Love this name, just not for my kid

    I love the name Benjamin but have a cousin with that name.

    We considered Elias for our son but decided to name him Tobias. We will never use Elias now since I don't want kids who rhyme.

    Simone. I love that name and think it's so cool, but it seems too grown up for a baby.

    Benjamin and Justin b/c they are names of ex-boyfriends! Makes it too weird.

    Other Girls: Sawyer & Sutton (girls), Ellison, Georgia, Colette. Willa due to our last name.

    Honestly girl names are all we've really thought about besides Wyatt & Will for boys which are both out due to last name.

    Evelyn is one of my favorites, but it's too close to our last name. I've always loved Katelyn Makenna, but my husband hates that name.

    Hudson - starts with the same letter as our last name, and is sort of rhymey with our last name.

    Niamh - love, love, love it ever since reading "Orphan Train". While our little ginger would pull off the name, I feel like we would need an Irish last name, and we don't.

    Sadie - again I love it, but DH thinks it's a dogs name, and knew someone with a dog named Sadie.

    @LulaBee: WE tossed around this name for our first, and ended up going with Emerson, and it's too close if we were to have another girl! Love it though! Do you call her Ellie?

    @LuLu Mom: We thought we would call her Ellie but it just doesn't suit her. When we call her that jokingly now, she puts us in our place and says that is NOT her name. I love Emerson- DD's best friend is an Emerson.

    @LulaBee: Completely understand that I have an Everly that I thought I would call Evie and it just doesn't fit her either!

    I love so many of the most popular names right now but DH is dead set against anything in the top 100, never mind top 10. My favorite is probably Ava.

    I really reeeallly love Clementine but too many negative comments when we were expecting for me to name a child Clementine. I still love it though!

    Also Emma (too popular)
    and my son is obsessed with the Hotel Transylvania movies and I think Mavis is a pretty name!

    @LuLu Mom: It's the name of an old gold mining town near me. Plus, Nota is an adorable nickname.

    Lot of H names (because we have a H last name and I don't like the HH): Hillary, Harper, Holly.

    Nina because well, my name is Gina and that's just weird.

    Rachel, Rebecca because with our last name it sounds really Jewish (but we're not Jewish at all! Just have a common Jewish sounding last name)

    That's all I've got! Oh, and they are all girl names. LOL. I have a hard time thinking of boy names.

    @simplyfelicity: My sister got it from an old movie "Wild Hearts can't be broken"

    @LuLu Mom: That was also one of my favorite movies growing up. I show it to my class every year.
