I have no. clue. And we won't be finding out the sex which makes things trickier. DS is Theodore (nn Teddy) and I feel like I'll never top that because it fits him so perfectly. All of our kids will have two middle names because DH and I have different last names, so we use mine as a mn.
We have a Theodore! He goes by Theo. I feel the same way as you. I feel like we found THE perfect name; how can we possibly top that?
It's the best! Strong, classic, and adorable. It was literally the ONLY name DH and I agreed on and we both fell in love with it.
We had names picked out since our last pregnancy that ended up in a MC. I wasn't sure if I still wanted to use them but we have decided to go with them as they are meaningful.
For a boy Hunter James and for a girl Olivia Kathryn.
We have always had a long list of possible boy names: Byron Beau (DH's favorite) Wyatt Vaughn Crosby (my favorite) And have NEVER been able to agree on a girl's name. But now that we're actually pregnant, we can't agree on a boy's name, but have our girl's name locked in: Wren Marie

Beau and Crosby are the only 2 boy names my husband and I agree on. I was surprised when I saw Beau, then you said Crosby too! Probably go with Crosby even though I have loved Beau since I was little... But hubby prefers Crosby. Maybe use Beau for a girl? Who knows
I suck at girl names... Was thinking Quinn, but suddenly now I only like very girlie names... Rosie, Daisy, Mae... Maybe Sunny.
We aren't finding out the sex, so probably won't decide until the end.
Foster for a boy (it's a family name) Hadley for a girl. We haven't completely decided on middle names. It's tough because we both have several family names that we would like to use, but keeping it fair to both families is proving difficult!
Girl- Margaret Kathleen (Maggie) Boy- Everett Gano Margaret is after my maternal grandmother, and I had to keep passing on Kathleen as I am the 3rd generation with that name. Everett is my fil middle name, Gano is my Hubby's grandpa's name...there was no getting around that one.
My hubby and I find it harder to choose boys names than girls. We already have a son called Flynn, we think we will choose Kade if we have another boy or possibly Kasey (Kase). If it's a girl we are thinking Alyssa, Eva or Jada. My preference is Alyssa at this stage. Lucky we will be finding out the sex and this will help narrow it down.
We both agree on Audrey, but DH and I cannot agree on a boys name.
I *thought* we had agreed on Wade Werner W. (Werner is a family name and I'm all for that), but he recently nixed it. I used to like Jacob Ivan (another family name) but all I think about is the Jakes I knew in high school and college who smoked a lot of pot.
We were pretty set on Charlotte Grace for a girl, but I have a feeling that Charlotte is going to sky rocket in popularity now. So now we are looking at Anniston Grace and Emerson Grace as well.
My husband won't even discuss names until we find out if it's a boy or a girl. Our first is a girl so we've only ever discussed girls names. With our first we went to the hospital with 5 names!! We always knew her middle name would be Joanne, it is my middle name and my moms middle name.
Our first is Norah Joanne, a close second name for her was Holly, so I think if this one is a girl it will be Holly. Middle name may be Carole? It's my MIL middle name and my moms 1st name. We may actually do Holland and call her Holly.
Some of my top boys names are: Colton, Griffin, Luca, Milo and Russel.
These are all such great names. I love that half are classic and half are new! We kind of have it easy as my husband is Patrick Joseph III, so if it's a boy, PJ IV! If it's a girl we both like Casey Roland (Roland is a family name). We clearly like Irish names
I already have 4 kids and 3 are boys...boys names are hard for me and DH to agree on. This time he says he doesn't care what I say if it's a boy he wants Caleb...if it is a girl it will be Caylee Rose...
Boy is easy for us. We'll probably go with Julian Michael (first name after my husband and middle name after my dad). For a girl it's a bit more tough. We really like Gianna Isabella (husband is Italian so it goes well with our last name), but we also like the names Avery, Lina and Sofia. It might be a little harder to agree on something if it's a girl.
What, @daninikicoli?!? I've only ever met one Beau in my life, and I've never met a Crosby. They're such uncommon names...what are the odds we'd have BOTH on our lists?? PS...you have good taste in names!!
We already have kolby, Hannah, and Quinnlyn Grace. Boy: either Carson Jonathan or Miles Jonathan Carson is dh grandma's maiden name. Jonathan is my brother who passed suddenly 8 weeks after Q was born.
Girl: unsure.....we like Elizabeth, Alivia, Cecilia
@socal_whitney I know right! Great minds! I've never met anyone with either name. Crosby I stole from the show Parenthood. Would I be cooler though if I said it was for David Crosby? Maybe dorkier if possible. Lol We will have to keep each other posted on the names we pick!
We've settled on Judah Gavin for a boy (Gavin being the only other boy in his extended family so it's sweet), but haven't really decided on a girl's name yet. We like Sophia and Aria but haven't made a final decision yet!
My hubs is pretty useless in this category until we know what we're having. He was last time too. A few we're considering are Girl: Quinn, Lorelei (both middle Maxine) Boy: Cohen, Austin, 9768996 others

Madeline is my Great Aunt and Sherry is my mom.
Will probably use my maiden name as a middle for either.
I *thought* we had agreed on Wade Werner W. (Werner is a family name and I'm all for that), but he recently nixed it. I used to like Jacob Ivan (another family name) but all I think about is the Jakes I knew in high school and college who smoked a lot of pot.
For a boy its Owen Daniel
For a boy, right now we like Patrick James. We also like Oliver and Hunter. We want to keep the middle name James.
Our first is Norah Joanne, a close second name for her was Holly, so I think if this one is a girl it will be Holly. Middle name may be Carole? It's my MIL middle name and my moms 1st name. We may actually do Holland and call her Holly.

So many cute names!

It might be a little harder to agree on something if it's a girl.
