Let's talk names! If you had your baby today...

ChesTal · January 2014

Girl: Julianna Grace (FI's late mom was Julie Ann)
Boy: Gavin Michael (Michael is FI middle name) or Gavin Charles (Charles is my grandfather's name)

lmmiley · January 2014

Girl: Emma, Allie, Madelyn, Brynn, Norah, Skylar, Madison. I like them all. It will be sooo hard to decide.

Boy: pretty much dead set on Noah Kenneth (Kenneth is my grandpa's name and I've always loved Noah) I also really like Liam. My husband likes Jackson but only bc he's obsessed with watching SOA.

MrsGoody1118 · January 2014

Clara Jane or Julian James I also love Henry, James, Oliver... Girl names are hard!! We love our daughter's name so much it's hard to compare.

ang2016 · January 2014

Girl: Daphne Rose, Laura Rose or Nora Rose
Boy: Grant Duane, Nolan John or Benjamin Reid

But really I could never decide today!

Maxsmommy123112 · January 2014

honest opinion: is Max and Maddox weird together? I love both the names, my DS is named Max. Just not sure if they go together or are strange together.

....and as you can see I swear I am having another boy. Haven't even thought about girl names but I will have to because we aren't finding out!

BSTAN2000 · January 2014

We have a nickname we are calling the baby until we know its gender: Bosh. Our last name begins with "S," so it stands for Baby of S* Household. Bosh is doing great so far.

For a girl I like Charlotte Louise or Lillian Lynn (Both go well with our last name.)

As for boys, we're lost. It's been difficult to find names that are unique w/o trying too hard. We're considering Graham or Victor.

In my mind, those names seem way too close. I'm sorry!

Don't be sorry! I wanted your opinion, that's what I think but DH says he likes them together so we are not agreeing. Hopefully a few more people will chime in!!

jjenkinsreid · January 2014

So far we like the names Wyatt or Mason James (for a boy)...hmmm, no idea on girl names at all - maybe it's a sign that we're going to have a boy

LovingSoul2014 · January 2014

I love Aurora for a girl. For a boy, Michael seems lovely too, but does not work in any language as other names....

oxCherryBlossomxo · January 2014

If it's a girl it will be Lily and if its a boy Logan. And then we also like Vanessa and Hunter.

Girl: Madilyn (maybe Renee for a middle name?) Boy: Michael Scott (my BFF told me it's stupid to use two first names but I like it)
Nothing wrong with two first names. My son is named after a Tom Clancy character.... John Ryan. Isn't Michael Scott the boss from The Office? I love that show!

I have no idea! My family has a tradition of using the dad's middle name and grandpa's first name so that's how we came up with it lol!

Do you know this is the name of Steve Carell's character on The Office? Just thought I'd let you know because that name may have that association for a lot of people... He's really goofy guy.

Nope I had no idea until today when I looked through this board again!

Think about when they're tweens and getting in trouble. Try yelling their names like they're in trouble now. See how it works. haha

bumpuser5078523 · January 2014

I think Max and Maddox are way too close.
We probably won't even use an L name for any more kids because I would probably call them the wrong name. Haha

Maxsmommy123112 · January 2014

Thanks everyone. That's what I've been saying to DH. I love both names but just not together!

knnelso · January 2014

Girl-McKenzie, Reagan, or Peyton
Boy- Logan or Joshua

AmandaR204 · January 2014

Well I have a Julian, if I have. Boy probably Adrian, or Dominic. If a girl most likely Cecilia or Claudia.

Thought this was an interesting coincidence!
My name is Adrienne.
My moms name is Claudia.
My aunts name Cecilia.
My cousins name Dominic!!! So weird right?!?!?

Needless to say I love all those names

bthornton12 · January 2014

Annabelle Parker for a girl & Roland Michael for a boy.

emmylu30 · January 2014

For a boy think we've decided on Wyatt Guy (Guy is hubs family name) and for a girl not sure on first name but middle name will be Rose. I like Ella and Evelyn so far. Our son's name is Nolan Martin (my moms maiden name).

MrsLaLaBug · January 2014

Since we are talking names... NTBAB but I always get a good chuckle out of sharing SIL's middle child's name... annnnnd.... wait for it.............

Wetland. Cuthbert.

OHHHH yeah.
8-| :-O :-??

trebekastan · January 2014

I posted this on another board too but it's too good not to share. FYI...no insult meant if your name is listed here. I just thought it was funny/100% accurate. https://www.gq.com/entertainment/humor/201307/nine-baby-naming-rules-2013

bumpuser5078523 · January 2014

I am loving Harrison. But our last name is Johnson. Harry Johnson. Chad vetoed that. For good reason.

Middle name maybe?

knottie7ace63e861c80b99 · January 2014

Boy: Jonathan Michael
girl: Ashton Elizabeth

purplestarz · January 2014

My husband and I are both J names, and years ago we decided when we had kids we would do the whole corny J name family thing. For a boy we are already settled on Jaden. Girl's names are a hot topic. I liked Jocelyn and he shot me down. I haven't yet approached with Jillian or Jordyn yet for fear of rejection

drae86 · January 2014

@beck12803, I love it! But I'm probably partial because I'm Diana Rae
I really like the name Raelynn Diane for a girl. But DH is not having it. :-( I'll just have to try harder. For a boy, I like Andrew James but he liked Carter James (that was his name for DD2 if she had been a boy) . Now, he's not sure.

elisemays · January 2014

Girl - Willow Marie, though I also really like Piper, Brynn and Hannah. We'll probably stick with Marie for the middle name, it's my mom's.
Boy - Adam Stephan, husband is Adam and his late father is Stephan.

beck12803 · January 2014

@drae86 I'll have to use you in my argument. :-)

My mom and older sister's middle names are Lynn, my younger sister's middle name is Rae, and MIL's middle name is Diane. And I think it's cute. He can kiss off!! haha

I love lynn and rae. I think they're great names. Can't really go for Diane lol. But have been contemplating using Rae or Lynn as a middle name. I like the short middle names where you can combine with first name when they're in trouble! At least that's what happened when I was in trouble

poptart109 · January 2014

Jase for a boy. DH wants Danika for a girl. I think it sounds too close to DS's name (Dominic). We were set on Ava til DH's friends sister named her daughter that.

Telly21182 · January 2014

Girl - Gwyneth. I want August for a MN, my grandpa's name, but our last name starts with an S, so.... I'm not giving my child GAS as initials. Originally wanted Gwyneth Eleanor, but SIL and I were pregnant at the same time and she used Eleanor for her DD1 - Avery Eleanor.

Boy: right now leaning towards Camden Michael. Michael is DHs godfather and my brothers names.

alyssarenee90 · January 2014

Emma for a girl
Charlie for a boy

If its a boy middle name will probably be Paul no matter the first, as its a name they pass down in my DH's family.

Its hard to think of names that go good with paul tho lol.

Me and my hubby have been very agreeable so far in our name talk. which is good

I think it will be surprisingly easy. I've had the name Emma picked out for a girl forever, and He likes it. and he mentioned Charlie for a boy, before I told him that was my fave for a boy

So it very possibly could be Emma or Charlie

bookqueen · January 2014

I posted before about Riley Paige for a girl and I think we finally decided today on Connor Alexander for a boy

We waited until we met DD to name her.
We are planning to do that with #2, but we are going to have a list this time.
Haven't started thinking about this yet, but we both like Patrick, Desmond, and Henry. I like Fiona, Daphne, Ariadne, and Persephone for a girl. DD's name is classically Greek, so I would love another Greek name for a girl.

My mom is pushing for Persephone! I'd honestly never herad it before. It's growing on me!
