I know I'm only 11weeks-ish.. but DH and I have already come up with baby names.
Boy: Lincoln David (We just love Lincoln and nn Linc... and David is a family name)
Girl: Abigail "Abby" Claire,
Emma Claire,
or Claire Elisabeth.
We also like Amelia but DH is big on Nicknames and there's no nickname for it that he likes..
What do you think? Do you ladies already have names in mind? What are your top picks?
Re: We've decided on names already...
I love your girl name picks! Very cute.
edit to add: Our name picks are more then likely going to be Evangeline or Alexander.
9 angels in heaven-3 in my arms and 1 in the NICU
Mono/di twin girls: Josephine born to heaven and Evangeline born Earthside at 25w
Jonathan Michael is DS2's name :-) I love it!

I think of all the girl names (which are all pretty) I prefer Abigail Claire. Very cute.
I know a little Amelia and her mommy sometimes calls her Elie (pronounced Ee-lee)
I am kinda obsessed with baby names but I find girl's names to be a lot easier. We have a girl's name for sure: Ava Francesca. My sweet grandmother died last year of brain cancer and her name was Francesca. I always wanted my daughter to know her but since that's now impossible I'd like her to carry a piece of her around every day.
As far as boys go DH and I so far like Samuel the best. But we've also talked about Mateo and Micah.
My SD's name is Amelia and we call her Mia or Mi-Mi.
For a girl, our name is Abbigaile Mae Elizabeth
For a boy, it's going to be either Adam Lee (named after DH so he'd be a Jr. and we'd call him A.J.) or Benjamin Lee.

Love your names!
We've just barely started talking about names ... I have a list a mile long for each sex, but figure we've got quite awhile to pick some.
Today, my favorites are:
Girl: Delainey/Delaney, Harlow, Kennedy and Brynn
Boy: Grant, Roman, Noah and Weston
I have a friend named Amelia and we call her Lia ^_^ I think all your name choices are cute!
Personally...I want to have a traditional baby naming ceremony and I will not know the gender beforehand...so I will meet the baby before I pick a name.
As for names in general, I lean toward Irish/Celtic baby names ...and honestly...names from strange shows or movies! haha
But yeah...I will see what the little one looks like before I pick the name.
I'm a huge fan of Amelia. Infact, that name is on our list!! I'm obssessed with names and always have been since I was little so our name list is quite large. hehe.
I'm also a huge fan of Claire. i think Amelia Claire is my favorite. Hopefully your DH can find a NN he likes.
Girls: Amber Laurene
Lillian Annette
Amelia Rose
Vanessa Rose
Magdalyn Annette
Boys: Simon Robert or Leo
Henry Leo
Joshua Leo
(there are lots more, but those are my favorite right now. Also, all middle names are after family members.)
Good luck!!
I love all of those names! Abigail is one of my top choices as well. Did you think a bout Mia for Amelia? that's the one that comes to mind for me.
We are feuding still ha. DH says we decided years ago on William Paul and Elizabeth Ruth after grandparents and done, done, that's it, end of story. Me......now I want to discuss other options. LOL. But we would still stick to very classic names bc that's just our style.
Adorable names!!!
We are pretty set on our boys name: Richard William (Richard is my dad, William is my DH) I think we will call him Richie. I also like Luke Richard or Cole Richard. I adore my dad so I really want to honor him by using his name.
Still deciding on girl's name. We like Maggie Jane, Megan Leona, Tinley Jane. Still trying to decide. (Jane is a family name on my side and Leona is family name on DH side).
If it is a boy it will be the IV, and we will call him Kip (family naming thing)
If it is a girl, I like Gracie Rain, but not sure about using Gracie vs Grace. We like Layla Rain too. Still arguing about a girls name
I love names. We had a conversation a couple of months about this. All would be family names/takes on family names and here are a couple of favorites:
Boy: Liev (have a lot of middle names to choose from but haven't chosen)
Girl: Sophia or Eva
We are set on Owen Michael for a son.
Girls names are so hard. I like some but DH hasnt found one he likes yet.

I clearly like your name choices since, oddly enough, our girl name is Claire Elisabeth (spelled that way even)... runner up is Claire Olivia.
Our boy name is Everett Lincoln (both family names).
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living my baby you'll be.

I LOVE Emilia! Do you find people often mispronounce your daughter's name, though, calling her Amelia (either in speaking it or spelling it)? That was one of my concerns.
Love the names!
I grew up with an Amelia, and we always called her Amy
Once in awhile, but not too often. We call her Emi quite a bit, and people like to write Emmy, but I just gently correct it and don't get too hung up on it. I love her name
