Just for fun! And a little GTKY I keep reading baby names in posts and I realize a lot of us have decided on a name! If you are willing, please share your baby's name.
We are torn between Alexander James, Dylan Thomas, and Max Jacob. We switch off every day calling him different names, just to see what sounds natural and "right". So far we're still stuck. Today he was Dylan, btw
Bodhi is definitely his first name, but we're torn between Arturo (DH's deceased father's name), Arthur (my grandfather's name), or just Art (the name they both went by) for a middle name.
DH likes Art because it includes both men, I dislike it because screaming "Bodhi Art" at him when he is being a turd doesn't flow as nicely as Bodhi Arturo or Bodhi Arthur. I'm leaning toward Bodhi Arturo because, as someone named after both my grandmothers, I like the idea of honoring the grandfather he'll never know. If he's delivered on my scheduled c-section date, he'll already share a birthday with my dad .
I'm set on Lauren Darlene but DH prefers Carly Darlene, he says in the end he will be happy with whatever name we choose...I'm already calling her Lauren when I talk to her though lol
Olivia Bliss, Bliss was my grandma's middle name; and Sophia Lynn, Lynn is MIL's name.
I keep worrying they'll come out though, and won't "look" like those names lol. I have a friend who had a baby Sunday, and named her something completely different than planned because she didn't "look" like that name lol.
Love this thread! Almost certain our daughter will be Mary Margaret, but we are keeping the name a secret until the moment the ink is dry on the birth certificate so that no family members can give their un-asked-for opinion
I wish my DH and I could decide on a name. Even though we are Team Green, I feel like I need to figure out a name for this LO, but we just can't. It doesn't help that my DH throws out BIZARRE names like Constitution (sorry I don't mean to offend anyone who might like the name).
So we continue to bat stuff back and forth- mine being a little more mainstream than Constitution. Love everyone's name choices!
I love seeing everyone's name picks. We are also keeping the name a secret until after LO is born, as we don't care to hear anyone's opinions. I also can't be sure of her name until I meet her.
That being said, we're thinking Olivia Joyce or Natalie Joyce. Joyce was DH's late mother's name.
His first name is Kai and I've painted the letters, so that's not changing! We haven't 100% decided on a middle name yet but it will most likely be Mathias.
Evelyn Quinn. Its not exactly a secret, but I make people guess given the initials (EQD). Its a fun game :-) I'll call her Evie unless she is in trouble.
@phoebecar we are in the same boat. So far my dhs contribution has been "what about Gracie?" at 11 pm when I was half alseep. We are notorious about not being able to decide before we see the baby and then it's like we both agree and it all makes sense. So, I'll just go with that I guess! But, lovely names everyone!

But, lovely names everyone!
Due December 27th with baby #7
I love the name Evelyn! It's our daughter's name and she has such an amazing personality
I love seeing all of the names we are bringing into the world
Dd1 is Kaelyn and we call her Kae, KK, and Kaelyn and she responds to all so we will probably go back and forth with Evie and Evelyn for dd2.
