We wanted to use an "out there" name for him, but we didn't want him to get teased, so it seemed natural to put it in place of my last name. For the girls it seemed really important to have my last (especially if they decide to change their last names when they partner up. Though I kind of hope that they don't feel the need to do so). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141136 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 10:24:00 +0000 wrkbrk 2141136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTal: You have superb taste! Haha. Felix is on our list, as is Henry and weirdly - I had a dream waaaaay before I was pregnant that we had a son named Declan! This was before I read baby boards and I had never even heard of that name. I thought I had made it up! Haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141135 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 10:22:52 +0000 wrkbrk 2141135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Love it! What a gorgeous name! Funny you mention using your last name for your daughters - we are doing that, too, if it's a girl. Camille [my last name][DW's last name]. The initials will be CCB which are DW's mom's initials so baby Camille will inherit the silver. Hahaha. (Only halfway joking)! But we won't do it for a boy. Not really sure why but its just not working out that way!<br /> ETA: Had not thought about hebrew names yet! OMG so many decisions!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141134 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 10:22:25 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2141134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsTal: sigh, impeccable taste! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141133 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 10:21:52 +0000 MrsTal 2141133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: you and I have similar name taste! I mentioned in your other thread that our LO name is August nn Gus. Our other 4 contenders were, Ezra, Henrik (nn Henry), Theodore, and Simon. I also liked Declan, Maddox, Lennox, dexter, Bennett, Tobias, Felix, and Indiana. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141132 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 10:20:13 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2141132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: not confused at all... I totally get the complexities. (In fact I love the challenge)... (Ooh are you doing Hebrew names too? We did.)</p> <p>When I found out that Mr. Jacks didn't actually like his middle name, we decided not to use it. (Actually I put my foot down). So he's Theodore Fr@ncis V@lentine. Against all my feminist inclinations, I skipped using my last name as a<br /> Middle name name for him though I did with the girls, just so we'd have space for Valentine :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141128 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 10:14:45 +0000 wrkbrk 2141128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: I like Whitman! Adding it! Did you go with Landon or Francis for Theo's middle name? DW likes Rye for a middle name - trouble is, she likes it with William (family name on her side). Nothing wrong with that, but it's not too exciting. If we went with August, we were looking at Duncan for his middle name (again, family name on her side). That way we would have an "A" and a "D" for my deceased grandparents' names (jewish tradition). ;) Confused yet? Haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141124 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 10:09:58 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2141124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: what about Whitman? And yes, Camille or Camilla is perfect for a girl :)</p> <p>I think you should reserve Rye for the middle name- August Rye! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141117 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 09:52:46 +0000 wrkbrk 2141117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ellewoods84: Thank you! Rhys is close to Rye, which is on the list as well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141110 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 09:42:14 +0000 ellewoods84 2141110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love love August. I also love Camille! Some names on our boy list were Rhys, jack, Oliver, Julian, Reid, wyatt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141093 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 09:12:37 +0000 birdofafeather 2141093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: I know a male Whitney so it's not totally out of the question for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141074 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:36:57 +0000 wrkbrk 2141074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for the Gus love, all! Haha! It's still right up there as number one or two. 7 months to decide ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141073 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:36:08 +0000 wrkbrk 2141073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Torchwood: Apollo is a good one! We love Whit for a boy but are not sure we should saddle a little kid with Whitney ... ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141072 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:35:38 +0000 wrkbrk 2141072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrschickpea: Harrison is firmly on the list! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141070 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:35:05 +0000 wrkbrk 2141070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Charm54: Love Drew and Andrew - they are on the list! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141069 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:34:49 +0000 wrkbrk 2141069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: Camille. :) Somehow we agreed and got lucky on that one! Which of course means it will be a boy. ;)<br /> ETA: We added Felix! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141061 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:20:05 +0000 Charm54 2141061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This LO , if it's a boy, will be Lachlan. I also love Henry, Colin and Drew! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141060 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:19:59 +0000 WinterBee 2141060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: I really like the name August, maybe that means we have similar tastes? Hah.<br /> Here's the top boy names we have right now, I like strong, simple, but not super common names.</p> <p>Dean<br /> Emmett<br /> Eddison</p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141057 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 08:15:34 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2141057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: nice choices. I really like Frederick, though I wasn't as in love with it's nicknames.</p> <p>Lorenzo would have been my top pick if I hadn't dated one, and the nickname Enzo is too cute!</p> <p>Francis and all of it's variations were appealing to us (enough to make it Theo's middle name!). Phillip is great if you don't nickname it.</p> <p>I still think Gus is at the top of my list for you. I don't think you'll regret it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141036 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 07:00:52 +0000 twodoghouse 2141036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still like Gus! What girl name did you agree on? I love your naming style! What about:</p> <p>Felix, Phineas, Silas, Fitzgerald, Davis, Arthur, Dexter, Quentin, Frederick, Holden, Lucca, Leo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2141034 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 06:53:10 +0000 buttermilk 2141034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wrkbrk: I love Henry!! It was on our list but we are having a girl. So classic I think. But really love August a lot so cute!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2140989 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 00:10:19 +0000 mrschickpea 2140989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sullivan, Elliot, Lane, Arlo, Mark, Harrison, Sebastian, Emeric, Leopold :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2140986 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 00:07:18 +0000 Torchwood 2140986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also, I love Sidney for a boy, but I didn't even realize Whitney was considered unisex. I only think girl with that one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2140985 Sun, 12 Apr 2015 00:06:26 +0000 Torchwood 2140985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've never successfully found a boy name we both love (which is thankfully not an issue since we've only managed to make girls), but our first choice is Apollo. Middle name would be Ray for family reasons, though neither of us cares for it. We have a very common last name (most common in US, as far as I know), and DH and I both have very common names, so we didn't want to saddle any of our LO's with overly common names. DH had 3 other guys with his same first and last name just in our dorm building. Don't even want to know how many there were in the entire school. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2140958 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 22:35:59 +0000 cookiemomster 2140958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not much help because I seriously love August and the nn Gus. It's my #1 pick for a boy. I also love Isaac, Ezra, and Oliver. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-for-fun-baby-boy-name-post#post-2140915 Sat, 11 Apr 2015 21:25:11 +0000 curlymama318 2140915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some of our top contenders were Julian and Kellan! </p>
