Struggling with choosing a name

KMS416 · June 2013

I'm 36w and team green. We still have not settled on a boy or girl name. DS is named Carson so we would prefer something that will go well with his name. Last name begins with an M and is one syllable.

Boy names we agree on: Bennett and Mason (the trendiness of this name I'm worried about, although I don't personally know a single Mason).

Girl names: McKenna, Kennedy, Kendall.

Opinions or suggestions on something different? I'm open to hearing anything.

I like both Bennett and Mason. with your LN starting with M, I'd lean toward Bennett.

Of the girl names, I think McKenna and Kennedy are way too trendy, and I'm not a fan. Plus the McKenna M____ issue. I love Kendall and wish more people would use it.

Other boy names: Aidan, Brendan, Evan, Ethan, Grant, Henry, Ian, Jackson, Liam, Peter, Reed, Timothy. Nymbler options gave me Donovon, Logan, and Owen (with Brendan and Jackson in there too, so I must be on the right track, LOL)

Other girl names: Ava, Audrey, Charlotte, Diana, Emerson, Elena, Elise, Francesca, Jocelyn, Kendra. Nymbler gave me Sydney, Olivia, Payton, and Harper (as well as Charlotte)

I like Bennett a lot and I think it sounds great with Carson!

I'm not into the other names listed.

Why do all the girl names have -ken- in them? What about Kendra or Laken

I like Mason and Bennett is ok. Not a huge fan of the girl names though. Kendall is ok, but all 3 seem a little too Kardashian for me.

We actually love the name Carter but some friends named their son carter last summer. These are people we don't see that often live 4 hours away...are we being too sensitive to not consider it?

I love the name Carter as well, and friends who named their son the same shouldn't dissuade you, but I think Carson and Carter are "too matchy" for a sibset.
