Girl will be Olivia Jane. Boy wil be....???? No. F'ing clue! DS was two days old before we settled I a name for him. Boys names are way harder for us. I don't know why. We are Team Green, so at least we have a while to come up with some ideas.
My Hooligans.....Samuel Brice-Fritzgerald (6/30/10) and Payton Elizabeth (7/23/08)
We've been told it's a boy at 2 different ultra sounds... Our boy name is Grayson Courtland II (after my husband) and we'll call him Court. If for whatever reason our little boy turns into a little girl at the a/s then we have some talking to do bc we never came to an agreement on girl names. I like Reese and Kinsley though.
We are having a girl, her name will be Madelyn Mae (I finally convinced DH to change the spelling from Madeline so people won't be confused on how to pronounce it.) Mae is my grandma's middle name.
Our boy name was Benjamin, which I love. It was our boy name with both pregnancies.
Pepper. It will be Pepper Grace for a girl and I not sure about a middle name for a boy yet. DF name is Ryan but I dont know if I like Pepper Ryan or not.
Pepper was my top choice for a girl. Love it

The kid insists his brother will be named "Benjaben." We're humoring him for now, but I'm having a ghastly time coming up with a middle name to fit with my husband's surname. The only one I like the sound of so far is Patrick, but I'm not wild about the initials BPY.
@cristykaye, will the baby be Pepper whether it's a boy or girl? I recently met a little girl named pepper. It's really cute and not super out there. It was also the nick name of an adult female I knew.
@camrynnsmommy, Norah Katherine is lovely. Katherine is for sure a MN pick for me. But my FN is Laura so Norah is out for us.
Our names are Josephine Elizabeth and Harrison David. I'm feeling like we will end up with a Harrison but we will find out for sure on jan 8.
@copperpoppy I love the name Harrison! Unfortunately, it's the name of my OBs son, so it would be slightly awkward. Great choices!
We're pretty sure it's a boy, so it's Dean Lynwood (Lynwood is my Dad and grandpa's MN) and on the off-chance it's actually a girl her name will be Clara Jean.
Girls: Norah Katherine, Maeve Louise Boys: Beau William, Finn William
Our leading boy name is Finley. And we would call him Finn. My husbands grandpa was adopted so our last name isn't really what it should be. It should have been Finley so we thought that was a cool way to honor the blood line
Girls: Norah Katherine, Maeve Louise Boys: Beau William, Finn William

This wording rubs me the wrong way...do you mean that his adoptive parents' last name isn't his "real" last name because they're not related by blood? The reason behind the name, it being his bio last name, is sweet, but saying it's not his real name just rubs me wrong....
We've talked about it a little bit, but like you, will wait until we've found out the sex before really talking about it. We did the same with DD - there was no point in fighting over two names when we only needed one
The few we've talked about: - Nora, Natalia, Melina - Jack, Dominic
DH refuses to talk about names until we know whether it's a boy or a girl, but here are my choices:
Charlotte Ruth Charles Walter
Both middle names are family names. I've wanted Charlotte (nn Charlie) for a girl as long as I can remember. The only problem is, if I get a boy and use Charles, I no longer have the option of Charlotte down the road (same nn).
We are having a girl and her name is Adelaide Amaryllis never heard it before and we love it!
I've heard of it and love Adelaide! My husband and I both love it but our last name starts with Ad so we felt it was too many A's and D's, especially if someone called her Addy
We've only agreed on Ava and Cole so far, but I'm not totally sold. I like longer names that can be shortened. I love someone's earlier idea of Eva, short for Evangeline. Very pretty!

I said it isn't what it should have been, not that it wasn't his real name. It is obviously his real name because that's what we use. No need to make something out of nothing
I really wanted Lauren for a girl but hubs vetoed it as too masculine (despite the spelling). We are leaning towards Claire Patricia (Patricia after my grandma) and for a boy it will be Benjamin Theodore (Theodore after hubs grandpa)!
We have our girl name decided, and we have shelved the name discussion any further until we find out what we are having, because there is no use fighting over a boys name if we aren't even having one lol.
We've narrowed it down to 2 girl names and 4 boy names. We've decided not to discuss it again until after our A/S on 12/10 but we're not opposed to waiting until LO arrives to decide the name.
We have a polish last name therefore the popular American names sound kind of funny. We looked up eastern euro names to help decide, plus they'll have a unique name unless they move to Europe. We like Henryk (Henry in Polish) for a boy and Mila (Slavic name since my mother's side is Serbian) for a girl.
We had a girl name picked out for years and were thrown for a loop when we found out we were having a boy! After a lot of name searching we decided on Aidan James.
We found out we are having another boy. Our 18 month old is Dominic Frank and this new little one will be Vincent Hugh. Our girl name is Sophia Rose and its been the girl name for all of our pregnancies. Will be again if we have a third!
To the ladies who are suggesting Evangeline, please do it. I don't think we could ever use it bc hubby won't go for it but I love it. Eva, evie, ang, Evan, van, etc all great NNs. And it's just so pretty.
For a boy we had Tyler Aaron. We hadn't considered any girl's names because my fiance's family is all boys so I'd figured we were probably having a boy. When we found out baby is a girl we the names Claire Ann and Caroline Ann. I'm sold on Caroline and refer to her as so when we go to the OB and stuff. I think he's gotten the hint that baby girl is gonna be named Caroline Ann. Haha.
This is each of our's second (that sounds weird?) but our first together. We have completely different preferences, he likes traditional, I like more modern yet still uncommon. We've had a few sessions of just throwing names around, but I fear it'll be the end before we can both agree on one. Maybe one of us will just bring one up and both love it. Yeah right!

This was my H and I, we have very different styles. I finally stopped suggesting only first names, and started sending him via text first and middle names that way he could see the spelling and actually have time to say it privately and he saw the light and went with my names.

My H and I too. Completely different styles. He wants to name after people and I just like what I like. My first baby was Elisabeth for his grandmother, then I named Asher, because I just loved the name, and if this one is a girl she will be Lola for his other grandmother. It has taken me a while to get on board with Lola.
Boy: Liam Robert or maybe Kaden idk I've always wanted to name my son Bentley but husband is completly against it which ruins every other name for me so ill have hubby pick that i nr
We have picked two names for each sex:
Girls: Norah Katherine, Maeve Louise
Boys: Beau William, Finn William
my best friend's daughter is named maeve and at first everyone was a little weird about it, but now I can't imagine her with any other name. It's super adorable. and she refers to herself as "Maevey".
The kid insists his brother will be named "Benjaben." We're humoring him for now, but I'm having a ghastly time coming up with a middle name to fit with my husband's surname. The only one I like the sound of so far is Patrick, but I'm not wild about the initials BPY.
I spend a lot of time on Nymbler.
@typeset My son's middle name in Benjamin. He calls himself Asher Benjamenja lol. I think Benjaben is super cute!
For all of you who think you're weird for having names before you were preggo.... we had our names picked out while we were still freshly dating.
We are keeping our names top secret to friends and family until the gender reveal, but I feel as though it's safe to divulge here.
Girl: Adelynn Naomi (jury is still out on the spelling of the first name, but pronounced "Add-uh-lynn") Boy: Asher Ellison (i've noticed some other Ashers on the board too! love it.)
