@grebretso@BourbonBiscuits It was actually the complete opposite for me this pregnancy and last. With DD, we had a girl name set but could not settle on a boy name. This time, we had a boy name set (Hudson James) and couldn't settle on a girl name, and this one is a boy. So who knows!
+1 on this baby not having a name ever haha. My husbands name is really common too...Joseph and Add his extremely common (for NYC anyway) last name it’s like there’s got to be thousands of them hahaha
he wants an uncommon name and his favorite is Julian. At first I hated it but maybe it’s growing on me? Thoughts on Julian for a boy? Our other son is Luca. Not that they have to be like matchy matchy but just as an FYI haha
@BourbonBiscuits you could have described mine and DH's names just now! I didn't like my name growing up, though not BECAUSE it was uncommon for my generation, I just didn't think it was pretty. But I like it ok now. I'll be damned if I let my kid have a name everyone else his or her age also has. I'd rather take Gertrude or Ethel tyvm
I love Julian! That would actually have been DD's name were she a boy. I'm rethinking it this time though, partly because it's super close to my sister's name, partly because picky AF
I just found out I'm having a BOY!!!!! So now I'm getting more serious about baby names. My dad is like the 3rd generation with Raymond as either first or middle...so I'd like to continue that (if DH is ok with it, which we haven't really discussed yet)
Names I've sortof liked are: Levi (but I think I dont want an L name since that's DD) Grant (but it rhymes with our last name too much) Soren (but is that too unusual?) Reese (which is great because it's a family name on DH's side, but I'm not sure it goes with Raymond) Silas (just thought to add this one to the list today, yay!)
I think my DH and I might have settled on baby names, which is lovely, but I have a More Important Question: y'all what should I name my pregnancy pillow? Because I am seriously in love with this pillow, and I think it should be honored with a moniker. Male names only please, because this pillow is the only man I need.
I haven't whipped my pillow out for this pregnancy yet, but last time I deemed it "The Chaperone" since my H wasn't able to get anywhere near me when I used it. No boner in the back with The Chaperone on the case.

Our current list is still pretty long. We just started discussing names two nights ago. We are having a boy.
