Did you have a harder time with boy or girl names?
We had so much trouble with boy names...luckily, we had a girl!

Girl names were harder for me. I had all boy names picked out when we found out we were having a girl.
But I love the name we have picked out now!

Girl names! We had a boy picked out that we btoh loved and agreed on, and then bam she was a girl.
Took a little longer to agree on a girl name, I liked more unique and DH was more traditional. We finally agreed (andwell I won haha)

well realistically, neither - but we agreed on a few girl names and NO boy names at a certain point, right before we found out it was a girl. so I guess girl names were easier in a way? haha!

We are TTC, but we've been working on names for a bit now lol. We have a girl name (and a backup girl name) picked out and it was so easy! As for a boy... we have a list of 8 or so names and none of them are IT. lol! Hopefully when I get pregnant the name will just come to me

boy names for sure! we have a boy... but we had a girls name picked from before our gender scan. But it took us an additionaly 10 weeks to choose a boy name.

girl names were harder - ones I liked were either too weird or too common, nothing that was a happy medium.
luckily we had a boy. and we only had one perfect boy name

Boy names were harder! We had a girl name picked out before we even conceived. It was hard to find a boy name that we agreed on.

They are both really hard for us! We are 23 weeks and still not even close to a boy OR girl name (we're team green). But I think boys are probably a little bit harder because my husband is more picky. He seems very concerned about a boy getting picked on for his name. I then remind my husband that he is a 6'6" / 250lbs former NFL player and should we have a son he will probably be so big that getting picked on won't be an issue!!

Girl names, for sure. And LO is a girl. We're planning on using my grandfather's name for a boy.

Ughhhh, we have had a hard time choosing both! We are team green and I am having a lot of difficulty coming up with anything (boy or girl!) that I just love. My husband sent me his list of "final choices" yesterday and I do like some of them very much, but still need to narrow down my choices as well. It is much harder than I expected!

Boy names have definitely been harder! We had a girl name all picked out and ready to go!

Girl names, definitely! Our boy name was picked before we even TTC - DH wanted a Patrick James III. We had to choose another family name that went well with it since we've been blessed with two boys, but when we considered that we might have girls, we were totally stumped!

We had an easier time narrowing down a boy name, just because there were very few that met our criteria (traditional/classic, not on the top 10 list, flows well with our last name, not in use by a family member) and that we could agree on.
Narrowing down to a girl name was harder because we were able to compile a decently-sized short list of names that met all of our criteria..narrowing it down to one has been hard! (We're still going in with 3 girl names).

we aren't TTC yet, but we have talked about names and I think the boy names are MUCH harder - I think our tastes are just more different for the boys, whereas the girls we have several options we both like!

Actually we had more boy options then girl options. But it was easy to make a final decision with our girl name
