Hubs's grandmother's name was Jenny, and we didn't really like Liviana Jenny, so we'd just use Jen instead. We're saving it for possible baby #2.

We were going to choose Howard as a middle name regardless of gender, as it is my late FIL's name. @bisous: I really like Garrett! Although, I told DH that he could name the next LO. :) Oooo! ETA: I really liked Vaughn, but never could get DH on board.

A less common spelling of Orville was at the top of my list. Ya know, because Orville is way too common. I know DH would have made me dial it back about 3 levels of "uniqueness."

I spend hours thinking about these things just for fun! I try to take into account so many aspects of the family and the sound of the name. I know I've contributed to the name of at least one baby here and to one of my co-workers. I wouldn't know how to really get myself out there and I can't imagine that the people who would pay me for my skills would be the kind of people who would give a rats patootie about what I think! But if you have ideas about how I can achieve this, let me know! anbanan15 on "If your LO was the opposite gender, what would his/her name be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-had-been-the-opposite-gender-what-would-hisher-name-be/page/2#post-910824 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 08:57:16 +0000 anbanan15 910824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ The name we are using for the little girl I'm currently pregnant with :wink: No matter which order, if we had a boy and a girl, it would have been the same two names.

I'm starting to change my tune on a middle name, though. bisous on "If your LO was the opposite gender, what would his/her name be?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-had-been-the-opposite-gender-what-would-hisher-name-be/page/2#post-910804 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 08:37:22 +0000 bisous 910804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Garrett Malone or Braden Malone Saving those for #2 in case it's a boy!

I was pretty sure it was a girl. We tried to decide on a boy's name just in case but we never really came to agreement on one we both really loved.
