Help me with Baby #3!

~Kat~

DH and I have a really hard time agreeing on anything. Our sons are Maxwell Robert, and Ivan Friedrich. So far our pattern has been Name We Like + Family Name, but I would be willing to switch it up if I loved the combo.

If the baby is a girl, her first name will be Elizabeth which is a family name, so we could put any middle name with it. Elizabeth Rae or Elizabeth Renee are two we have considered. 

For a boy, family names we could choose from would be Ray, Jeffery, Dylan, Janssen and Lee. I know, not a huge selection. We would most likely stick the family name in the middle. 

Anyone have good suggestions?

Alexander Janssen

Gregory Janssen

Anthony Janssen

Anthony Ray

Zachary Janssen (I like the idea of Zach as  NN so then you'll have most of the end of the alphabet represented with Max, Ivan, & Zach.)

Joseph

Benjamin

Lucas

To go with Elizabeth:

We love Alexander and that would totally be his name if SIL hadn't already used it. :-(

I forgot that DH said he really likes Zachary! It's just ok to me, but I think I could warm up to it.

What about Benjamin Ray?

I'm in the same boat... baby # 3, first two were boys and we used names from his side + name we loved.  This time I want to honor my family and weirdly enough our boy names are favorites fn - Owen or Rory / family mn- Raymond, David & Lee, (I would like to use Owen Raymond but he is not on board with with Owen).  For girls all we have is Mary for mn after my grandmother, but I'm thinking of using Mary Rae or Mary Raegan to honor the Raymond even if its a girl.

Ugh, sorry I was no help there but good to know I'm not the only one with these little problems.  Good luck!

I like Dylan Lee. And Elizabeth is very pretty!
