Have you all picked names?

Hey everyone,

I've read a few name posts here, but am name-obsessed so thought I'd ask again.

How many of you have settled on a name or have a pretty narrowed down list at this point? Anyone willing to share?

We are having a boy and our list of names changes daily. We really like Charlie--that's the only one that has always remained on the ever-changing-lists. But we also like Phineas.

we have picked out our girl's name, Naima (nye-ee-mah) but are having so much trouble with boy's names! And I am pretty sure that it is a boy. There are lots of options I like but my husband is being such a pain...doesn't like anything and won't allow any name that is held by a family member (and those seem like the only names he likes!) So, I have told him he needs to come up with several names he likes because he always vetoes my suggestions. All he has come up with so far is Soren, which I don't hate, but I worry might sound pretentious.

Since we are having a girl I'll share my boy names with you. I really like Callum and Lachlan for a boy as well as Rhys.

We've picked a name, but can't decide on a middle name and that's the name we're going to use for the baby. So yes I've picked a name, but it's sort of the one that doesn't matter lol

William Paul (named after our dads) --- Wip for a nickname since we couldn't agree on a traditional nickname and I don't want to call him William.

If the u/s was wrong and its a girl, we have a list. Zinnia, Lydia, Ruby, Molly. The middle name would be Zea (zee).

Not even close. We don't even have it narrowed down. Hopefully, we'll find out if it's a boy or girl on Monday and then we'll really start planning.

We are having a hard time with names for our little girl. On top of the list though our Avry, Nilah and Sadie. Middle name most likely Micah

We aren't even close. We sort of have a "flavor" of name we both like, but don't even have a short list yet. Or a long one, for that matter.

My girl is Allison Eliza

A boy would have been Ethan Kilbourne.

We're not even close. I really love the name Neil/Neal so I think that may be our son's middle name. Our other sons are Bennett and Preston, so it might be kind of difficult to pick something that "goes" with their names too. I was thinking Everett, but DH is kind of "meh."

We've been set with a girl name since 8 weeks and a boy name since 18. This time around was so much easier for us.

If the babe were a girl she would have been Abigail Rose, but since it looks like she is a he: his name will be Nathaniel James. James after my husband and Nathaniel can be Nathan for childhood and Nate for adultlife if he likes.

Galloway for a boy and Lilybet for a girl, for today anyway.

We are having a girl and her name is Eleanor Ruby. For a boy, I was leaning towards Owen Reid or Owen Sebastian.
