another name clicky poll!

We need help naming our son!

We would like to use a family name or something biblical.  My H is big about the name having meaning and heritage. 

Carsten means Christ Believer in German (our heritage)
Noah from the bible
Heath is H's middle name
Emery is a family name going back generations, but with the trend to name girls boy's names I am worried about using it as a first name.[Poll]

Re: another name clicky poll!

  • My best friend (girl) growing up was named Emery, so it is a girl name to me. That being said, I love Noah and Heath.

  • I think of Emery as a girl's name too, but I love Noah and Heath, I voted for Noah.

  • I voted for Carsten. I think that Noah is WAY overused these days and all of the Emery kids that I know are girls. Carsten was on our list of names (my SO is German) but we ended up taking it off because the LO's last name is a strong "K" and we were trying to avoid strong "C" and strong "K" first names....

  • What about using Emory? To me either spelling is "boy" but if I saw Emory there is no way I'd think it was a girl.

    We want to use the family name and the spelling is Emery.  :(  And my parents live on Emory, so thought that might be strange!!
