Baby Name Help

**Sara Noel** · 06-15-2002, 11:31 PM

I know we did a babyname abc thread, but I am still looking for babynames. Please list your favorites. I stare at hundreds of names and nothing is jumping at me yet.

Oh my gosh! There are so many wonderful names that it is hard to know where to start! I think if I had it all to do over again, I would name my daughter a family name. One of my great great...grandmother's names was Jane Faith. I like that so much. Do you have any family names that you like?

I love the eastern European names-Anastasia, Tatiana, Jozefa, Jozef, I also like the more English sounding-Jane, Elizabeth, Sarah, Julia, Julian, Zachary, Justin, then there is the biblical, Caleb, Joab, Eve........

I'm with you on this Sara! Every name my dh mentions, I HATE!!!! If this is a boy, he wants Harold. ICK!!!! For a girl, he likes Amanda Lynn. Well, that's all good and fine, but he says it like A Mandolin. No F'n way! LOL!!!

That's why I'm waiting until my ultrasound (this Fri) before we start going back and forth with names. No sense arguing over Harold if it's a girl, LOL!

But for girls names I do like Amanda, Emily, Hannah, Ashley

Right now, the only boy's names I've heard that I like (haven't run it past dh since I want to wait to find out what it will be first) is Liam.

Such tough decisions!! Let us know when you guys decide!!

Our names we chose are for a boy: Jason James- girl: Jessica Marie and our 2 yr old DD is Jennifer Morgan! I think Morgan would be a beautiful first name too!!

**CountryMom** · 06-19-2002, 05:44 PM

For a girl I like...
Emily
Emma
Sarah (probably not an option for you lol)
Gabrielle
Kaitlyn
Claire
Whitney
Grace
Natalie
Isabella
Morgan

For a boy I like...
Noah
Jackson
Paul (for a middle name)
Harrison
Chasen (rhymes with Jason)

**CAGmomof2** · 06-19-2002, 06:07 PM

Jordan for a Boy and Halie for a girl!!

This was so hard when DD3 was on the way. I let older DD's help in the process, and when we found out it was a girl, the fighting began. I like Hayley, Alayna, Emily, and we named DD3 Courtney because we all agreed that we liked it. Boys names: William, Zachary. No more babies for us, so I never got to name a boy. I absolutely love my girls, so I was not disappointed. (I can't believe some people are like that). We are thankful to have 3 beautiful healthy girls.

there are so many good names out there....

one of my favorite boys names is Jake (my Gunnar would have been Jake but my hubby Loved the name Gunnar and the triplets were going to be our last babies so I let him name the boy Gunnar and I have grown to love the name but still like Jake)
Other boys names...
Jack, William, Michael, David, Evan, Ian, Liam, Caleb, Nicholas

Girls wells lets see my Rebecca would have been names Cassidy if I had my way (my maiden name)
other names I wanted, Faith & Hope (I was trying to get pregnant a LONG time)
Kaitlyn, Amanda, Julia, Anna, Hannah..

A cool thing to do is to combine yours and your hubbys names (I don't know if that is possible for you but :~)
Is there someone in your family you want to name a child after that is another thought, all 4 of our kids have middles names after a grandparent (not always the best sounding together BUT)..

Good luck and have fun.......
