Playing with ideas

For #2 (when the time comes)

DS is Nicholas James

Boy ideas (David is a family name)

Owen David

Liam David 

Declan Robert (DH is Robert)

Girl ideas-

Heart is set on Caroline Elisabeth (that would have been DS's name had he been a girl)

Lately I like Emily, Norah, and Lauren. 

Norah and Lauren go well with Elisabeth (which is a combo of both SIL and my sister's names) and Emily, I like with Arick, which is my grandmother's maiden name.

Thoughts?

I love Norah, but isn't Nick and Nora a PJ company? If you love it Norah, not a big deal though. I love Owen and Liam too. I like Owen and Nicholas as a sib set.

I LOVE Nicholas James!

I think Owen and Nicholas sound good together as a sibset.  I'm starting to tire of Liam, even though I like it a lot, it's EVERYWHERE on this board.  Declan is a great name, too but I don't love it with Nicholas.

I like Caroline Elisabeth the best of your choices for a girl, it's really elegant sounding and will age perfectly with her.  Norah and Lauren are fine, but Caroline has more sparkle.

I love Emily (Emily Elisabeth is very pretty) but I don't like it with Arick.  I think Elisabeth is the better way to go for a MN.

lol, Nick and Nora are characters from The Thin Man.  And now I guess a pajama company.

OP, I like all your girl options but love Caroline Elisabeth.  The boy options are fine; just NMS.

Of your boys' names, I like Declan Robert best.

Caroline Elisabeth is gorgeous, but I would love it if you could incorporate Arick in there. Caroline Arick also works very nicely.

Very nice choices.

Love your boy names - IMO, you can't go wrong. Not a huge fan of Caroline (find it kind of boring), but I love Elisabeth. I feel like Nicholas and Norah is too much. I'd go with your first choice - Caroline Elisabeth.

All good, solid names. I really like Declan or Caroline.

P.S. I love Nora(h) but, paired with Nicholas, I think of the pajama company and also the movie Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist.

Nick n Norah *snort*

I didn't even think of that.

I love Norah, very cute.  And I like Liam David for a boy.
