DS1 is Carter Allan (Allan is in honor of my father who passed away), had he been a girl we probably would have used the name Vanessa Marie.
DS2 is Casey Anderson (we had Kyle or Kevin Anderson as an option until the day before he was born. We didn't know he was born and I didn't LOVE those names, so he was officially named Casey Anderson 1/2 a day after birth- before then he was nameless). If DS2 was a girl we would have probably stuck with Courtney Anderson.
My DD is named Esme Delilah, but I also wanted to offer up Adelina. I met a beautiful Italian lady with the beautiful name Adelina and wondered why I'd never heard it before. I guess it's more common over here than in the states.
Our son is Morgan Xavier...next boy name: Quinn (DH's middle name) still undecided about the middle name...we didn't decide on Xavier until the very end.
If he was a girl his name would have been: Leah Emily...if #2 is a girl: Chloe Emma.
We thought about using Leah for #2 (if girl), but we moved since M was born and his new bestie's name is Leah Jean.
After those names we're pretty undecided. DH has some names I think of as weird...like Tripp and names from movies. He actually talked about calling a child, Wolverine. For this reason, I hope we only have 2 boys...but only bc we can only agree on 2 boy names. He's pretty good about girl names.
I also love names like Dimitri and Anastasia, but can't get DH on board. I also like the name Katherine.
My cousin had a Lillian Rose 3 months before DS was born and if she had been a boy (they didn't know what she would be), she would have been Jameson Quinn, which I like too. But I'm glad she was a girl...then I can have Quinn, myself. Their older son is Roger Keagan...called Keagan.
If she had been a boy we had considered Cy Richmond. Dh has since then decided he doesn't like Cy anymore and likes Wyatt. If #2 is another girl, we really like Piper Elizabeth.

people ask about Liam as a nn for William. In my family (great uncle) it is used as a nn for William. We also have a Will, and a Bill since William is a popular family name for both side of our family we need any nn we can get.

Moira Paz Josephine. We added Paz to her first name in honor of DH's grandmother who passed away 2 months before she was born.
If she had been a boy it was Declan Issac.
Quinn Olivia and William ( nn Liam) Henry
