We are one and done but it kills me that I'll never get to use the name. It was my grandfather's name so I wouldn't use it with a pet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972822 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 16:04:37 +0000 nana87 1972822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right after LO was born, and we named her a name we loved and had been wanting to name a daughter for such a long time, the name Ayelet randomly popped into my head and has stuck. Maybe we'll have another girl someday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972809 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 15:59:37 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1972809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: Thank you so much.

So naturally, we ended up having two boys and never got to use any of them. LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972644 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 14:19:24 +0000 Meowkers 1972644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really the same but we named our cat Vincent long before we were married or even thought of having kids. Now we agree that Vincent would be the perfect name for a son. We're having a daughter so it's not an issue at the moment. But should our next one be a boy, he may be Vincent II. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972639 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 14:17:14 +0000 Mrs. J 1972639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: I know! We'll just have to have a girl this time so we don 't have to worry about our lack of boy names that we both agree on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972633 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 14:14:30 +0000 MaryM 1972633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom planned to call me Anthony, but I came out a girl. They ended up naming my brother's cabbage patch kid Tony. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972625 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 14:10:39 +0000 lawbee11 1972625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. J: That's too bad...it sounds so nice with your LO's name! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972619 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 14:07:56 +0000 Mrs. J 1972619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: I LOVE Henry, but DH says no :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972603 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:55:30 +0000 lawbee11 1972603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: :grin: LO can't say Henry so she just calls him "He." It's cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972596 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:51:27 +0000 Torchwood 1972596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're nowhere close to done, but we're only planning on two and I have at least four girl names I LOVE, so I'll be in that boat eventually. I'll totally be using them for pets later. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972591 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:48:32 +0000 autumnlove 1972591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: love that name! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972588 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:45:28 +0000 lawbee11 1972588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wasn't after, but LO would've been Henry if she were a boy. Since we never got to use the name on a LO we decided to name our kitten Henry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1972582 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:42:00 +0000 Bao 1972582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When DH and I were dating we both fell in love with the name Jack. Sadly we are done having kids, and had two girls, so we won't be able to use that name. We got a kitten this summer and named it Jack. Well he turned out to be a she so that was short lived. Still a bit sad we won't ever get to use that name but maybe we can use it for something in the future, for a fish or something ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-fall-in-love-with-any-names-after-you-were-done-having-kids#post-1971654 Thu, 04 Dec 2014 21:13:20 +0000 mrbee 1971654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really loved the name Milo, but didn't think of it until after we had our son! Maybe we'll get a dog someday and name him Milo... is it wrong to use your "leftover" names on animals?</p> <p>Did you fall in love with any names after you were done having kids? </p>
