We're not having a serious name discussion until we find out what we're having. Based on prior conversations, though, if there's a girl in there, she will likely be Alice Jeanette (Jeanette is my mother's middle name and was my grandmother's first name). A boy will have the middle name Sebastian (DH's middle name/his grandfather's first name), but let's just say we have yet to find any middle ground on what constitutes a good boy name.
We're thinking Edwin (not sure of middle name) for a boy and Winifred (but possibly just Winnie) middle name options Jane (after my grandma) or Elizabeth (a family name) for a girl. We'll likely use the nn Winn for either.
@emilyzemily, I saw the names you posted and thought for a minute that Harrison Roy sounded familiar then realized I went to high school with a Roy Harrison!
I want to honor my SO's father if we have a boy and either name him Dallas Monroe (his name exactly) or Cian/Cien (pronounced Keyan) Monroe. I'm at a total loss as to girls names, kind of like the name paisleigh.
We have the name skylar Rae for a girl and not sure for a boy.. maybe Kurt Robert after my brother who passed away...but I'm not sure if I want that because I want my brother to be remembered not replaced (if that makes sense) it the name Tyler Scott.. Scott is my dad's name and dhs grandfather who passed away a couple years ago
@Karissa764 I don't think naming y or son after your brother would be replacing. I think it would be such a beautiful tribute. But you have to be comfortable with it!
We are going with Lillian Jeanette for a girl and I am desperately trying to talk DH into Elliot John or Elliot Gabriel for a boy. We shall see!

Thank you! Was thinking about it and I don't want to say "Kurt" and w people only thing about my child and not my brother. He was my only sibling and we were really close. He passed away two years ago at the age of 19. One of my twin sons has his name as a middle name but I want to do more. DH and I both like kurtis Scott. So it would be changing it so it's different but still after him
I'm 90% sure we would name a boy Charles Jude. But since we fully expect this to be girl #3, we need to come up with a name. We would like a 'C' name because we already (unintentionally) have the A & B, but that's obviously really restricting.

Keeping with our middle eastern culture both genders would have my husband's name as their middle name so the boy would be Mohammed Mokhtar and the girl we are still deciding but we like Aaliyah. Also I like Kamilah but hubby isn't having it.

We've had the boy name Mack since before we got married. It was my grandpa's (who was one of my favorite people in the entire world) name. I would love to pass it on. DH would like to use his (and his dad's) middle name, which is Martin, but I'm not so sure. I like James better, which was his grandpa's name.
For a girl I really don't know. I like Penelope (nickname Nellie) and Eliza. But I don't love them. We had such a hard time with DD's name. I guess we'll cross that bridge when we get there!
Elise for a girl and Malcolm or Calvin for a boy. No idea for middle names. My grandmother passed away at the beginning of the year and her name was Eileen Beatrice so I'd like to try for the E.B. initials if we have a girl, but it's hard to find a good B name that fits with Elise and our last name. So we'll see. Not looking for suggestions or anything, though. I'm not going to worry about it until we know whether we're having a girl.

Not even talked about it yet. We are looking tword the first hurdle....first appointment. I think once we get through the first trimester we may start talking about names.
Patrick Joseph after my father if it's a boy and Aoife Kay if it's a girl- I'm trepidatious to call a girl Aoife in the states (I'm Irish myself and the name is Irish said like E-fa) but my partner really loves the name.
We've been set on our first names for years and don't care what anyone says!
Girl: Haylee Victoria or Haylee Laura (DH really likes significant middle names and Laura is his grandma, who is darling. But I've always loved Haylee Victoria!)
Boy: Jaryd Scott (FIL's name is Scott and it is DH's middle name too)
We are letting the family at the gender reveal party vote on the name. If its a boy the names are Asher Anders or Roman Cowser (my maiden name has his middle name)..it will be Penelope Kay or Fiona Kay if the baby is a girl.
While your names are very nice, this sounds like a disaster in the making. So many things could go wrong with this idea.
We are going with Lillian Jeanette for a girl and I am desperately trying to talk DH into Elliot John or Elliot Gabriel for a boy. We shall see!
Elliott is the only boy name on our list right now. I like it a lot, but I'm not 100% sold yet. DS is Griffin, so I don't really want another sibling that ends in N. I know, it might sound irrational but it just too matchy-matchy for me. That makes it tough because a lot of the really great boy names end in N, in my opinion. Our current girl name is Petra. It's still early so who knows if we
will change our mind or come up with something else in the meantime.
It amazes me how many have their names picked out for sure already! This is such a hard decision for me!
We have Evangeline Lily for a girl and Elijah Ryan for a boy.. I think we are pretty set on the names and we started calling the baby E until we find out what it is.
We like Rosalie for a girl, still working on middle name possibilities. Also, I like Jake for a boy. We are awaiting our blood test results and will soon know the sex, so we will do more work on solidifying names later on
We have short lists but plan to postpone the discussion until we know whether we're picking out a boy or girl name.
At the top for boys right now seems to be Caleb or Cameron. DH really has got attached to the name Kamp, which I don't mind except our last name starts with P, so it unfortunately it sounds terrible.
For girls, my fave is Allegra. DH is OK with that as long as he can use Allie as NN. We also both really like Sophia, but the fact that it is currently so popular makes me cringe!
MN's will be family names

He settles her in her home as a happy mother of children, praise the Lord! (Psalms 113:9)
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understand, will guard your heart and mind in Jesus Christ (Philippians 4:7)
Boy… ugh. I don't know. DH isn't really working with me and talking turkey yet either annoyingly haha. Isaac was soooo hard, i was 36w when we finally chose a boy name. Even the MN is up in the air, it will be DHs choice, and DS1 mn is for him, and there frankly aren't that many deserving others in his family to pick from. We will probably use DHs middle name, it just stinks bc it is also his dad's MN which isn't a guy we plan to honor.
Anyhoo! My list I sent him last (which he hasn't resounded to yet ugh) includes:
Oliver, Charles (Charlie) - both names he vetoed last time, George, Archer (Archie), Calvin, Rory, Reuben (which means changing girl name, but ruby was a nod to a joke when we were dating about naming a child rhubarb).
We have a Henry and an Isaac now. Team green so we have to pick a boy name regardless...
