baby name faves


This Wednesday we have an appointment to find out the gender of our little bambino!  WE ARE SO EXCITED!  Either way I am excited....a boy would be great fun...but another girl would mean sisters (a girl would also mean not having to purchase a single thing because we have lots of girl gear!)  Neither of us have our fingers crossed for anything except a healthy baby...honestly.

So before the big reveal I will share some of the names that Tommy and I have been considering as  potentials.  Tommy and I are so funny....some names I will LOVE and he will hate...and vice versa.  I've included both of our lists!

*disclaimer...there are a couple names that were magically on BOTH of our lists as our top picks...and I don't want to share them quite yet.  You may remember that we didn't even share Clara's name until she was actually BORN (not even with our parents!)  I dunno...it's our thing.  I don't want to hear people's horror stories or nasty thoughts about the name we have selected for our baby...so that's that.

Boy names that I like:
Milo
Russell
George (this is a family name that I like more and more)
Owen
Liam
Dexter
Max
Luke

Boy names that TOMMY likes:
Henry
Harvy
Carleton
Vaughn
Preston
Jasper
Leyton
*I have to say this list baffled me...especially the Harvey?  But Tommy thinks it's awesome.

Girl names that I like:
Hazel
Bess
Molly
Lola
Alice
Lucy
Gwen

Girl names that TOMMY likes:
Amelia
Abigale
Elenora
Millie
Macy
Virginia
Audrey
Bessie
*I thought this list was rather lovely.

  1. I'm the same way about not telling names! I also avoided others' lists because I didn't want to not pick a name just because someone else had!

    And just wanted to say I LOVE the name Amelia. Like, it's a top pick of mine for if we have another girl. However, my husband hates it :(

  2. I LOVE the name Henry. It's my new baby name obsession for the future. Luke and Liam are favorites too- I knew two adorable toddlers with those names when I worked at a daycare. They had the absolute best kid personalities.

  6. I've kept a running list of top names in my phone for as long as I can remember. The problem is, Tiho and I have over three girl names (both first and middle) ready to go and cannot for the life of us agree on a single boy name. (we're not trying yet, but love to play the name game! Well *I* love to play the name game, ha). Just watch, we're going to end up with a house of boys, I know it.

  7. It's going to be hard to top Clara.

    How about Clarissa, Clarabelle, Clarinda, or Clarence?

    :-)

  8. Tommy picked one of my new favorites for a boy - Jasper.

    I never thought about that name until I saw it somewhere recently and fell in love with it.
