We are doing Clara Nicole. Clara for my DH's grandmother he was close to, and Nicole is my middle name. DD1 is Ryleigh Blake and she has her Daddy's middle name.
Vivian will be this LO's name if it's a girl. MN may be Rose... Still brainstorming that part.
DD is Olivia and I think Viv and Liv would make for the cutest of sisters! Though we may just NN her V because I can see how Viv can become annoying if her sister is already Liv.
Yay! Glad to see I'm not the only one who picked a second girl name based on how well it would sounds with DD1's name. My husband thought I was a little nuts when I was like " Annabella (DD1) and Ariana sound like such cute sister names!" He seriously rolled his eyes and said "ummm no". Such a party pooper.
We just narrowed our names yesterday. For the first time my hubby was truly excited about a name. Her name will either be Arabella Charles Elizabeth or Arabelle Charleigh Elizabeth. A mouthful, I know, but each name has meaning to us. Family will most likely call her Charleigh either way. Hubby's favorite part. . . Her initials will spell ACE! Lol.
I am having twins and we have tentatively decided on Nova and Aurora if they are girls. I'm thinking twice about Aurora though because it is so dang hard to pronounce!
@stark01938209 - Laney is adorable and added to my list!
@sastahlman - Ridley is great, and would probably make my Alien-loving husband happy!
Poppy Rae is in the lead if we have a girl (team green!), but my list includes:
Ranger
Auriel
Ellis
Bohem
Beach
Yuna
Odette (great mn)
Merle
Lennon
Hadley
We're having a Poppy! If babe turns out to be a girl anyways (don't find out until the 31st). Poppy Abigail. Poppy as a reference to The Wizard of Oz, my favorite story since I was a little girl. Abigail is after my sister.
The only name we both agree on is Emma. I love this name but I know 3 Emma's born in the last year (one was a variation, Emmalyn). I really want her to have a name that isn't so popular, but I love the sound of Emma.
For a MN I like Elizabeth (my MN).
My stepdaughter has my husband's initials (Brandon Michael and Brianna Michelle) so I feel like this baby should have his as well, or mine so she won't be left out...any suggestions? My initials are ME...
Elizabeth is even more popular than Emma, especially as a middle name. (Only saying this because you mentioned popularity as a downfall) I'm a fan of unique names. Just a few ideas, you may hate them all.

I had the same thought about Aurora but it is a cool name!
Mary Katherine .... Very original I know.
We would name her after her grandmother that died right after she was conceived but before transfer. The night she died I had a dream and I told her I was pregnant and she was so happy. She was sitting up in the bed discussing it with me. She had Alzheimer's and end stage lung cancer, so she really wasn't in her right mind before she died.
Very sweet. My grandmother's name is also Mary Katherine and I am using her middle name if we have a girl
@xxstephh That's my name but mine is spelled Secilia :-) Great choice!!
I just found out on Friday I'm having a GIRL!!! I'm so excited, when I was pregnant with my son I chose a boy and a girl's name. I named my son Jelani Alexander who is now 8 and for my Baby Girl who will be here 4/5/2015 will be named Jaciana Elise. I just love that name.
I'm thinking either Timber or Piper for a girl name. All of you ladies have such wonderful names picked out! I especially love @branders74's name, River. I'm considering that one as well.
I am really liking the name Vivian right now- middle name will be Elizabeth. DD#1 is Layla Ruth. Others on our list include:
Nora
Mya Beatrice Josephine Cordelia
I like older and not so common names. I also have this thing with names that can't be shortened into nicknames, but so far this time around most of the names I like are all nickname-able.
