The Official Name Thread

Can we please start talking baby names!? Let's be honest, the Baby Name board is a total waste but great for a good laugh.
Let's hear it all! What are your name ideas of your O17 baby(ies)?

Our girl name is up in the air a bit. DD1 is Madeline (Maddie) Sherry. On our short list is Winifred (Winnie) Molly, Molly Wren and maybe Molly Winifred.
We find out in about 2 weeks which type of name we'll need!

I have a Madeline, so I'm partial to that one! I also really love Paige!

Girl: Nora Hope. I love this name, but Nora is a little too popular for me so Victoria/Tori is on the table but i don't love it as i love Nora.
DD1 - Leah Grace DD2 - Cara Faith

Sabastion made it to my list of potential boy names because I like the nn Bash.
Sort of a FFFC, but I think boy names are so bland and generic compared to all the cute girl names out there. I'm having such a problem finding anything I like.

Honestly I wouldn't worry too incredibly much about a name's popularity if that's the one you love. I decided on my now two-year-old son's name more than a decade ago and had a minor third trimester freakout because his name is so popular now, haha. I'm immensely glad we named him Eli anyway and it fits him perfectly. Just my two cents! Tori is an adorable choice too
That said, we have no true ideas. He brought up Thierry ( Tee-Air-Ee) which he heard on one of his car shows. I don't like it as a first name but maybe a middle name. Problem is , I went to school with a girl with the last name Thierry (Theory) so it kind of turns me off a bit.
Short answer , nope. Not yet. And totally jealous of those who have set names!

Boy: definitely not sure. I love Dawson Jacob (but do not want nn DJ!!), DH isnt in love. He's only mentioned Ezra. I love so many names that end in -er (Thatcher, Asher, Tucker), but our last name also ends in -er so they don't sound right lol. Only name DH has mentioned is Ezra. I don't love it or hate it.
DS1: Hayes Charleston
For a girl, we like: June, Maren, or Reese. There's also a possibility of Elizabeth. My favorite is June, but H isn't sold.
For a boy, we like: Noel (though I hesitate b/c we'll be correcting pronunciation for his entire life, I'm sure), maybe Amos, maybe Otto, maybe Cash, maybe none of these - ha!

I've had my girls name picked out since I was 16- Elena Catherine. My grandma's first name + my middle name is Elaine, and my mother's name is Cathy. Family love.
For a boy, I think DH and I have agreed on Liam Ryan. DH is part Irish and we like the idea of an Irish name. It's popular but we will deal. Ryan is DH's name and his family has a tradition of giving the boys the father's name as a middle name.
All that being said, me, DH and DD are all J names. Yeah yeah, I know I know. It's a little corny but we've talked about doing this since we were dating. Trust me, I've heard all the dugger references. Keep your comments to yourself lol and at this point it would be a little weird to pick a different letter for this kid (but my weird sense of humor also would find it a little funny). But we won't go there. So my top 3 are:
Girl
Joelle
Josephine (or just Josie) - this was our other option for DD but I just don't seem to like it as much now. We will see.
Jocelyn - I love it but DH vetoed it the first time around. I'm still going to push for it if this is a girl.
Boy
Jacob
Jameson
Jasper
(we have had said Jaden on our list since like 2008 but I don't think I can do it now)
