Those are great names. Wilson is nice because it is different but not weird. I really like Max also. We know we are having a boy. YAY!! Right now my favorite name is Jacob Nolan. We keep a dry erase board up.. We add and erase names as we go along. We also have Elliot (Eli), Jack and Carson on the board. When we were considering girl names, Miranda was at the top of the list. My sister named her daughter Camille, and I really love that name also.
Good luck with everything!!
I agree, those names are really great. I am 11 weeks today YAY!!! If we have a girl we are naming her Zaria Rayne and if we have a boy his name will be Brayden Levi. I have had those names picked out since I had my tubal reversal in March! I look forward to meeting whomever decides to join our family!
Congrats and Good Luck!
Patty
Hannah - I love the name Jacob and Nolan. If my daughter had been a boy, she would've been a Nolan instead of a Becca. You guys have some really cool names picked out. Me - i got nothing!
Those are great names! I like the name Nolan, too, and Zaria is very original.
When we were naming Max, we also thought about Quinn, Gabe and Calvin. We thought we were being original with Max, but there are two other boys in his daycare named Max!
(BTW, I lied and said I was 35...I guess I'm 36. Oops.)
patty - Zaria is a beautiful name! Actually I've never heard it before but I love it (don't worry i won't 'steal' it - lol). how are ya doing?
I am doing okay, I could be doing a whole lot better without this MS. I had never heard the name either and then when I was thinking of names I told my DH that I wanted something you don't hear every day. So I come up with Zaria! You can steal it, I don't mind!! And how are you doing??
I'm not a regular...just dropping in. Saw this and wanted to share two names of boys who I adore, and whose names are different, but classic, and...well...just nice. Their names are Gregor and Donnon. Not names you'll hear on every corner, but solid, like the kids.
Good luck to you all!!!!
Girl, if it's not one thing, it's another! It's the constipation or the gagging, take your pick! I've kept up on your nausea (sounds weird, huh - lol) & you're almost in your 2nd trimester! It's suppose to ease up (well mine did except for the gagging thing). I bet yours will too!! You have any feelings about what you're having? - jen (14w5d)
Yanno, I don't have a clue what we are having. I keep wanting to say *her* but I'm not sure if it's because that's a feeling I have or just because my DH and daughter want a girl so bad that they just refer to the baby as a her. I can't wait until this trimester is OVER! I so want to feel normal again! I never have had the gagging thing, I sure hope it doesn't start any time soon.
Patty...how do you pronounce your name? (zu rye u) I LOVE IT :O) I love different names and we have SARAYA ELIZABETH picked for our lil girl...I have had the name since i heard the 1 hit wonder band when i was in highschool... hope you are feeling better soon

Thanks!
Zar-EE-ia, I just sort of came up with it one day. Told my DH and he loved it. I love the name Saraya Elizabeth also.
i love all the unique names everyone has picked! we are naming our little girl Addison Grace. my son is Caleb, love the name Max!!!
Our name, weather its a boy or a girl: Frankie Rain
I have an 11 year old who is keeping my maiden name (i was married recently and he doesn't want to change his name, and I kept my maiden name as well) Rain is my 11 yr. olds middle name, so we are giving it to this baby too, so they will share the same middle name since they won't have the same last name.
ps, we've been calling it, 'The Frankie Baby'
pcarsey - didn't know you had MS, my mom does too. has had it for 15 years.
now i have to go research ms and pregnancy because i'm caring about you. :)
40smama....just say the word and we will all start throwing around names for ya...good luck

MS is morning sickness. I couldn't hand;e having "MS" and being pregnant. Although my sister-in-law had two babies with it!
But thanks anyways!! :)
Patty
oh, good. :)
are you still having morning sickness as bad as you were? mine totally went away, but the past 2 days, i've had it (very mild - not nearly as bad) every now and then.
well, we are really suckin on the hind tit - good grief - we can't agree on a name and don't seem to be able to find the time to sit down and discuss names - hubby ONLY wants to use Hayley because of Hayley Mills - LOVES the name - I'm not that fond of it - working in preschool, there are more Hayley's then Kellogg's Cornflakes - I love Kathryn - it was my grandmother's name and I have always wanted to use it - and call her either Kate or Katy - (grandmother went by Katy) Hubby doesn't like Kathryn because of someone he used to work with - so for now, her name is Fred - I told hubby I was going to get her a little bowling shirt and have Fred embroidered on it - lol
Jenn - I didn't know your daughter was named Becca - that's what all the kids at school call me cause they can't say - REbecka - although I do have one little boy who is convinced my name is Mister Vecka - I love kids and the way they talk - lol
I'm 44 and have recently been trying to get over 2 miscarriages. It's nice to think of the positive -- hopeful side of things. DH and I were trying to think of names with the last pregnancy, before the miscarriage. It was nice while it lasted... Anyway, we are thinking of these;
Boy -- Julian Ray, both our birth father's middle names
Girl -- Anya LaVonne , my Grandmother's first name, his Mom's middle name
Interestingly, we have a family name on his side from the mid 1800's that is close to Patty's Zaria -- it's Azariah, a boy's name. I think it's pronounced az-uh-REE-uh, but I would say it ay-ZAR-ee-uh
Hi, i'm 41 and 7 weeks preg tomorrow with twins. We've tried for 10 yrs to get preg so i've had my names for awhile.hahah
if it's boy/boy Jensen Charles (after my gpa) and Cooper Edward (after hubby)
if it's girl/girl Ellison Elizabeth and Emmeline Katherine (they'd be called Elly and Emmy)
if it's girl/boy it will either be Brinson (my gma's maiden name) ELizabeth and call her Brinny and Cooper OR Ellison and Jensen (Brinson and Jensen sounds retarded HA!)
Best of luck to you!!!!
Thanks so much for sharing! This has been a nice distraction!
Syre - Where did you come up with "Ellison"? I was thinking about Millison for a girl at one point, calling her "Milli". I still like that one.
AZ Angie - I am keeping you in my thoughts. Hang in there.
My DH and I have a hard time agreeing on names, so who knows what it will end up being?!
Jeannette
so many people are naming this..... but then will call baby that.....
why not just name it the shorter 'nick name'?
think about school and attendance, and how people will refer to the kid by a 'full' name instead of what you've been calling it.
not saying what you are doing is wrong by any means... i'm just wondering what the reasoning is behind it.
My son's name is David Andrew and everyone (including everyone at school) call him Andrew. They ask you what your child refers to being called, and go by whatever you tell them. Most schools are respectful in that way.
Heya, Well I'm not really sure where I saw Ellison. If you look it up in the baby name books it always comes up under boy names...go figure lol. I may have read it in a book plus my step dad's name is Elliot so it kinda fit. :)
