No name yet--anyone else?

I am really struggling with this.  With my Ds we had his name picked out years before I was even pregnant with him

With this one I have lots of names I like, but we can not settle on one.

Anyone else having problems committing to a name?

Re: No name yet--anyone else?

  • Yes we have a list of names, but no number 1

  • I am still on the fence between two versions of the same name (even though my H prefers one over the other.) We have no middle name yet. I really wish I could just decide already.

  • We have a list of names....if by list of names you actually mean a baby book with about 90 names hilighted Hmm

    We'll name him before we leave the hospital...I hope.

    I haven't even began to think of a middle name! ugh

  • We're in the same boat.  When people ask me if we have a name yet, I tell them we have 20.  Lol.  I'm hoping something clicks soon.

  • I'm right there with you.   We are team green which makes it tough coming up with two names.  We have a list of our favorites,  but none of them sounds "perfect".   DH doesn't love the same names I love and vice versa.

    I have an u/s in two weeks so I am hoping once we see the baby again we'll get a better feeling on what name to pick.

  • We just narrowed it down to 2, and we aren't exactly committed to either/ or. DDs name was easy, and I was in love with Gabriel for a boy. We named our son we lost Gabe. This baby is a boy too so it's been hard!

  • I *think* we have a name- Katherine. But DH still really likes Susannah, which I love also. So who knows what will happen?

    I call LO Katherine, or Katie or Katarina- but if in the delivery room DH said he really wanted to name her Susannah, I would be okay with that too!

  • No name here.  We have a list of 5-6 names that we kind of like, but don't really feel any emotional connection to.  We have one name that we both really like, but it is the same name of the son of some close friends of ours, so I'm completely struggling with that.

    It just feels like maybe we haven't come across or thought about the *right* name yet.  I hope we actually arrive to a name that feels really good.  We had a list of girl names that was a mile long, and we could have closed our eyes and pointed to one and we would have both loved it.  Boy names... not so much.

  • We haven't really talked about it much.  The name Lily was brought up...it is a family name and I LOVE it! But, H isn't sold on it.  DD1 however has decided to tell everyone that it is her new sister's name.  I'm sure it will end up being Lily Margaret.

  • We have some name ideas, but nothing that we are committed to yet. Being team green makes names a bit tougher to choose since we need to have two picked out.

  • We don't have a name yet either.  People think I am crazy but I am just having a hard time committing.  We narrowed it down to Ethan and Cameron but now I want to go back to the drawing board and start over!
  • We go between two names, though I think I know which one we are going with.

    With the one I think we will go with, H likes a different spelling than I like, so we will then have to figure that out.

    Luckily for us, our middle name has been set since before BFP.  His middle name will be Bradley after my late father.  I actually picked out first names that sound good with Bradley. There's no negotiating there, and H is good with it.

  • We do not have a name picked out yet and are not close.  We like a few names but aren't thrilled with those choices so it's difficult.  Nothing seems right :(

  • Hahaha-maybe we will have one by the time we leave the hospital?  We have a short list of 10 of each sex at this point.  The ones I really like, he doesn't because they remind him of students that he had that were bad kids, lol.  The names that he really likes?  I just think they are terrible.  His number one for a boy is Wayland Jeremiah.  I told him he's crazy if he thinks we are naming our child that if it's a boy.  Our last name starts with a W and ends in kins.  Yeah, not going to happen. :)
  • No name here yet. It's really frustrating! I used to really like Aidan but now I'm kind of on the fence about it, just as DH is coming around to it. I love Nolan but DH doesn't, he likes Tyler, but I don't. We're pretty much just running circles around each other at this point. What do you think of the name "Kid"? We may just have to call him that if we can't agree on anything :)

  • DH and I each have a name but can't get the other on board. It will probably be a delivery room decision. It was so much easier the first time around.

  • We're there too, and I'm glad to see we're not alone.

    With DD we were team green and had a girl's name, but no idea for a boy's name.  Luckily she was a girl so it was easy, but this time we don't have a name for either.

  • We still have a list.  3 names and no solid middle names to go with them.  No worries!

  • We haven't decided yet either. We are each coming up with 3 names, first and middle, and hope to narrow it down by the end of the month.

  • I have a list. DH won't discuss it yet. I may divorce him over this, lol. Actually glad we don't have a name yet, my original front runner has changed... One day baby will be named.... Maybe
