Just curious how many people are sure of names this early in the game...DH and I could barely agree on names with our first (we finally settled on Lucas) and this time around is proving to be 10x more difficult. I just don't like anything and the few names I do like, DH hates.
What are your names or what names are on your no list? DH and I both like Blakeley for a girl, but I'm still not 100% sold on it. I really like Cole for a boy, but DH has his reservations about it.
Re: Baby Names
Me (33). DH (37). DD (2.2012). MCs x4. After 4 years & 7 months, due 4.2018!
@Mattel Reese is a cute name!
We haven't talked names yet, the girl name was just our thought last time. So I haven't thought about boy yet.

@Apthor02 Duncan is my maiden name!
Our kid is likely to be a boy since there is oodles of boys in my DH's family history. When I was pregnant last time, I really fell in love with Grayson, but at that time everyone was naming their kid Grayson. I was almost relieved to have a girl and duck the dilemma.

As for a boy? Ugh, so much harder. The only name we can somewhat agree on is Conor Joseph, but I don't loooove it. I like it more than everything else we've talked about, but that's not saying much.
Our other kids are named Owen Michael and Anna Charlotte. I'm not sure why I'm so obsessed with coming up with a third name that flows well with the other two, but I am.
For girls I get a little more leeway I've had Eloise (Ellie) Violet picked out for about 7 years. The other contenders are Dorothy (Dottie, DHs grandmothers name), Marielle, and Amelia (Millie) but our bffs just named their newborn Mila so I think that might be a little too similar.
It'll probably be a game-time decision either way. Loving reading about everyone's ideas!!

Girl will be Skylar Elizabeth, Elizabeth is a family name and coincidentally my best friend's name.
Our other kids are Peyton Taylor and Logan Gene. Both middle names are family names.
We've always discussed names during TTC like crazy people. So names are pretty set.
Boys, we're low on names because it took us a while to determine DS's name. We have some ideas but nothing concrete.
We won't name baby until it's here, but we have two girl front runners: Penelope and Emilia.
Boys, we have nothing.
DD is Isabelle Therese. Our LN is one syllable with a hard K, so we (more me) have a very hard time finding names that go with it. I have super neurotic criteria: must have a NN, more than one syllable, and be a name that I can look up the etemology on.
If it's a boy, it will probably be Kent Aaron. If it's a girl, Kassie Rose. DS is Kade Scott.

I feel strongly that this baby will be a girl and I want to name her Cassella Grace, after both my grandmother's. Cassella is my grandmother's maiden name. I chose her last name because her first name is Maria, which is also my sisters name, and I'm just not fond of that name and Grace is my other grandmother's first name. DH just doesn't "like" it, but I think it's because I wouldnt let him name our son Joseph after his grandfather because I don't like the more common names.
