post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
Oh mamas, I need help narrowing down our lists! :

I can NOT find a name for this baby! I don't even really like any of my girl names, and have two boy names that I like, but am not sure how they will sound with James. I need some serious help! Can you please go through and be brutally honest with me? Please feel free to add names as you see fit. I am getting desperate.

Girls:

Amara
Amelia
Ava
Carys
Claire
Cordelia
Elise
Emma
Kate
Linnea
Lucy
Maggie
Olivia
Rose

Boys:

Ciaran
Dylan
Jude
John
Liam
Oliver
Ronan
Sage
Samuel
Sebastian
Simon
William

I think this will be the list we take to the birth centre. I know with James, who was supposed to be a Braeden, when I first laid eyes on him I knew his name. I'm hoping it will work out that way this time. There are also a few names on that list that are possible middle names, such as John, Sage and Rose. Sage is my hippie name, since I am constantly torn between classic and unusual names.

I also like Grey for a middle name, and Rose is my own, but one I will likely use for a girl, since I haven't found another I like.

I'm afraid I'm no help. I seriously think your girls list and mine are almost identical! Uncanny. My 2 year old is Catherine Elise (Cate) and the babe to be will be Charlotte Caris (Carys--we chose this spelling though since it's a combo of Carol & Doris, the gramma and greatgramma). I really love Linnea, DH doesn't.

I love Linnea Rose!

my favourite of the girls' names you have listed are Amara, Ava, Carys, and Elise. I think I'm leaning more towards Ava and Elise, because they seem to go best with James.

i really like the name Liam for a boy. i also love the name Jude (DS is named Judah), but i'm not sure if you want to go with two J names. we're trying to avoid that trend. both names go well with James, IMO.

just my two cents
