For real or fictional future kids? Me: if the twins were girls, they would have been Katherine James and Emilia Leigh, to be known as Kate or Katie and Emme. No more kids in our future, so anyone is free to take them : )
We'd like to have 1 more kiddo and we already have him/her named!
Girl - Sara Elizabeth
My mom's name is Serafina Elizabeth (super Italian) and so this would be after her. My middle name is also Elizabeth. 2 of my cousins are also named Elizabeth and my great grandma's name was Elizabeth . She lived until I was 19, so I was very fortunate to know her.
Boy - Daniel John
I have always loved the name Daniel. It reminds me of that little lion on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. And my dad and my brother's name is John.
If this one was a boy his name would have been John Charles and we planned to call him Jack.
Our finalists for girl names are: Catherine Ann (Cate), Eleanor Ann, Elisabeth Ann and Claire Margaret.

Just in case you wanted MY opinion. (I know you were hoping that I would chime in!) I love Claire Margaret with your last name! But the others are lovely too!
We would like 2 more kids. If we have a boy it would be Dawson Aaron for sure. My DH and I both love the name Dawson and Every 1st born boy on DH side has had the middle name Aaron for 3 generations.
If we have a girl not sure what we would name her but I really like Sophia.

If Toodle was a girl he would have been Anica (knickname "Nica"), except a friend had a baby right after we found out he was a boy and named her Anika, so I'm glad he was a boy since I wouldn't have used it after that!
i told ron if we had another one and it was a boy he would be named Luke, after seeing that Modern family where Phil said "Luke I am your father", OMG I can't believe I had never thought that fathers of boys named Luke could say that!! hahaha...
honestly, Audrey would have been James Paul or Paul James.. girls, i like penelope, violet, kate (katherine)...
Ron and Nora married 6.3.06

Allison, get out of my head! I thought the VERY same thing about Claire! I absolutely love it!
If LO had been born sans a penis, her name would have been Everly Grace. Before Everly, we were considering Emmaline. We are one and done, so the only potential Everly in our house would be a pet! LOL!

we actually had Annika on our list when I was pregnant with the twins! DH's best friends wife named their dog that so we exed that off!

See for me I don't want to pick a "popular" name with our last name. Put this way (most of you know my last name) we have one of the top 10 last names and every single place we have lived in the past 4 years we have had a neighbor with our last name. So I do love Nicholas, Sophia, Ava, Abigail, and Jacob they are too popular for me with our last name!
Here are some names we had on our list that we considered not as popular
Boys - Parker, Julian (this is my grandmothers maiden name), Cooper, Spencer, and Jayden (this would not have been used for Brady)
Girls - Juliana, Cecilia, Harper, Annika, Bailey, and Christa

we will see- we aren't sure we have any more in our future.
Our Journey from two to three!
3 IUI's, 2 IVF's, decided to move to foster/adopt.
12/24/2009 Baby C born, 2/1/2010 placed with us,
5/17/2011 Adoption final- we are finally a forever family!
We'd like to have 1 more kiddo and we already have him/her named!

Boy - Daniel John
I have always loved the name Daniel. It reminds me of that little lion on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. And my dad and my brother's name is John.
This is too weird. My name is Sara Elizabeth. Both of my girls middle names will be elizabeth. Dh's name is Daniel. Had we had a boy, his middle name would have been John, as that was dh's dad's name.

I love traditional names but we will only use family names so our pool is limited.
If we ever have more our top names are:
Emily Anne William Emmett John Thomas Henry Clark
Clark is a family name (obvs) and I kind of like it for a little girl too - but spelled Clarke. But that might be a little too far out there for me to actually do it!
Girls: Margot, hazel, everly, emerson, Stella, delaney, greir and Millie. Boys: Davis, jack, madden, Henry. We had a really hard time with boys names, so thank goodness we make girls!! Lol!

DH and I are feverishly debating girls' names at the moment. (I refuse to discuss names until about 26 weeks pg, but then it's a race to pick one!)
We thought we'd narrowed it down to 2. . . Then I decided I hated them, and re-expanded the list to 10! DH informed me this morning that there's only 3 contenders, as far as he's concerned
Eleanor/ Nora, Greta, and Lillian (nn Lily)
He has always been super anti-popular names, but has suddenly become fixated on Lillian, so we'll see!
If this one had been a boy, I'm fairly certain we would have gone with Griffin. We also like Gibson, but seeing that we live in Music City USA, that would have been a bit too cliche
We'd like to have 1 more kiddo and we already have him/her named!

This is too weird. My name is Sara Elizabeth. Both of my girls middle names will be elizabeth. Dh's name is Daniel. Had we had a boy, his middle name would have been John, as that was dh's dad's name.
Wow! That is quite the coincidence! Too weird! I can't wait to use one of them!
Future boys will most likely be Harrison or brandon. The only future girl name we have is Lauren. Def not set in stone, and we have no idea about middle names.
Brought to you by IVF, ICSI, limited fert, and oocyte cryopreservation. Because we're fancy like that.
If we ever have another girl her name will be Cora Annabelle and if we have a boy his name will be Clark Augustus. The C-A combination was not intentional, but I must like those letters

If we were to have another girl, she would be Charlotte Elise.
No clue on a boy's name. For years and years I was set on Holden, but I am over it now.
LOVE CHARLOTTE! But my name is Charla, and we've always thought that might be a little too close. Otherwise this name would be at the very top of my list!
This kid will surely have no name. I read the baby name board, the tri boards, even this thread - and can't connect with any of them. So many names I see now seem to be "trendy". And I feel like we hit the jackpot with Sam (given the combo with the last name), and it will be hard to come up witha similarly cool sounding name -again - not that Sam is so creative, but with the last name it's pretty rad
We had a girl name but now it seems boring. I really don't know what we'll do!
I am a runner, knitter, scientist, DE-IVF veteran, and stage III colon cancer survivor.

A) LOVE your new sig pic!
Now you totally have me curious about your last name (But I'm not asking!!) We also love DS's name, and feel like it adds extra pressure to "get it right" with this one! Fwiw, I've always loved Sam. It reminds me of Max, which is probably my all-time favorite. Too bad for me that we already named our dog that
if i had a girl she would have been Gwendolyn Gail... i have always liked the name Gwendolyn, and it fits our "g" requirement... and Gail after me
we loved the name Drake - that was our other choice for Griffin, but when we saw him we decided he looked like a Griffin... and then we were stuck with all G names - so I gave Drake to my friend who had her son in June and named him that, lol... with my blessing.
If we ever have a girl, she will likely be Annemarie Other girl names that were contenders: Alanna Elana Emilia Hannah Leah Leann Sydney
I think boy names are so hard. We agonized until we decided on Ethan--it had actually previously been removed from the contender list. Here are some that I would consider as of now: Andrew Branden Brendan Drew Dylan Ehren Ian Jarrett Joshua Vaughan
I had 2 girl names picked out and obviously was able to use them:)
But if the twins were boys they would have been Vincent Aaron and Mitchell Robert. I like very formal names for boys for some reason.
I love Louis Robert, but refuse to let my kid be called Lou Bob.

Asher
Solomon
Jonah
Isaac
Silas
Holden
Alec
Girl:
Delilah
Blythe

I also realize that I have very little in common with most people's taste in names since I hate 95% of the names people mention on 2nd trimester.
Just in case you wanted MY opinion. (I know you were hoping that I would chime in!) I love Claire Margaret with your last name! But the others are lovely too!

Our boy name was Benjamin Miles

Emmabella Grace
Addyson Grace
boy names:

Bryce Tipton
Haven't thought too much about middle names. I love Grace for a middle name and Tipton is a family name.

girl: Bryce
but i think we want a C name for our next kid...sooo
boy: Coley
girl: ??? (TBD)

i told ron if we had another one and it was a boy he would be named Luke, after seeing that Modern family where Phil said "Luke I am your father", OMG I can't believe I had never thought that fathers of boys named Luke could say that!! hahaha...

Caroline was very nearly Anna Caroline, or Emeline Grace.
If I have another girl, she will probably be Margaret Claire (called Maggie Claire), or Sara Claire. I'm very into double names these days.
I haven't a clue about a boy's name.
If the boys had been girls, they would have been Leah Rose and Gretchen Marie.
I also love Anna Marie, after my grandmother. It's her name, but she goes by Marie.
If we ever had another boy, he'd probably be John, MN TBD.
Names I love:
Boys: Parker, Cole
Girls: Avery, Paige, Emery, Addison, Ainsley, Claire

No clue on a boy's name. For years and years I was set on Holden, but I am over it now.
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
I seriously have no idea about boys names.
Girl names, Gabriella Reese, Samantha, Amelia...
I'm hoping that I get to name another baby and that it will be a girl...but at this point I don't care what the sex is!
Because we're fancy like that.
Our next boy will almost definitely be Caleb David.
We don't have a set girls name, but we like these: Sadie, Emma, Lena, Ellie, Ella, and Madeline.
I tend to go more with traditional names.
Girls - Emily Anne or Emily Jane. I also like first name Mary with a couple names like Mary Elise, Mary Leigh, etc. Also really like Julianne.
Boys - I don't know, I like Matthew.
LOVE CHARLOTTE! But my name is Charla, and we've always thought that might be a little too close. Otherwise this name would be at the very top of my list!
Too funny! E&H were almost Asher and Hannah. Instead E's Hebrew name is Asher:)
