the other girl names seem trendy.

DS means Darling Son

Forrest: NMS, reminds me to much of Forrest Gump, but not a bad name at all.

Trevor: Also NMS but cute.  Seems a bit dated, but that could only be because I only know men in the 20s and 30s with this name.

Scarlett: LOVE!  One of my fav girl names!

Delaney: Cute, but I am not sure how well it ages

Sawyer: To me this is a boys name, and I think it will be a pretty popular boys name in the near future based on how many times I see it on this board.

Forrest - NMS, but definitely not a bad name. Time will tell if the Forrest Gump association will be lost on future generations...He was a pretty iconic character, though.

(Even then, though, it's not like you're using Hannibal. Forrest Gump was likable and heart-warming at least)

Trevor - The only Trevor I know has always been a real PITA.

Scarlett - LOVE. I think it's a beautiful name.

Delaney - Though it's not really my style, I really like this name. A woman I worked with had a daughter named Delaney and she was such a beautiful and happy baby! I think it's a name a person can grow into.

Sawyer - Eh. Not for a girl. I prefer it for a boy.

I love that your son's name is Bryce, by the way. We can't use it because I dated a Bryce, and I think it's just plain weird to use ex's names on children. But I've always really liked it. It's one of the few names that I think works equally well on men and women.

Sawyer should never be a girls' name. There isn't anything feminine about it.

Scarlett I love, but be warned that it is climbing the charts. It's become far too popular for my tastes.

Delaney--ehh, it's okay.

Forrest: I like it, but I do think of Forrest Whitacre (honestly, that's not a bad thing, he's a great actor).

Trevor--feels dated to me.

DS means Darling Son

Yes, I know. I'm famous for typing "DS" instead of "DH," lol

Aww, thank you! It was one of the only names my husband and I could agree on.

Thank you to everyone else -- you all brought up great points. I totally forgot about Forrest Gump (how could I forget that movie?!)... anyway.. I think Forrest is out now, lol.

I think Forrest Gump, although your child's generation probably will not. (I also thought Wyatt Earp when my sister named her son Wyatt but no one seems to say that to him/about him anymore).

Sawyer is a boy's name to me. It's a boy's name I have considered, but like the way it looks more than the way it sounds. I also don't like that some people say Saw-yer and others say Soy-yer. The inconsistency is a personal pet peeve.

I like the others!

Scarlett!

forensicmama

I really don't care for any of these names. If I had to choose, though, I'd choose Forrest and Scarlett. I think the worst name on here is Delaney.

Glad to hear you're not pasta suace

I like Forrest, dislike Trevor

Sawyer is a boy's name, Scarlett is NMS but okay, Delaney is blah

The only good girl name on your list is Scarlett.

Thanks for clarifying...I would have wondered.  You need to start doing a better job of typing DH and not DS - it's creepy, LOL!  Also, I don't mind that you say "preggo."  Geesh, there are some snarky mommas on this board.
