Baby Boy name - Husband and I can't agree

Louise Muller · October 2013

So we're down to two names. We like Both. Only my husband is leaning more to one and I the other.

The middle name will be George (my dad's middle name).

Husband's choice: Emery George

My choice: Evan George

vote for your favourite!

Emery reminds me of a girls name. I like Evan better.

Evan. Emery makes me think of emery boards.

hjweber · October 2013

I think Evan flows with George better. I like both names, though

babygiantquest · October 2013

I like Emery.

eliseccu · October 2013

Beautiful names!

I like Evan George though. It'll sound nice with your last name. I am a fan of shorter names in general. Emery is sweet too though. You can't go wrong.

Emory was my grandfather's name and my father's. I hate, hate, hate that it is "going girl." It will always sound masculine to me. And yet...I prefer Evan.

Evan!! I agree Emery sounds feminine

lollipoppoop · October 2013

I agree that Emery is a girls name. Evan for sure.

Louise Muller · October 2013

Thank you everyone! I am swaying towards Evan for sure....

And I agree with all the comments regarding Emery being used as a girl's name. Now..... I have to convince my husband

BlessedinMN · October 2013

I vote Evan as well!

UPDATE: its official! The name will be Evan George. Thanks for all your votes... they helped me 'sway' him my way just a little.

iHeartVan · October 2013

Evan.

ktpaladino · October 2013

Love Evan. But then again, it's my brothers name so I'm a bit biased

Emery is cool and different, but does sound a tad feminine.

laurakaz13 · October 2013

Emery. But I'm just not a huge fan of Evan at all. I love George.

Ashley was originally a boy name, too, but it isn't now...

hulashakingirl · October 2013

Another vote for Evan

Emery is a boys name that people have decided sounds super cool and awesome on girls right now.

This, but unfortunately the fact that it has been so overused on girls lately makes me lean toward Evan.

It's not.

Ansleyturner · October 2013

I've never met a girl Emory and I actually think it's a horrible girl name. It has my vote for a boy though

iona76 · October 2013

I like Evan! Even if Emery started out as a boy's name (so did "Ashley," I believe...), I only know girl Emerys, so I always think of it as a girl's name.
