To relieve us for a moment the stresses of charting/TTC, let's have fun with baby names! What names would you choose or possibly choose for your future kids?
We want to take two names to the hospital and then see which one best matches the baby. Here are names we really like:
Boy:
Dane Michael
Chase Michael
(Michael is SO's first name)
Girl:
Gwen Anita
Brynn Anita
(Anita is my SO's late mother's first name)
Re: Just for fun...Baby Names!
BFP #1: 12/05/2012; EDD 08/09/2013; MC 01/2013 (missed, D&C)

My BFP Chart
We also considered Josephine! We did take two names to the hospital with us when DD was born and chose the one that "fit" better. She's Rose (Rosie, most of the time), but she might have been Pearl Josephine (nn Josie--probably).
As it turns out, her looks have changed a lot since her birth. She could totally be a Pearl now.
Me: 41, DH: 45

I'm pulling for a second boy to be Callum (mn my last name)
DH and I are on very different pages with girl names but on the table would be Audra, Sybil, Keira, Jane at this moment. Lol
My DS is Declan Cooper and gets love/hate on the bnb (Cooper after my father)
My BFP Chart
Love this, I hang out on the Baby Names board every once in a while.
My previous name for a girl: Emma Lucille after my grandmother. Now I wouldn't use it bc cousins daughter is Emma (we are close), and Emma is so popular right now. I love old fashioned names though so with my previous pregnancy we had chosen Hannah Leigh. not sure if I would use that again or not bc if felt like that was for that baby if that makes sense
Currently in love with the name Jesse for a boy.
I love, love, love Brynn and Mae but they're my nieces' names. I also love Bodhi but it is too similar to our last name.

I love to dream about names, but I have a really tough time with girls names. His cousins (same last name) have used a lot of my all time favorites.
My other problem is working in a nursing home I associate a lot of the older names that get lots of love on the bnb like Margaret, Claire, Irene and so on with so many patients (good and bad). I don't think I could not picture so and so every time I thought about the name for my future kids.
There's are no girls names that DH and I have agreed on yet, I foresee this as a tough decision right to the end!
For boys so far we like Nolan, Cole, Nathan, Caleb and Pierce.
For a girl I like Isla Noelle or Isla Pearl (Pronounced eye-la).
My grandmothers name was Shirley. I really wish I liked that name more....
My hubby also likes Noelle as a first name. It is my middle name.
For a boy.....
Liam or William after my father. Middle names perhaps Vincent.
I also love the name Callan, one of my favorite students ever!
I also like Noah....
Gosh, that really is more fun to consider!!!

My BFP Chart
Boy: Charleston Liam or Liam Charleston
The girl name was the second choice on my list for my duaghter. So I decided to keep it and use it if/when I have a second daughter.
The boy name is a family name. Charleston was my great grandmother's maiden name and Liam is after my father who's name is William. I love using family names or a variation of.
How funny Isla is my girl name as well…..I also love Lola.
