Funny story though. We just found out we're having a boy and my mom texted me this morning saying she had a dream about the name Tyler. It's definitely in the running now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote/page/2#post-160194 Wed, 16 May 2012 11:23:20 +0000 pastemoo 160194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ohhh... I'm dumb. I figured out DH's father's last name. Oops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160189 Wed, 16 May 2012 11:20:39 +0000 pastemoo 160189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: So... your DH's dad's name was Tyler Taylor W?<br /> I think you can't go wrong with either, but I like Tyler better--I like Ty better than Tay as a nickname.</p> <p>PS For last name games, we were thinking about naming our little boy Pike, Dante, or Max<br /> and a little girl could be Min (Minnie?), or Chesa. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160178 Wed, 16 May 2012 11:09:46 +0000 lemondrop 160178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Taylor, but Tyler is great too- you can't go wrong!</p> <p>We ran into the male/female snag with the name Cameron- it helped going to the zoo, I ran into more Mom's yelling at their male Cameron's than female ones. The final score was 4 male to 2 female, but we loved the name and it fit him so well in the end it didn't matter. Of course then the name popularity kinda worried me too :) I haven't met any female Taylor's, so my perspective is mostly male with that name. </p> <p>I really enjoyed playing the last name game too Mrs. Wildebeast ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160163 Wed, 16 May 2012 10:47:33 +0000 Bluebonnet 160163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Tyler over Taylor.</p> <p>Tyler John would be great. I also like John Tyler. </p> <p>Good luck! Finalizing the name is so hard! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160135 Wed, 16 May 2012 10:18:11 +0000 nana87 160135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Taylor more than Tyler, though I'm in the minority. I like the way it sounds, as well as the family significance. There's nothing girlie at all about the actor named Taylor who played Riggins in Friday Night Lights, so it can be very masculine too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160114 Wed, 16 May 2012 09:51:41 +0000 Mrs. Bee 160114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i like the name tyler more for a boy, but looks like taylor has more of a family meaning. since you will have an awesome last name, i think taylor still sounds kinda masculine with it.</p> <p>i still like tyler better though. when i think taylor, i think taylor lautner and taylor swift. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160096 Wed, 16 May 2012 09:41:17 +0000 winniebee 160096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The overwhelming majority is voting Tyler!</p> <p>Funny this morning when DH asked me what I thought, I said I wanted him to pick. He said "this isn't like ordering take out!" Haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160065 Wed, 16 May 2012 09:32:54 +0000 Shutterbug 160065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: @Lozza: Haha I voted for Tyler because when I think "Taylor" I think "Lautner" who plays a (were)wolf in Twilight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-160007 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:59:54 +0000 DillonLion 160007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like Tyler more, because I'm not wild about names that can be used for either gender. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159998 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:49:18 +0000 heffalump 159998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm biased, my dad's name is Tyler. But I think they're both nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159995 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:47:58 +0000 Foodnerd81 159995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have always loved the name Tyler, plus i kind of prefer obviously male or female names, so I voted for that. But really I like both, a lot.<br /> I figured on what your last name was, but preferred to think of it as Wolverine or Wildcat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159991 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:45:44 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 159991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tyler over Taylor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159986 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:40:28 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 159986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted for Tyler. It was one of the boy names we considered when I was first pregnant! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159985 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:39:06 +0000 Andrea 159985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HAHAHA. Since I already knew your last name, I am LMAO!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159984 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:35:19 +0000 mrs. wagon 159984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooh if I'm correct in guessing the last name now, I'm DEFINITELY going with Tyler John! Sounds so COOL! Sounds like a cool attorney. Assistant DA, Tyler John W., Esquire. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159978 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:22:38 +0000 MamaMoose 159978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely like Tyler better. It's more masculine, has a great nickname, and I think it flows better with your last name. It's great that Taylor is a family name but I do think of it as a more feminine name and I think the fact that you are already using a family name from your husband's side makes it OK to pass on Taylor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159975 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:19:49 +0000 lilteacherbee 159975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH's name is Tyler so I'm gonna go with Tyler John :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159969 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:14:03 +0000 Mrs. Blue 159969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I slightly prefer Taylor. Most of the people I know named Taylor are men, so I tend to associate it as more masculine than feminine. I really like both combos, though, so you really can't go wrong! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159968 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:13:02 +0000 chopsuey 159968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ty's a great nickname! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159955 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:02:00 +0000 winniebee 159955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lozza: LOL I do like Twilight.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159952 Wed, 16 May 2012 08:00:31 +0000 gracecat 159952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha, the first W name of a wild animal that popped up in my mind is Wildebeest! I like both names, I don't think you can go wrong with either of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159948 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:57:40 +0000 Lozza 159948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: How long did it take you to rule out "Jacob" as an option? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159947 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:57:16 +0000 PBandBaseball 159947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted for Tyler because I think the three names flow better, but they are both great choices!!</p> <p>ETA: I also love the nickname Ty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159943 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:55:01 +0000 dc yoga bee 159943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: I'm an idiot! All this education and no common sense!!! IF it's what I think it is I kind of like Tyler better now!</p> <p>ETA: middle name were ftw </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159939 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:53:52 +0000 winniebee 159939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lozza: we joked about having "Lone" or "Were" as the middle name : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159933 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:52:06 +0000 Lozza 159933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm just a little sad you're not considering "Were" as a middle name...<br /> Because seriously, there is really no animal fiercer than a Werewildebeest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159928 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:50:56 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 159928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Grace: I was going to say wombat or wolverine! Those would be two kick-ass last names! (though I actually know Winnie's last name) :). Winnie, I don't think you can go wrong either way with the names. Neither seems particularly girlie to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159925 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:49:14 +0000 dc yoga bee 159925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Okay not Weaver yeah there's a weaver bird or something! Wasp!!! Is Wasp even a last name!?! I give up!!! I still like Taylor regardless! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-vote#post-159923 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:46:57 +0000 SugarplumsMom 159923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I personally like Taylor, but voted for Tyler because I feel that one family name (from the same side of the family) is significant enough. But both are masculine =) </p>
