I think we have narrowed ours down to either Benjamin or James, but I am still unsure. I just looked through our baby name book again and still nothing really jumps out at me. I would love to hear your boy names (what made your list, what name did you decide on, and even if you are having a girl I'd still love to hear what boy names are your favorites!).
Re: let's hear your boy names!
Our top 4 names are:
Brandon John & Mason William
Luke John & Jake William
I do love Benjamin but DH will never go for it b/c he hates the NFL QB of the same name
We had picked out Maddix until we found out it was a girl!
I like Benjamin - DH did not.
We have narrowed it down to Keegan or Nolan for a boy. But we are Team Green so we don't know if we'll be using them.
I also liked Liam and Christopher.
If we have a boy he will be Nicholas Alan. Both are family names for us. I loved Lane but DH didn't love it.

Our little man's name is Mason Alexander.
We found choosing a boys name to be super hard.
Bubblegum Explosion
We knew right off the bat of our lil one was a boy he would be :
Alexander William Lee
Domenic
I was asked a couple times over the Holiday what we were naming him. Their reply was something along the lines of hee haw hee haw...
Our boys will have gaelic names..
Finnegan James
Eoin Andrew
I like Benjamin and James!
We aren't completely decided, but right now Eli is our top contender. Other names we like are: Porter, Easton,Edmund (I don't like it as much as DH does), Nathan, Jacob (too popular for me), Phillip and Samuel.
I am having the same problem. We won't be deciding a name until we meet him but we want to go in with at least 3 names. We did this for our 1st son and it worked out well.
1st time around: Gavin Nicholas, Matthew Vance and Luke Austin. (All are names of significance to us.) When DS was born, we knew he was a Gavin.
This time: We are thinking that we will use Austin as a middle name but have a short list of Brock and Logan as first names. Brock is in the lead right now.
I am still looking for other contenders and would like to add to our list. After being a teacher, so many names are immediately ruled out for me. The ones I do like are nixed by DH.
If baby is a boy he will be Nolan. Other names I like are Christian, Isaac, Elliot, Nicholas and Alexander.
FWIW, I also like both Benjamin and James.
Our LO will be Declan James and DH is Benjamin so I like both of your names
With our first, we decided in the delivery room. I think my pick (Nathan) won because DH felt bad that my labor was so long! Hahah.
This time, our short list is:
Jacob - my pick, but uncomfortably popular - as a Jen, it's a concern! I love how it sounds with big brother's name (Jake and Nate = cute!)
Luke or Lucas - biblical like big brother's
Franco - DH pick, but I just can't get my arms around it - it reminds me of a spanish dictator! DH LOVES it though...
Benjamin - I like it, but I don't like that Ben rhymes with my name and in spanish sounds like the word "ven", which means, "come here."
For any of the above, the middle name would be Tomas or Thomas.
I think this might get decided in the delivery room again, after we get a good look at him.
DS1 is Gabriel Jacob. IF DC2 is a boy, he'll be Isaac Steven. (A girl would be Hanna Rosalene.)
We are set on William Cutter. He will go by Cutter! DH's initials are WCA so we gave him the same initials, different names.
Me (33). DH (37). DD (2.2012). MCs x4. After 4 years & 7 months, due 4.2018!
Welcome to the world, Baby W: born on 3/8/12 @ 3:49pm - 8lb 11 oz, 22 in.
Ours is Benjamin! But he will be "Ben" and NOT "Benji"! Love that name
My nephew is Benjamin, I love it.
Ours is Liam Clancy (Clancy is MH's grandpa----yeah...)
On our list for possible middle names (I was set on Liam) were Finn, Joseph, Arthur, but ultimately, I let DH choose.
