Anyone still not have a name??  

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
I've had this weird feeling this whole pg about it feeling right to name her after I see her. With DD1 I picked her/his names at like 2 weeks after finding out and never looked back. This time, we have NO CLUE!!! We've had a few names we liked come and go, and as of right now, absolutely NOTHING!! I'm not worried though, which is weird, or atleast to EVERYONE around us. They think we are nuts for not even having a few names picked out. I mean, we have had names, but nothing that has stuck through out this pg. I feel like she will come with a name or something, as wierd as that sounds, I know! Its like we will know it when we see her.

Anyone else not have a name?

hehe...no clue huh? Yes, maybe she'll come out with a name, or some papers or something like a Cabbage Patch doll...:LOL No pressure, though...I'm sure a name will just jump out at you after you look into her eyes. Don't they give you like 30 days or something to fill out the birth certificate too?

I'm not 100% settled yet, but have a few names to choose from.

We have a girls name. We told DS 2 1/2 and we use it for the baby all the time. However, about 3 weeks ago DH and I looked at each other one evening to realize we were both having second thoughts on the name.

DH hasn't picked out a middle name yet (that I like). So we'll see what happens. If we change the name, poor DS will be like hugh....

Our final short list was Harper, Maeve, Alice, and Greer. We waited until about 7 hours after she was born to choose Greer. I think how much time you have to choose a name may vary by state. In Wisconsin you have a year. The longest my midwife has had someone take was 7 months. I think they were an anomaly though. :LOL I think it gets much easier to choose once you have the baby in your arms.

Our little girl is now 12 days old and we still have no name decided!
We keep trying different things out to see how we feel calling her them, right now we are trying out Cora, and I think it might stick, but we havent picked a middle name. It's such a big job, choosing someone else's name! All the names we thought we liked before she was born just dont seem right now. We have 18 days left of our 30 days to register her, so hopefully we figure it out reaaallly soon!

We're stuck, too. We had decided on Liam for a boy and Aurelia for a girl, but changed our minds . I sold dh on Aurelia months ago and now I can't find a middle name that fits and that I like. He's still sold on it.

My niece passed away last month and we've decided to use the letters in her name (Emmaleigh Elizabeth) for a first or middle name for our baby. So far, I like Béla, Gaela and Atlee/Atlei... possibly Mae. We haven't done much focusing on finding new combinations for the past few weeks...

My mother likes that combination, too. Her mother's middle name was Mae, and my older sister's as well. DH also has a great-aunt named Mae. We are definitely condsidering it!

Thanks for the feedback! We really have been needing some help...
