Change of heart....

So I have changed my mind on the name that I was planning on naming my first son/child.
I have always said in the past that I didn't care about how many other children had the same name as mine...and blah blah blah, but today it really hit me. I didn't love the name as much as I thought I did. I will not be naming my son Kaiden.....I think the name is adorable, but between Cayden, Caden, Kaden, Aden, Aiden, jayden......etc, I'm going with Nathan. I have always loved that name....ya know when your a little girl and you play "house" and you always have that one name you use for your "kids"?? It was always Nathan, and I love the classic "old school" simplicity of it. Just thought I would share.
Anyone else have a change of heart at last minute??

My oldest brothers name is Nathaniel Joel but goes by Nathan. It is a really nice name that is not used much anymore. My other brothers name is Phillip James. My big brother and his wife are expecting a boy andd have decided to call him Malachi Phillip after our brother.

I was the only Hollie that I knew until I started high school then it's like there were a million of us hahaha, now I only know 1 other because the other Holly I was friends with had a sex change LOL,

Nathan is such a unique name, I only know 2 Nathans... I think it's adorable. I like Evan as well because it is so unique and adorable lol.

At least you can change it still :) we didn't hear anyone with the name kaiden until after we had him and than it seemed like everywhere we went you could hear mom's and dad's yelling at their little Kaiden to come here lol

I've seen that.....I see it SO much now more than ever! Again... I like the name but I worry that he will be one of many boys his age with the same name come school age times. I was one of two Samanthas (that I knew of) growing up, and I loved it.

That is a freaking adorable name!! No one uses older names like that anymore!! I love it! I chose older names for my baby girl too, and lately I've been second guessing the first name that I chose, but everyone keeps saying that it is a cute and unique name and that I wont find a more adorable name..... I really wanted Emma, but I'm watching a movie right now where the main character's name is Emma and she's possessed so I have officially as of right now decided to keep her name Abigail Delilah. lmao.
