Pretty sure we will be team green this time around 
but I am trying to get a good list of options going!
We are 99% settled on our next boy name. Our other sons are Carter and Graham. Last name Jones.
Have any ideas to add?
Evelyn
Genevieve
Juniper
Lucille
Marlene
Marlowe
Maxine
Naomi
Penelope
Sloane
Sylvia
Do you have a favorite from above?

Well, my two daughters are on your list above. 
(Alrhough DH has added a potential few choices to our list in case DD2 doesn't come out looking like a Sylvia...this go around is his turn to make the final decision!)
My favorite from your list is Marlowe and we've had such excellent feedback from nearly everyone - there isn't a day that goes by that someone doesn't positively comment on her name! So I love it. I also love Sloane. And Genevieve nn Evie is too cute!
Other names we've also considered for this baby are Adelaide, Willa, Della, and Quinn.

If A wasn't already named, I would be using this one: Catriona (Irish form of Katrina). I also love:
Madelyn
Georgia
Eliana

Evelyn is my favorite from your list. It was actually my #1 name for my LO, but DH vetoed it because he thought it was "too popular" (we went with Vivian instead). I also love Sylvia, or Sylvie.

@coopsmama: Genevieve is probably my favorite right now, nn Gennie. I really do love Marlowe though. Love your kiddo's names 
@avivoca: I wish I could use Georgia, so pretty! 
I feel like it clashes with my last name.
@catlady: We used to have Vivian on our list (love it) but one of the couples in our life group had a Vivian.
@whiskers: Yes, I agree!!

I really like a lot of these! Combined with your boys' names my favorites are Genevieve, Marlowe, and Penelope.

@LemonJack: Loving Genevieve right now Penelope was supposed to be my first son's name when we were told we were having a girl (4 years ago) so it doesn't have the same spark for me like it used to

100% Sloane
I take it back. I didn't pay attention to your last name. Sloane Jones is too rhymey. Genevieve now takes my vote!

Sloane Jones is way too rhyme-y IMO. My favorites from your list are Evelyn and Lucille (though I much prefer just Lucy).

@Truth Bombs: @lawbee11: I was afraid of that! Grrr. Love the name but I agree, it just doesn't go.
@Mrs. Pickles: Cassidy is pretty!

I think I am just assuming baby #3 will be another boy, so it's hard to fall in love with any girl names. My boy name makes my heart skip a beat though (Harvey).
Thanks for weighing in! It was helpful!

Ohhh I LOVE your list!
Evelyn is my absolute favorite (but we have an Evan, of course).
Lucille was also on our short list (D's favorite), as were Eleanor (ended up being DD's middle name) and Eloise (runner-up for middle name).
We also "considered" Hazel, Camille, Rosemary, Matilda, and Beatrice. (Once we knew she was a girl it was going to be Grace).

@lovehoneybee: Eleanor and Eloise could be great middle names to add to my list! I wish I could use Camille, one of my best friends has a Camilla. I've seen Beatrice but have dismissed it because I think I would really have to sell it to my hubs but I do like it! Bea as a nickname

Juniper!!!!! It's my absolute favorite, but my husband vetoed it. Our daughters name is Evelyn.

@IRunForFun: I think Audrey is very pretty and I have it down as a middle name option but it seems to be lacking the spunk I am looking for...
@chopsuey: Thank you!!
My husband vetoed Genevieve 
I gave him a list and told him to pick 4 or 5 from it....so now, I wait

@lilyann: if this is your last and it's a girl maybe Harlow since you like Harvey and Marlowe? But if you might have more it would probably rule out Harvey in the future which is super cute!

@lilyann: we have a Harvey!
I love Naomi with your last name
An alternative could be Noemi
Also I'm in love with the name Bianca lately

I LOVE Evelyn and Genevieve.
I cringe when I hear Naomi. I just cant' not think about a guy I once knew cracking a joke about it and pointing out that its "I Moan" backwards.

@Mrs. Champagne: I love the name Harlow but we are keeping the door open for 1 more after this.
@magnolia: Bianca is super cute! I've had my eye on that name too!

@lilyann: A few more -
Arden
Magnolia
Maren/Marin
Aspen
Blythe
Serephina
Willow

@lilyann: Currently pregnant with a girl, her name will be Juniper, so obviously that's my vote from you list!

Not on your list that I love:
- Freya
- Raina
- Rosslyn
- Ellyot
