Have to choose new names at 35 weeks :-(

in Baby Names

We have had our names picked out for about 4-5 months now. Long story short - DH found out that two of his first cousins recently had babies and one used our girl name (Ava) and one used our boy name (Landon). DH now feels weird about using those names and there is nothing I can say that will make him change his mind. I was upset last night but am moving on and trying to find new names (we are team green). I have a small list for each with some names that I like and some that DH likes. I would love feedback - positive or negative. I was hoping to use the middle name Jillian after my mom and Paul after my grandpa. TIA!

Girl: Paige, Hannah, Lila/Lilah, Sienna, Emma, Riley

Boy: Lucas, Connor, Cameron, Noah, Ethan, Gavin

    did you announce them yet?  if so then how would they think you copied?

    I like Lila and Sienna. The boys names are all too popular for my taste, but Lucas would be my pick.

    That's a bummer, but if it helps at all I actually like some of your new name choices better :o)

    I love Hannah Jillian and Emma Jillian for a girl!

    I love a lot of your boy name choices, but my favorites are probably Noah, Connor and Lucas.

    That blows! I'm so sorry. I like Riley or Emma (though i like all the names!) and Connor or Ethan. Actually, I like all your names, I'm just trying to think of the MN combo :)

     

    Good luck!

    I love Hannah. Paige is really pretty too. Ethan and Noah are great boy names. I really like all 4 of those names. I like them more than the original names you picked.

    Give DH a few days, maybe he will come around! Your kid will hardly know those cousins - that's what, second cousins?? In our family if it is past first cousins, the name is fair game!

    I actually like all of your names a lot. Looking at them with the middle names you've picked, my favorites are:

    Lilah Jillian

    Emma Jillian

    Hannah Jillian

    Lucas Paul

    Connor Paul

    Gavin Paul

    We have very similar taste in names!  Our DS would have been Paige if he had been a girl.  Lucas and Gavin were both on our shortlist before we decided on Landon.  You will find the perfect name for your little one!

    That stinks!

    I like Riley and Emma out of your girl names.

    It's tough for me to choose your boy names since I like all of them besides Ethan.  I think my favorites would be Lucas followed by Cameron.

    Great name choices! I am using Paige for a girl if I ever get the chance to. I also like Emma and Riley. I like Connor, Lucas and Noah best of the boys. You can't go wrong with any of your choices though(in my opinion :).

    That sucks, personally I would still use the names, but if your DH won't budge...

    Anyway, I LOVE all your new names too!  Lila is my fav, it's currently in our top 5, but I don't really like Lila Jillian.  Sienna Jillian isn't bad.  I think Lucas and Connor are my favs of your boy names and both sound good with Paul. 

    Since we seem to have similar taste in names, our #1 boy name was Nolan - you might like that too(?)

    I love them all, but if I were choosing from the list and I had to choose just one boy and one girl name, I would choose Lila and Ethan.

    Acutally I really like most of your names...this is my opinion

    Paige or Lila/Lilah for a girl....Hannah Jillian doesnt flow for me, Sienna and Riley are  NMS, and she will have like 100 classmantes with the name Emma

    Lucas or Noah...just because i like them, all the boys names flow fairly well.

    I actually love most of the names you posted.  For girls, I like Paige or Riley best.  I also love Jillian.  For boys, I love Lucas and Ethan.

    I love Paige and Lila! Both were on our girl list.

    I like Noah and Ethan for boys.

    I think Emma & Gavin are cute, but too trendy/popular for me. Just my opinion.
