Anyone thinking names yet?

So, I'll be honest, I've been thinking of names ever since we started ttc, which was over a year ago.  Anyone else thinking of names already?  
Here's what we have so far:

For a Boy:  Aiden David (we both want irish names, and David was DH's brothers name who died about 8 years ago)

For a girl:  Kayleigh Patricia (or Ceili, which is the gaelic spelling).  Patricia is my mother's middle name, which she goes by, and I just found out yesterday when I asked DH about Patricia, that my MIL's birth name (she was adopted at a few months old) was Patricia as well!

Any thoughts?

Well it's a tradition to name the first son James but then call him by his middle name so it will be James Ethan Gray second son would be Brice Carter Gray ( Brice was a close friend of DH that passed away when they where teenagers)

Girl names- Emma Kelly Gray ( Kelly is my sister who am very close with)
second Ella Kylie Gray

We've been thinking of names since we found out I was pregnant.

For a girl- Lily Sophia...My bf's gram's (who raised him since he was 2 months old & is now very sick) name is Elizabeth but she has always been called Lily/Lil..& I always liked the name Lily anyways.

For a boy-We have NO idea. haha We can't think of anything we like yet. Good thing we have 7 more months :)

We are going with Naming our baby after our son that passed away and my FIL that passed away 3 yrs ago very suddenly.

For a boy its Ricky Nathaniel (Ricky was FIL's name and Nathan was our son)

For a girl its Natalee Kendal ( Natalee bc it has the same meaning as Nathan and is also known as a female version of Nathan, and Kendal because it was FIL's middle name)  =)

Please no "stealing" lol and no negative comments, thanks!

I am totally thinking names...have been since we got preg last time and MC'd.

Girl - Olivia Jude (Jude after my mom who died a few years ago and she was Judy - just so happend MIL is Judy also)

Boy - I am stuck on Nathan Cullen - (Cullen is my Grandmothers Maiden name - she died a week after our wedding and always wanted a grandson :)

I really like bringing past fam members names into the babies names. I think it is very personalized.
