Big Name Post

Re: Big Name Post

  • This is Boy #4 for us, but my DH first.  He wants to name him Roy after his oldest brother who died and I just don't like the name as a first name for my son.  I don't mind it for a MN just not a first. 

    So right now our list has in no order:

    Finn
    Quinn (Cuinn)
    Reilly 
    Ryder

    Mn:
    Roy (DH brothers name)
    Dee (DH and his dads MN)
    Dean (gt. grandparents MN)

    The other boys are Kolby, Mason & Brenden
    He also thought we would be able to decide on a name the day we found out it was a boy.  Didn't happen.   

    Any advise would be great.

  • We trapped ourselves a bit by naming our first two "G" names.  Now I'm getting tons of pressure from friends and family to name our third girl with a "G" but am struggling...

    Without knowing your girls names, here are some girly G names I love! 

    Gianna, Gabriella, Georgia, Gwen, Genevieve

    Copy cat! ;) lol we like the same G names!

    Ha, I didn't even see your post at first. I added Genevieve and then added Grace too. I didn't realize there were so many G names I liked!

  • Our boy's name will be Aiden John.  I really liked the name Aiden Alexander, but DH doesn't like Alexander.  Plus, DH is John William, his dad is John, so he wanted to use John but not as a first name.  

    I'm not sold on the spelling, so feel free to vote in my siggy!

    @michigancam You don't have to go the third "G" route if you don't love any of the names!  My older sister and I are both A's, and my younger sister is an L - just worked out that my older sister and I have A names!

    @KatieKim0815 My niece is a Lucy, and I love the middle name Madeline to go with it too!

  • We are having a boy and so far, all we have decided on is Jackson. No middle name yet. We were originally going to name him Tanner but DH changed his mind so we might use Tanner as a middle name.

  • DH and I have really been struggling with names. we don't know if it is a boy or girl yet but the doctor is leaning towards girl but no conclusive proof right now.

    We were thinking Eleanor Louise for a girl. we know that Louise will be the middle name, as it is family tradition for multiple generations. Eleanor was my grandmother's name. I just worry it is too old feeling. We'd probably call her Ellie. everyone called my grandmother Lovie.

    for a boy we're having an even harder time. maybe Xavier but it has no nick names and is a mouthful.

    So far we are thinking of Emma Madeline or Lucy Madeline.

    Charlotte Madeline hasn't been ruled out but I think is not as much of a top choice as our others. 

    Siblings: Hudson and Ethan. 

    What do you think?
    Lucy Madeline is our front runner for a girl so this one gets major votes from me!

    ETA I feel like we have similar name brains because Emily Charlotte is my second choice for a girl.

  • michigancam, I think Gemma is sweet too! Though truthfully, I think it doesn't matter one bit if you choose a name that doesn't begin with a G. Better to be in love with it, right?

    :) comic fan yes. My Dad's name is James and I was wanting to use it as a middle name, then DH and I just happen to like the name Logan so its a bonus! Although, Wolverine is one of DH's favorites ;)

    I love Eleanor! My friend had a baby a couple of weeks ago and named her Eleanor after her hubby's grandma. I don't think it's "too old" it's classic.

  • Our little girl will be named Charlotte "Charlie" Jeanette T. Jeanette was DH's grandmother's name. We have a little boy named Benjamin Allen T. Allen is my maiden name. We think they go together nicely :)
  • We're expecting a boy and his name is Gavin John :)
  • I haven't posted names at all bc we tell no one until birth. But I guess I'm safe here. All my boys start w "E" and girls start w "A" :
    (Elijha, Ewan, Ezra & Aeriana, Annalee, Adalyn) so here we go-

    Twin A (boy)- Eliot Rowan
    Twin B (girl)- Alivea/Alivia Ruth (nn will be Ali) not sure on spelling.

  • We're having a girl :)

    Everly Ann (middle name might change)
  • Our little girl is going to be named Charlotte Elizabeth.

    Yay for so many Charlotte's!
  • Our daughter will be Skyler Marie (Marie is SO's grandmas name)

    ... and his #1 is Josephine and I don't love it. 

    Josephine is one of those names that has reallllly grown on me over time. It has some completely adorable nickname options (Jo, Josie, Joey)! What if you combined the two: Josephine Eden L.?



    @sarabeth27 - I don't hate it at all, but I knew a Josephine I didn't like so of course that ruins it. I hate when people ruin names.

    @playingonadream - I love that someone picked this out. See, @thomas930, only us nerds will know ;)
  • Alright ladies, the middle name is Isabella (my grandmother's name). As for first name, the front runner is a little different.
    1. Reggie Isabella (Reginald was my grandfather)
    2. Margaret Isabella (love Maggie)
    3. Maisie Isabella
    4. Maeve Isabella

    Thoughts? And let Reggie sit with you for a minute :)
  • for a boy we're having an even harder time. maybe Xavier but it has no nick names and is a mouthful.

    Boy's names are harder for us, too!  Xavier is one of our contenders, and the nick name will be "Xav" pronounced like "Zahv" because my family is partially French speaking, and the French pronunciation for Xavier sounds more like gZAH-vee-ay (it's hard to write out the way the "x" sounds, so the g in front of the Zah was the best I could come up with, lol).  So, even though my husband and I and most of the family will probably use the English pronunciation for Xavier, we still know that the other pronunciation is going to happen, and the nickname is definitely going to happen, just naturally. 

    I also think some people will just call him "X" for short, which is also fine with us. 

  • Macy Jane! I'm a little concerned it is a little too similar sounding to Mary Jane, but she will never really be called Macy Jane, just Macy so I guess it will be okay!
  • Can't use Regina. Kids are mean... I can hear the schoolyard chanting already "Regina, vagina, Regina, vagina".
  • I love love love reading everyone's name choices!

    We have finally decided on Cooper Alexander for our new little guy.

  • Lucas Salvatore..."Luke"

    Lucas was the name given by my husband to his would be little brother when he was 11 (mother in law had a late term miscarriage).

    Salvatore is after my grandfather.

    Can't wait to meet him!
  • Well my hubs & aren't sharing names with anyone, but guess we are safe here :) So far hubs has vetoed nearly all the boy names I have come up with except for one & it's really growing on me. I'm thinking his name will be Rowan Ennis O. Hubs loves Rowan & I like Ennis, as this is the town we were in running a half marathon when we found out I was pregnant. Any opinions? Other considerations would be Finley William, Rowan William or Rowan Michael.
  • Luka Charles. Charles is my grandfather, DH's grandfather, and the best man at our wedding's name.

    DS1 is Kaleb James.

  • We're having a girl and while I'm stuck on the name Emily for some reason, hubby isn't on board. 

    So right now, we're both liking:

    - Cassandra (Cassie)
    - Vivienne (Vivi)
    - Madeleine (Maddie)

    We'll pick a middle name once the first gets decided.
    I love Vivi! Adorable, and she can grow into Vivienne when she gets older too.
