Anyone have baby name ideas already? My husband has names he likes but they're not going to get approved by me. He wants Xavier for a boy, which I may be able to get behind, but his girl name isn't gonna happen. He wants Genesis for a girl after the Sega Genesis. No way that one's happening! I'm clueless on names for now - good thing we have a while!
Haven't thought too much about it yet..but DH is from France, so we want names that can be pronounced in both languages! French baby names are adorable though so I don't think we'll have too much trouble
@erindippity I was thinking of using the name Killian too if we're having a boy! But I don't think it goes well with our other sons names.
H has a son from another relationship named Sayden. We have Sylas, so if we end up with a gril we were thinking Saylor to keep the "s" "y" thing going.. it could go a totally different direction though..it's still early.
October 2017 May siggy challenge - Parenting fails
DS is Henry James after both of his grandpas. If this is a girl, she will be Eliza Kate. My Granny's name was Elizabeth and it's also my middle name. DH'S great grandma was Kate. If we have another boy, I have no idea what we'll name him.
I don't think we'll really discuss names until we know the sex of the baby. It's doubtful we'll have one picked out and nailed down before the birth. Maybe there will be a list of favorites, but I think I'd want to meet the baby first before deciding on a name.
We have casually talked about it in the past though, so both of us have an idea of the types of names we like.

Clearly we like to rush along at lightning speed...
I love talking baby names! I have two girls - one with my mother's name as mn and one with MIL's name as middle name. My nephew is named after my father so that leaves us with honoring my FIL for this baby. His is from Italy and is named Claudio. His mother was Cornelia, but called "Nellie". I like Cornelia, but have a harder time with Claudio (as first or middle). I can't wait to find out the gender and begin the real debate!
Too early. I have to get a feel of my child first. Our favorite thing with DD was that we didn't share the name we picked. We loved surprising everyone.
We have had names for both genders picked for awhile. We are also planning on being surprised for the gender at birth we like Lucas William for a boy and Frances Madeline for a girl (we'd call her Frankie, after my Dad)
DH wants to name a boy the third of his name, as DH is the second Richard Dale. However EDD is right around DH's bday, so I'm concerned about identity issues for a possible son.
We are team green again. We will use the same girls name we had picked out the first time... Hailey Rose. Our son is Landon William. We don't have a boys name picked out yet for this one. I love Dylan or Connor, but we won't finalize a boys name until later on.
DH & I have had a "top 3 list" for both genders since we started trying! I feel like I need one, first know boy/girl which we'll be finding out before the birth and then see which name feels like the right fit DH really thinks it's a girl for some reason! Girl - Rose, Whitney or Sophie & Boy - Parker, Wyatt or Blake

and we don't agree on any boy names. We didn't agree on Nolan either lol we changed is name three days after he was born. We could have 15 daughters and agree on all their names but boy names throw us for a loop!
I have a lot of names that I love but probably won't use. I love classic Anglicized Irish names but so does everyone else and their mother in my circle...
Rowan, Eleanor, Nora, Owen, Finnegan, Liam
Maybe one of those could be worked into a middle name?
The first day May 2007 The yes day April 2012 The best day Nov 2013
We already have a Ansleigh Brianne and Avery Grace. I'd like to keep the "A" going. But hubby gets to pick the boy name if it's a boy this time. We have agreed on these.... Girl: Adeline Rose or Alice Kate Boy: Anderson James ( AJ) or Bennett David
For a boy, we are set on Steven Paul. It's the reversal of my late FIL's name and means a lot to us. For a girl, I'm 90% sure we'll go with Natalie. Natalie Agnes (in honor of my late grandmother) or Natalie Maureen for my mom.
still undecided if we will tell others our choices
We had a girl name picked out three days after we found out that I'm pregnant. A girl would be Emma Grace. For a boy, we're thinking Owen or Emmett. Emmett Scott or Owen Scott probably so my husband & son would share a middle name.
Huge Cubs fan over here, and I have always wanted to name a girl Addison Clark as Wrigley Field sits at the corner of the two streets. DS is Judah Alexander and I let DH pick that so it's kinda my choice if this one is a girl right?? Lol
or something Rae for my gma.
secretly hoping for another boy tho. Already have all the stuff and they will be literally exactly 2 years apart so all the clothes sizes will match for each season which would make a boy SO much easier!
I have: Callahan Clark, Tallulah Reece, and Magnolia Mae. Our current boy/girl front runners are either Atticus Roscoe or Sullivan Roscoe for a boy, and Clementine Rue for a girl. All have a family name incorporated somehow. We march to the beat of our own weird little drum, obviously.

We were team green last time so we picked out a boy and girl name and we'll probably keep the girl name for this time. Our son's name is Wyatt John-Philip.
The girl name we are going with is Emersyn Harper. We haven't talked about a new boy name yet.
I feel your pain. Our second son's name is Logan and he has always called him Weapon X i.e. Hugh Jackman = Logan aka Weapon X from X-men. Then he told me if we have a third boy he likes the name Parker i.e. Peter Parker = Spiderman. No way in hell is it happening.
We are pretty set on Margaret Theresa (both grandmothers) for a girl and John Anthony (both fathers who have passed) for a boy.. very traditional I know..
we usually don't even discuss names until the 9th month and even then the Birth Certificate registrar lady is harassing us in the hospital to pick out a name before we get discharged. lol

Re: Baby names!
I like Rowan for a boy and Briann(a) for a girl. I can't decide phonetically: bre-ah-nuh or bre-an-uh or bre-ann.
DH won't play the name game until we know if it's a boy or girl.
Edit: half my post disappeared.
My current likes are Ethan for a boy and Abigail for a girl.
For a girl: Norah Grace
Names have been picked out for over a year....both have meanings for us.
@Nxy I am partial to Brianna (Bre ah nuh) because that is DD2's name.
