I voted for both Eli options though, because it's where you and DH agree. I value consensus above all else, ha! We immediately tossed out any name ideas that didn't excite the other person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657647 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 17:30:16 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2657647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: thank you, dear! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657645 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 17:23:00 +0000 mediagirl 2657645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: congratulations on boy #2. 💙 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657631 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 16:16:20 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2657631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSRS: Parker will be the middle name, that is cute, though!<br /> @Kimberlybee: yeah those are my two favorites too :)<br /> @Periwinkle: ugh they're super hard for me too. We'd had a girls name chosen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657627 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 16:04:45 +0000 MrsSRS 2657627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Elias Lachlan. One from each list, you both like Eli, and they sound nice together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657548 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 11:06:42 +0000 Kimberlybee 2657548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats on your baby boy! You listed some really cute names, I like Beckett &amp; Elliot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657545 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 10:53:53 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2657545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lachlan is by far my favorite! Love it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657536 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 09:38:09 +0000 nana87 2657536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a lot of overlap on our lists! Judah was our boy name pick before we ttc, but then fil passed away and he was named Eliot, so our boy name picks for #2 were similar to your e ones! I love Elliot, Eli or Elias! I think our e boy pick was Elijah-- but we're having a second girl so going w Eleanor </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657501 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 22:42:26 +0000 Periwinkle 2657501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations on boy #2! I just had my second boy and it's been so much fun so far!</p> <p>Boy names are super hard (for me, at any rate). I like the way Beckett goes with your older son's name :) sounds like a great pair, especially with the nicknames. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657469 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 19:24:03 +0000 coopsmama 2657469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Lachlan and Emmett. Eli is okay but I know so many born in the last two years I'm over it. I do like Beckett but not with the middle name Parker as much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657466 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 18:52:46 +0000 hellobeeboston 2657466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just met a little Lachlan and I love it!! Beckett is seeming very popular all of a sudden. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657464 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 18:47:42 +0000 skipra 2657464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: I love all the E names too and wouldn't change my guy'said name even if I knew about the popularity beforehand. If you like nicknames I'd vote for one of the Eli names. But personally I love Cobi and Beck. Or have you considered Ezra? I love that name too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657460 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 17:58:12 +0000 MrsBrewer 2657460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lachlan!

I love how Eli sounds with big brother's name the best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657427 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 15:08:06 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2657427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: oh well thank you, that's a kind thing to say.<br /> Names are hard cause inevitably someone won't like the name lol. And your kid has to live with it forever.<br /> @dc yoga bee: thank you! I definitely think Parker is an easy name to match. Everything goes with it haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657424 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 15:04:01 +0000 dc yoga bee 2657424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like all of your E names, and they flow nicely with Parker and Cobi. Congrats on your :boy: !! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657422 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 14:50:14 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2657422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats on :boy: #2! </p> <p>Emmett sounds great with Parker. All your options are really nice names. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657408 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 14:01:56 +0000 Miss Ariel 2657408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like Eli, but I like it better as a nickname for Elijah. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657399 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 13:17:16 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2657399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: haha that's what everyone e said about Jacobi, since he's Cobi 90% of the time!<br /> I guess we just tend to like longer names that have great nicknames. I'm a nickname person I guess :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657393 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 13:09:25 +0000 erinbaderin 2657393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about Bennett? I'm biased because it's my son's name but it seems like a compromise between your favourite Beckett and Emmett, which you said your husband doesn't mind. </p> <p>That being said if you're going to use Eli as the nickname, why not just go with Eli instead of Elias or Elliott? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657392 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 13:09:16 +0000 Foodnerd81 2657392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Emmett best and I think it sounds gr at with Jacobi. But reading the responses made me realize how cute Beck and Cobi are together...</p> <p>I do agree there are a lot of El- names out there right now, so that would be a mild deterrent, but then again, I named my second daughter the top 9 name in our state... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657391 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 13:08:09 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2657391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2littlepumpkins: I've said to dh maybe we shouldn't choose a name and once we see him, we'll just know! </p> <p>@CakeLady: oooh gotcha! My son doesn't have any of the names we're considering in his preschool class, and we don't personally know any Eli's (I knew an Eli growing up, and I do know someone with an Emmitt). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657386 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 13:00:44 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2657386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: I think I'm partial to Beckett of those you posted! Couldn't tell you why though! </p> <p>We were blah about boy names but when our son was born he just LOOKED like his name. It wasn't even on our short list. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657384 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:54:56 +0000 CakeLady 2657384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: No, sorry. There are 4 boys with E names - 2 boys named Eli (both short for Eliyahu actually) as well as an Elliot and and Emmett. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657380 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:43:21 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2657380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CakeLady: they use the nickname Eli for Emmett? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657378 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:42:00 +0000 CakeLady 2657378@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our DS has one of your E names as well and we LOVE it. But, like @skipra: said E names are super popular. In DS's preschool class there are 2 Eli's, an Elliott, and an Emmett. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657372 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:25:50 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2657372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: I do like Theo- or Theodore! Probably not quite as much as the others, though.<br /> @Anya: I know right? Beck or Becks is so cute.<br /> Although I like how Cobi &amp; Eli sound as well 💗<br /> @Charm54: do you call him Lach/Locke? I like the traditional spelling too!<br /> @Caly: I have never met another Elias, but it's not a weird name- so it has that draw. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657370 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:15:02 +0000 Caly 2657370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Elias! That was my #1 pick had we had a boy...it's also a family name. It also goes well with your son's name 😊 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657367 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:12:05 +0000 Charm54 2657367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lachlan was our boy name. I :heart: it. I know 3 boys born in the last year spelt Lochlan but I prefer the traditional spelling. I'm sad I won't get to use it !! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-boy-names-1#post-2657366 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:10:48 +0000 Anya 2657366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Lachlan a lot.</p> <p>But Cobi &amp; Beck... could there be a cuter pair?! </p>
