Alexis Claire and Chloe Elise are our top two contenders I think. But Abigail, Emma, and Claire are still kind of in the mix. Blah. I don't know why this time we can't just decide. I think it's because I like all of the names.
We have mostly settled on a first name: Corinne (nn most likely Cora). Middle name, however, is still up in the air. Given our longish last name, DH wants a short and simple middle name and we are trying to find one that we both like (and isn't used by a living family member or friend).
If Schroeder had been a boy, the name would have been Alaric Herman (middle name after DH's grandfather).
Married 10/06
Baby Girl "C" arrived on 10/07/14 (39 weeks, 6 days)
so far all we have is a middle name for baby girl Nemo. So for now her name is"Nemo" Michelle. I have no idea what will replace Nemo, but I figure we still have time.
Ellie Marie. (Just Ellie, like the spunky little girl from "Up." If she's anything like me, it'll be perfect.)
Aww I so love that movie. I have a hard time though when they find out they can't have kids and then when she dies, omg I just bawl my eyes out. Sorry I didn't mean to be a Debbie Downer. Now I am getting all teary eyed...
Our sweet boy is Declan Andrew. DH saw the name Declan in a movie a long time ago and he loved it. It sounds really cool with our last name, and I like names that are a little different
I love that name! it was Richard Gere's character's name in "The Jackal"
I've seen this name once before, but have never heard it out loud. How is it pronounced? In my mind I'm saying it "deck-lin".
DH got to pick the first name and I get to pick the middle name. DH doesn't like anything I come up with, so we are going with Jace Austin or Jace Cole.
I'm a longtime lurker and haven't participated much, but this is just too much fun! We decided to keep our name a secret until the birth, so it's fun to get to share somehow!
We are leaning towards Ashton Kumar. Kumar is a family name on my side as well as a nod to my ethnicity. And we just like the name Ashton although I hate that it's associated with Ashton Kutcher. Hopefully by the time DS2 is older, Ashton Kutcher won't be as popular anymore.
We find out the sex on Friday, but DH is so convinced it's a girl that he's only briefly discussed boy names. We were team green with DS, but DH just "knew" it was a boy, so again he only gave girl names lip service because "what's the point, I know it's a boy." While I'd love to have one of each, the competitive part of me wants to see him be wrong.
Girl: Emily or Lucy middle name: Wilhelmina - originally we liked Wilhelmina as the first name and Minnie or Willa as a nn, but DH changed his mind (I'm still hoping he changes it back)
Boy: Otis or August middle name Thomas or Nathan
DS is Charles William, so we tend to lean towards older names. We both love Lucy, but DS is still totally bald at 17 months, and he's been known as Charlie Brown forever, so I'm not super crazy about the Charlie Brown and Lucy reference. Had to AW my little Charlie Brown below:

Our names (as of today) are
Boy:
Robert Anthony
Joseph Anthony
Girl:
Katherine or Abigail with a mix of middle name options (Mae, Elizabeth, Katherine)
Our other name we like but I'm on the fence about is Eli Luciano. I feel like the Ls might be too much.
ETA: Luciano would be pronounced Loo-chan-o, the 'ci' in italian is a 'ch' sound.
Mason James
or
Oakley James

She will be the sixth Charlotte in my family. Her great grandmother and great aunt also still alive have the name.
Evelyn Marie was in our top 3 for baby girl names, it is my maternal grandmothers name & my middle name is Marie also!
