We have ZERO ideas for a boy name. We really only liked Colin the first time around; everything else was just not as great. Every boy name I see I'm either not a fan or DH vetoes it (like Sam, Ben...)
Eh, don't even stress about it until your anatomy scan - unless you're team green? If so I missed that part.
DH and I were in the reverse situation - had a definite boy name, girl name was totally up in the air. And bam - it's a boy totally avoided hours of pointless head-scratching and arguing that would have been spent in vain about a girl's name
July 20th, 2012: Never forget the day the fb douchebags tried so hard, but ultimately failed. Viva la October 2011! Yeah, I called you douchebags.

Team Green Last time around, we had the boy name settled on right away, but struggled with the girl name. Now it's opposite.
Honestly, I've been having girl dreams, so I'm pretty sure it's going to be a girl.
Actually, now that I think about it we haven't really ruled out Eli. I just don't like Elijah or Elias. MAYBE Elliott.
Edited to fix quotation marks.
We are going with Eli - just Eli, not Elijah or anything else. Both sides of the family aren't thrilled and have begged for Elijah but I don't see the point if he's just going to be called Eli anyway.
Other names I like: Henry, Jackson, Walker, Lane, and Parker

Re: Now, WTF are we going to name this child?
Hmm.
Well, I do like Raptor Starship, but failing that I would nominate Ethan Tobias Spencer. Or just ETS for short.
You'll figure something out. What girl names do you like?
Well, the one that we'll most likely use is a secret
hehe. But other ones I like are Molly, Elise, Georgia, Emily (too popular though), Abby, Kate...
My BFF is expecting in a few weeks and she is naming her son Graham. I think it is so cute!
I love Noah, even though it's crazy popular.
My boy name is Grant. I love it.

I like Grant and Charlie too.
I just asked DH about Charlie. He said, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? You really like Charlie? I don't know, I have to think about it."
And to Grant, he said he wouldn't rule it out.

I really like Ben, DH doesn't. I really like Caleb too, but it's kind of close to Colin.

LAURA? Is that you?!?! Well, obviously it is. But if you're my friend Laura, you changed your SN on me!
We are going with Eli - just Eli, not Elijah or anything else. Both sides of the family aren't thrilled and have begged for Elijah but I don't see the point if he's just going to be called Eli anyway.
Other names I like: Henry, Jackson, Walker, Lane, and Parker
I have thought about going with just Eli too.
I have some spare boy names:
Gideon, Gabriel, Levi, Grant, Simon, Maxwell, Donovan, Colton.
And of course, the best boy name ever: Jack.
Hmmmm - well that's my name, but I'm not sure I recognize you, PM me!
Never mind. You would recognize me. My friend who is on the bump is also named Laura Elizabeth. Guess it's just a popular name!
We didn't use the name Jude, or Owen or Alexander this time around.
I second Raptor Starship btw.
ahh, well, yes it was a very popular combo.
