Well since my big news today- we have to pick out some more names, just in case we get two of the same sex. Any ideas what goes with Mollie and Grayson?
@jlgriff11 Holly and Jason? (I love the name Jason btw...just sayin)
No name ideas here whatsoever. We have three boys ready named James Mathieu (goes by Mathieu), Everett William, and Charles Gregory. If we have another boy we might be in trouble. We really don't want to use any of the same initials so any name that starts with a J, M, E, W, C, or G is out.

I recently let DH hack up my list and this is what's left. Girl mn will be Ruth, boy mn will be Daniel.
Girls:
Raina/Reina
Caroline
Willow
Lucy
Cordelia
Alice
Isla
Boys:
Abel
Gibson
Atticus
Linus
Mercer
Booker
Marshall
Theodore
We've 90% decided that if it is a boy, the name will be Alexander James. Other boy names we considered were Nicholas, Rowan, and Bradley.
If its a girl, we're still undecided. We have a short list but it could be added to or taken away at any time:
Emily
Janessa
Christina
Alexandra/Alexandria
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the name Cora but husband said no he's a fan of long names that can have many nicknames whereas I gravitate towards short names like Cora, Thea, and Willa

I know it's early, but dh and I picked out names the week after bfp! Ella Ford for a girl (always loved Ella and Ford was my granddaddy's name...I had always said for a boy, but we loved it paired with Ella!) and Harrison Clay for a boy (Clay is his dad's name and his grandparent's last name is Harris). It's so exciting!
We decided on my daughter's name without any runner ups - Madelyn Christine - at 8 weeks and never veered from it. We kept our boy name from her and added some during my loss in September.
Bennett
Luke
Jake
middle name will probably be Andrew or Douglas (family names)
I felt that baby (from my loss) was a girl and for some reason said I did not want to discuss girl names until I knew the gender. I think it was God's way of shielding me from more pain of having picked a name for a baby that would never make it to earth. This time I am definitely having a short list or even better picking a name. We haven't looked yet, but am really excited to start searching!
@jlgiff11 I thought about that too! I remember the name from the movie Titanic when Leo dances with the little girl in the third class section. I've always loved that name. I watch Once Upon a Time and was sad when Cora was evil!

Cora is my number 1 pick too but DH vetoed it with DD so probably will again this time. Both our kids were nameless till after they were born but this time we actually agree on a boy name. So it will probably be a girl. Our boy name Pendleton James
So DH and I talked boys names yesterday...the short list now includes: Riker Luc Patton And potentially any combination of two of them for first & middle names.
I'm surprised to see some Everetts here. That is our choice of name for a boy; Everette Grey. For a girl I think we have decided on Hazel Rose. I think I have a problem with colors
My husband and I had a long conversation about names a few years ago (right after we got married). We came up with names and I even wrote them down and told my mother about the conversation later. However, when I brought it up shortly after our first BFP, he didn't even remember the conversation, LOL! Sooo we sort of decided but now I tossed out those names and we are back to the drawing board. We are a little superstitious after two losses so no name discussions yet but I am making a list of names I like on nameberry.com!
Love all these names ladies! DH and I have had a boy and a girl name picked out for a few months. In our minds the names are locked down but who knows what will happen when we meet our babe.
Me and my SO are having a hard time agreeing he either likes really plain names or names that are way far out. My favorite boy names are Maverick, Sawyer, Walker, Galen, and Reid. My favorite girl names are Giuliana, Serenity, Vivienne, Evelynn, and Aria. Opinions?
@FiancB my son is Finn and our last name also starts with an F and we've never had an issue with it.
We haven't really talked about names yet but I like Milo or Theo for a boy (it took us forever to come up with Finn Charles and these have been the only boy names I've liked since then even though hubs hates Milo...he think dog treats and I think Phantom Tollbooth). For a girl I had a ton picked out when I found out last time I was having a boy so this time I'm sort of waiting to see what the baby is first before I go name crazy, but I have a feeling it will be Alice for a girl
With the first I picked the first name and he picked the middle: Daemon Nykyrian C.
This time he gets to pick the name and I get the middle.
For a girl we have picked Emmalene Gray. We love the name Emma and I picked Gray because both mine and my mothers middle name is Kay and my grandmother's is Faye. I wanted to pay hommage to that.
As for a boy, we're stuck. He likes Lacklyn and I don't. I like Axel and he's not a huge fan. We both like Riddick but I'm still not sure it's "the one". I'd like it so match well with our other son's name (Daemon).
Emily Olivia M. Olivia/Olive is a family name on my side and ever since my BFP the name Emily has been ringing in my ears. No ideas on boy names. My husband hates my late fathers name (Derryl) and does not want a Lawrence Tamez M. III in the family. I proposed Jack Daniel M. as those are my grandfather's names and would have been my name had I been a boy (Yes, I also come from a long line of Tennessee Squires and am a member myself, so I know the whiskey connotation, it's lucky happenstance). He hates the idea. I proposed Able, Sterling, and Sean, all 3 have been shot down. Our luck, we're having a boy and we won't have a name for the little guy for quite a while!
@erinfey09 as a teacher a would prenounce Kian as Key-ann or Kye-ann. This might be because I'm from Australia though. I've noticed we pronouce some names differently. Would it annoy you for it to be potenntially pronounced wrong?
@noelietrex dh loovvess bjorn after he watched Vikings. I'm not sold though, with our last name it is a bit weird.
@LittleLunarMouse you could spell it Cale- that's dh's middle name. I teach a Kale and I laugh internally every time I read it because my dad bitches about people spending all this money on Kale at the shops when he used to feed it to his cows as weeds.
We pretty much have our girl name set from the first go around, and the boy name is something I have pushed for (I think it has won?) So Jack William - the 4yr old - will either have a brother named Beau Wesley, or a sister named Lauren Feliz.
@jlgriff11 you need to pick which boy and girl name will go together! Personally I like Mollie/Grayson, Adelaide/Jaxson. I'm glad you didn't make them matchy-matchy (coming from a non-matchy twin!)

Oh my god, I know twins named Jack and Jill. No lie. They freaking hate it.
We honestly haven't talked names yet. I was well into my 3rd tri before we settled on a name for my daughter. This time around, I don't think I could seriously talk names with DH until we find out if we are having a boy or girl. I really like Lucy (which was my grandmother's name) but DH didn't like it previously because his friend's daughter is named Lucy. They haven't spoken in years and friend lives out of state, so I will probably suggest Lucy for a girl again this time around!
We are thinking Evelyn Judith (Judy was DH's grandma) and Fletcher Thomas. I am absolutely in love with the name Gwendolyn for a girl.... love the old fashioned style, but the hubs says an emphatic no!
Everyone that knows thinks it's a boy ! Even though I really want a girl lol! For a boy I like the names Leonardo (because my favorite actor) and Marcelino (my grandfathers name) but considering what the baby's last name will be, Tamayo (Tah-mai-o) , that's wayyy too many o's lol.
We picked our names after all our grandparents/great grandparents. Each name would have one name from each side too this way ex. Maxwell -my maternal grandparents last name. Harlan-husbands grandfathers first name.
Boys: Maxwell Harlan W Or Warren James W Girls: Anne Deolynn W (nickname might be Andie) Or Katherine Grace W
