I personally do! If I have a girl, I personally like the name Aisling (pronounced Ailynn) Eve and if I have a boy I like Matthew Kade. 
I have a few other names picked out, like Genevieve for a second girl. Boys names I have a harder time liking, but I do like Victor, which is my husband's middle name. What about you ladies? Have your names all picked out? What are they?

Since I met DH our male name has been picked out (DH is a junior). He told me I could pick girls names though. We've only briefly discussed my ideas, but he didn't seem to hate them
Virginia Ruth or Margaret Mary - Gigi or Maggie Mae for short
But I realize we may change our minds once we get pregnant and meet the kid.
-
@mrsbird: I know an Aisling, but she pronounces it Ash-ling, which is the Irish-Gaelic pronunciation. She was born in Ireland
-
@Mrs. J: AHH my brain wasn't working when I typed Ailynn. I meant to say Ashlynn, which is the way my aunt who was from Ireland pronounced it. It can be pronounced both Ashling and Ashlynn, depending on the person lol. My aunt was named Nora Aisling, Aisling being her middle name.
-
@mrsbird: haha I was going to say, that will be REALLY confusing for her if her name is nothing like it's spelled! I had a student who was Aislinn, too.
-
We are no longer TTC but we did have names we liked... Noelle for a girl and Aston for a boy.
-
We just had a baby so we're definitely not TTC yet, but I am already thinking about names for the next child. I'd like to stick to German names. I was thinking Isla or Elsa for a girl and possibly Alaric for a boy.
-
We started talking about baby names 10 years ago, when we'd just started dating! At that time we planned on Liam for a boy, but then it got super popular. Same thing with Madison for a girl. Apparently we're good at predicting name trends. But we refuse to use overly popular names so those are out now.
But we continued talking about it, so we had R's name picked out before I was pregnant with her. We also already had a second girl name at that point, which we still like and plan to use if this one is a girl. Not sharing though, cause we keep names secret!
Since Liam, we've never found a boy name that either of us loved. We have to use the middle name Ray (family thing for him), and nothing we like works with it. It made it a good thing R was a girl, and hoping this one is too so we can just not worry about it again!
-
Yes but its a secret!!!
-
We have a couple that we love for both a boy and a girl. I think we might not be able to decide between them until we are actually forced to, in the hospital after I give birth
-
Thought I did, but ended up going with something completely different!
-
@MaryM: Ah! LOVE Maggie Mae!
-
@mrsbird: Indeed. I hope we get to do our first IUI in either 3 or 6 weeks (I have short cycles) ... ! Boy name is August and girl name is Ava.
-
I am currently preggers but DH and I have had names picked out for years. Evelyn for girl and William for boy.
-
Julia Maeve if LO2 is a girl or Lachlan John if it is a boy!
-
Not done having babies but definitely don't have names nailed down!
-
We talked about names but didn't decide on anything before TTC. We agree on the type of names we like though - classic, not too trendy. Part of the problem is my husband has a very sarcastic sense of humor and won't talk about things seriously until he has to. He still swears our first born will be named Charles Norris. I told him I veto that choice...
-
@aderyn: DH and I talk about baby names all the time. We thought we had baby names picked out, but the closer we get the more we talk about different names.
Currently we like,
Girl: Clara, Juniper, Penelope, Rosslyn
Boy: Eddison, Dean, Emmett -
We are set for a boy's name. I hope the Mr. still likes it whenever we have one. Most of the name is figured out first and middle, but we may add a second middle.
-
I have been picking out names since elementary school, and DH and I have been discussing them for years, but we haven't settled on anything. For a while Ezra seemed like a lead contender for a boy, and I still like it, but I don't think I'll want to make a final decision until we meet LO.
It seems like if I love a name for too long, it starts to feel a little stale. I would worry that any names picked pre-pregnancy wouldn't still excite me by the end of forty weeks.
-
I think about possible names a lot, but DH won't really discuss names. He usually just makes up stupid names or shrugs his shoulders. I don't think he will be able to talk seriously about it until I am actually pregnant.
Currently, my favorite name is Eleanor Opal (my grandmother's name is Opal) for a girl. I have a hard time thinking of boy names because all of the ones that I like don't really go with our last name.
-
Yep before we tried we knew girl would be.... Giuliana(currently napping) and boy would be a Jr. With nick name A.J.
-
We are taking a break from actively TTC, but we do have names picked out. We both loved Patrick or Lincoln for a boy with Everett as a middle name (it's a family name) and Loren For a girl with a middle name of Elise or Odette. I loved the name August for a boy, but DH was not too keen on it.
-
DH and I had our names picked out before we were even married. Tonight over dinner, we were discussing names for baby #3. This is our future LO we'd like to have next year. I guess we're planners!
-
@lady baltimore: I find I am the same way. We will pick out a name and love it, then after a while it seems... boring? On the other hand I'm worried about picking a name that is the 'flavour of the week' haha.
