Anyone else still not have a name?!

DH and I still have no name for this baby. We just cannot agree. We had a couple we liked a few months ago, but now he's pretty much against them all for some reason or another. He went through our baby name book and came back with one freaking name - Caleb. I am personally not into biblical names (which he knows) and I don't feel like it goes well with DD's name, which is Aubrey. Ugh...5 weeks left and we are at square one!

Re: Anyone else still not have a name?!
frozen transfer a success! boy #2 via VBAC
I am terrified we will end up like my parents when they had my little sister. They couldn't agree on a name and so we all called her "baby" for 2 whole weeks until they finally agreed on one!
PS - I am open to any boy name suggestions from you ladies. I keep hoping one will jump out at me and that DH will like it too!
We don't have a name. We can't agree either. Everyone always seems so surprised when I tell them that we don't have a name when they ask and indicate that "We need to start deciding soon." I'm personally not too worried about it though. We have one name, Grayson, that we would probably both be ok with so unless something else pops up by then, that might be it by default.
Oh, and I love the name Caleb! It is one of my top choices, but of course my boyfriend doesn't like it.
This is us too. So frusterating. If we were having a boy, we already have his name picked out: Carter Jeffery/Carter Owen. But alas we are having a girl. Which is GREAT, but she has no name. I keep teasing we are going to put her first name as Noname on the birth certificate until we can come up with something we both like. I think part of it is hormones. Note to self, don't make major decisions while pregnant.
OP- Here is our short list from when we went in to have DS:
-Lincoln
-Carter
-Noah
-Preston
-Bennett (This is what we chose for DS and we love it)
I also liked Wyatt, Ethan and Liam, but DH didn't care for those. He liked Titus and Reuben (which I vetoed). GL!
No name here. Dh is really, really picky. He wants to use a family name, but doesn't like any of them (well, it's not like there are going to be more in the future, sweetie-family names are what they are, and you can't magically generate more). The other day he suggested a neighbor he's known his whole life, Roy, who recently passed away. Really? A neighbor? I understand the guy was really nice and part of the community, but our kid will have never known him and -ROY-??? My mom keeps suggesting ridiculous names like 'Strong' (he should be given a name of a characteristic that you want him to have-what?!?). I've given up.
I think it's going to be a 'we need to see him' situation. I'm trying not to stress, because it won't make it any easier. I'm also frustrated because if it were a girl, we had the name. Dh has insisted on it since we were dating, so I've always known our first girl would be Elsa. I think because I gave him the girl name, I should get to pick the boy name. Not sure why he gets both. I should have negotiated that ahead of time....

Ha ha. Yeah, I'd stick to your guns on that one....Roy. Oh, and I'm not throwing stones by any means. The other day DH suggested the name "Blessing" for a girl. Yup. Noname is looking better and better.
This is us too. We may have picked a girl name last night, but I don't want to share it in case it isn't right. We have 3 boy names, one I love, one H loves, and one we are both ok with. We'll just have to see when this baby comes out!
I will add, the more I say our girl name in my head the better it sounds.
this is us, too. We settled on Vivian for a girl but now I am second guessing myself. Plus I am worried it is getting too popular. Not that I need a totally yoo-nique name, but I don't want to be Vivian K.'s mom either.
