Baby Names

need some fresh ideas

We have been mulling over the same list of names since I was pg with DS and now some of the names dont sound as appealing to me for some reason (I am fully aware this could just be a weird pregnancy mood since I've liked most the names for years).

Anyhow our list of names were: Henry Neil (pretty set in stone, dont think DH will budge on this-- its after both of our grandfathers) or David Aaron.

For girls we like: Natalie Rose (Rose is my mn after my grandma who I am incredibly close with), Eleanor Rose (nn Nora Rose-- Eleanor after my other grandma), or Margaret JoAnna (nn Maggie Jo).

In general we like more traditional names and our last name is pretty simple, Glenn, but I feel like it weeds out any names that end with a hard "n" sound (Caroline, Lynn, etc.) Any suggestions?

ETA: the names Andrew, William, Matthew, John, Patrick, Elly (or any variation), Dora (or any variation), Hope, Anne & Amelia are out because we have nieces/nephews we see on a daily basis with those names.

  • I have a friend named David Aaron and I've always loved his name. 

    I also LOVE Maggie Jo- but I'm in Alabama and like most names that have Jo stuck to 'em!  

    ETA- Congrats on the pregnancy BTW! 

  • Love David Henry
