Naming a child is so hard, they are stuck with it for the rest of their lives so it has to be just right!<br /><br />I had baby names picked out before I had even met my husband. Luckily our son's name was one we could agree on it was set in stone before I was ever pregnant. Our daughter was much harder to choose for. As a teacher, I have a hard time with names because I start to associate names with certain kids I've had. We found girls names to be almost impossible to agree on one, but finally in exasperation my husband said a name and I actually liked it! If we ever had another girl though, we'd be in trouble. Although I do like Hannah Marjorie (for my grandmother). If we ever had another boy we'd pick Noah Michael or Nolan Scott (middle names are family names). <br /><br />I love this post - so fun to think about! :)The New Normalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15945847748815360390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520849174973581756.post-40339387039738442562011-10-26T14:21:23.333-05:002011-10-26T14:21:23.333-05:00ah, i love your taste in names.

Thomas, because we liked it, and Kyle, for my husbands middle name. As for other boy names I like, there's Samuel, Isaac, Evan, Elliott... I like boy names :)<br /><br />Of course, we found out we were having a girl, and still haven't settled on a name. We narrowed it down to a top 5: Victoria, Penelope, Violet, Caroline and Olivia. Then we narrowed it down to a top 2: Victoria Marie or Penelope Ann. That's where we are now!Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09543581308363689982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520849174973581756.post-88197988264217716422011-10-26T10:54:50.531-05:002011-10-26T10:54:50.531-05:00For some reason I have never planned out baby name...For some reason I have never planned out baby names.

We aren't having kids any time soon but we have such a tough time agreeing on names. We do have one girl's name (Isabella Blake) and one boy's name (Jack Christopher) that aren't based on anything except Christopher is my husband's name. If I had it my way though, every kid we have would have a named that would have some tie into literature or movies. Because I'm cool like that.Erinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06373958835653258521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520849174973581756.post-74634349021572236572011-10-26T09:10:40.101-05:002011-10-26T09:10:40.101-05:00As mentioned on facebook, it's gonna be Molly ...As mentioned on facebook, it's gonna be Molly and Oliver.

I love old-fashion names as well, hence my daughter's name: Emma. My grandmother's name is Amelia and I actually LOVE that name too, but I wasn't able to get my husband on board. I think Amelia would also be pretty spelled: Emilia, except it kind of takes on a different sound. As for boy names, my husband and I have had our boy name picked out since we were just dating: Jackson (after my husband's grandfather: Jack). We like Daniel for a middle name (that's my father in law's name). I also like Cash for a middle name. I think Jackson Cash has a nice ring to it. I love your baby name list!

Sadly, all I had were boys. (Well, not really sadly, because I LOVE my boys.) So, Hubband and I duked it out until the end over boys names, because you're right, they're hard. <br /><br />All the women on my mother's side of the family have a name (aside from my sister, poor girl) that ends with an "rah". Had our last been a girl her name would have been "Lyrah Lynne". The Lyrah came to me in a dream (how ridiculous is that?) and Lynne is my mom's middle name.Mommy McDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02825280183000961127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520849174973581756.post-64638157808075095622011-10-26T07:29:42.504-05:002011-10-26T07:29:42.504-05:00Boy, Robin james (after my husband Robin and his b...Boy, Robin james (after my husband Robin and his brother James), Liam Mitchell<br />girl, Piper Joy, Camilla Jean (my mom is camille, my grandma is Jean)<br />William soemthingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520849174973581756.post-23750679207755696822011-10-26T00:36:02.321-05:002011-10-26T00:36:02.321-05:00I love picking out baby names.

It was going to be Landen's name if he was a girl. <br />Sadie Jean <br />I just like Sadie, it's an old name and it cute as 1 month and classy at 100 yrs old. (I like how you put that by the way)<br />Jean is for my Grandmother and Aunt (May they rest in peace) Also, I was named after the two of them Jeanelle (my middle name) <br />As far as boys names.... We have a name picked out-<br />Liam <br />It is an old name also. I have no idea for the middle name as DH is a 3rd and every other man in the family have some sort of variation of Jessie or Eugene... DH hates his middle name. <br />Of course I cannot forget my sons name-<br />Landen Reese <br />Landen is an old name with a new twist to it. I had to do the new twist so that it had some family heritage. I was named after my dad and grandfather. (Paul and Len) <br />Landen is Len and Dan put together and mixed up. Reese is an ancestor of my husbands family.Paulena B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06401523354336373304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5520849174973581756.post-87725804076005037452011-10-26T00:10:26.683-05:002011-10-26T00:10:26.683-05:00We're agreeingly those people who want to have...We're agreeingly those people who want to have a certain genealogy for potential offspring, our choice being English names since it's our main trace of our roots.<br /><br />But as far as specifics...nope.

Biblical is what we went with. Zack picked out Noah's first middle name (Karter) and his second middle name is my granddad's middle name (Arthur). Gracie's name is Grace from my dad's mom Lynn from Zack's stepmom's middle name, Olive is my gram's middle name, and Addison is someone's middle name that Zack served in Iraq with in 2007-2008 that basically saved his life. (It's a guy's middle name) ;) And with this baby we've decided on Harrison Everett Glenn (insert last name). We've got nothing for a girl ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16236007227243300785noreply@blogger.com
