Mia and Olivia. Ian for a boy!

Dd was almost an Emerson (had she been a boy)
DS#1 and DS#2 would have been Gemma or Tessa if they had been girls
DS#2 was almost an Emmett or Asher.

Love those names!

We only had one boy name, and we used it. But should we have a second, James.

For a girl, Natalie (my grandmother and great-grandmother), Caroline (her sister, my great-aunt) and DH wanted Emma.
Should we have a second and a girl, Natalie with a family name middle name is it.

Dd- Annabel, Clara, Seraphina
Ds- Julian or Sebastian

Evan would have been Evan regardless (it was the only boy name we agreed on then), but his middle name could have been either Howard, David or Russell (instead of Charles).

Our girl names were:
Grace Catherine (still a front-runner for a girl)
Amelia Grace
Eleanor Grace

We were team green. We settled in our girl name pretty early and never wavered. If she was a boy we were leaning towards Xavier or Jason. Earlier we had decided on Lucas but when I was pregnant it didn't feel right.

Our final list for A was: Alice, Lila, Kate, Anna (ended up with Alice)

Our final list for B was: Blake, Sam, Luke, Graham (ended up with Blake)

I let my husband pick the combination of boy/girl names, but by that point we had talked it to death and had the same favorites.

I don't remember an alternate for DD

I really wanted DS to be Elliot. Now I can't imagine it, of course

@mrs. wagon: :O Those names! I can't imagine!!

Our only almost-name was Eric! We went with Marcus instead.

DD1- Everly, Lynden, DH wanted Kendall

DD2- Meredith, Lyla, Mila, DH liked Quinn

We knew she was a girl and agreed on her name shortly after finding out the sex. Other top contenders were Emma, Emily, and Kate. She would've been Henry or Benjamin if she'd been a boy.

Our other girl name was Rosie ... Our boy name was Ari.

Ds was gonna be emmylynn if a girl. No alternate boy name.

Ds#2 was going to be emery. Or levi. We used declan levi instead.

DS1's name was set in stone before we were even engaged and we didn't seriously talk about names until we knew what we were having. I figured why fight about a girl name if we weren't having one! But I think he would have been Eleanor nn Ella.

With DS2, we had a hard time and had a list of names but he would have been Maeve if he was a girl.

With DD we had two choices. The runner-up was Cora.

Thomas and Ryan were our other finalists.

T was almost Marco, Sawyer, Archer, and Beau at one point. At least those were the boy names seriously considered by either DH or myself at one point

We didn't seriously discuss names until we knew gender.

DS: the only other name we threw around was Hunter.
DD: we had two names going in when DD was born. She was thisclose to being an Everly.

We were TG both times.

DD1 was always going to be E if she was a girl. Had she been a boy, we never really settled on a name but would likely have been James, Oliver, or Cameron.

DD2 could have been an Olivia, Claire, or Victoria. Had she been a boy, she would have been James Christopher or Christopher James.

DD1 Was either going to be her name, Everly, or Hazel.

DD2 was either going to be her name or Francesca.
