Declan! I also love the name Benjamin, but DH does not, and this is not just a hypothetical question for me since I'm actually having another boy in October, haha. And in the past, with my first son, my answer to this question...well, I'm really hesitant to put their names together in a non-gold thread, I try to avoid being Google-able, but it starts with an L...think Walk to Remember.

Most likely Eoin which was our boy name when I was pg with my daughter. But now I'm not sure! I also like Vaughn, Harvey (vetoed by dh), and Layton (don't want another L name since my dd is an L name too)

We have the best boy names for our son and our cat (Tor and Brock) it's going to be very hard to match them if we get anther boy. These have already been vetoed by my husband:
Rocco
Rutger
Keith
Calvin
Maximilian
Blaise
Kyle

@wonderstruck: I looooove your Walk to Remember L name!! I tried to talk DH into loving it when we were naming DS!

@Running Elley: Aw, thanks! Luckily I had an easy time with that one, as soon as I suggested it DH was on board. The second time around has not been that easy! DH really doesn't like it though when people ask, "Like from A Walk to Remember?" about L's name and I say yes. He says it's embarrassing and I need to just tell them we just saw it in a baby name book, haha!

Emmett or he would be named after FIL, who passed away a few years ago.

@Corduroy: that's my dog's name, and I love it! We named him after Roscoe Village, a neighborhood in Chicago where we lived. Just wanted to share

Ugh, I have no ideas. I had a dozen girl names picked out, and one or two boy names. Yet I am naming a boy, so....my husband keeps saying (like, 3 times a day) "I like the name Jack." So do I, babe, but it's overused!!! The next 6 months will be quite a name-battle, I imagine!

@redsmarties: I love Sawyer, just don't think it would go with our last name
Dylan or Oscar are still our top picks.

@wonderstruck: I like your 'L' name too!
I like Colin, but dh does not want a son named after him! I also like Connor, Caleb and Charlie (no idea why I like all C names!)

Ugh we're no where near ready w/ boy names. I'm inclined to name him Elias, and DH likes Asher but I don't want Ash to be his nickname!

Boys names are hard. I think we have thought about the following when we were Team Green:
Davis
Jackson (a family name for DH, which I resisted)
Colin
Rhys
Grant
Dylan

@Kemma: @LuLu Mom: Levi is SO cute! I know if we ever have another my mom will try to shoot it down because she worked for a judge named Levi, but I love it so much.

@ChiCalGoBee: My DH and I had the same debate about the name Zachary - I tossed it out there and he really liked it, but I felt like it was too popular - I've worked with at least 6 guys named Zach! But even after I said no to it every conversation he would say he liked Zachary. Eventually I just start saying, "And I still really like the name Benjamin! But you don't like Benjamin and I don't like Zachary, so move on." That seemed to finally get it to start sinking in.

I love the name Jude, but our last name starts with a B, so it doesn't work.
I like the name Evan, but DH doesn't like it.

Today I think I would pick Holden. It was on our list for LO #1.

We're having a hard time with this! DH has a weird last name and nothing goes with it.
We both currently like Sebastian, but it's a long name and I can't think of a good nickname. The only corresponding nickname I've heard is "Bash", and I'm not a fan of that one...
I like Jackson and Grayson, but he has vetoed those. He likes Brandon and I've nixed that.

@lovehoneybee: I tried to convince DH that Leo would be a good name, after Leo McGarry. It didn't work though!

Dean or Wyatt. Dean would've been the name of our first child if it had been a boy but DH is over that name now

@Meridian: My coworkers husband is name Sebastian I love it! I've heard the nickname Zeb/Zebby used for him.
Our pick was William Thomas nn Liam - Hubs Grandfather/my grandfather and brother
Still holding onto that one for next time

@BananaPancakes: Thanks! I love it too, but DH doesn't. He doesn't think we should use it since we aren't Scandinavian, but I don't think that really matters.

So many great names!
Right now, I'd pick Harry James. Maybe Henry James. But baby's last name will be Jones, so I'm not sure if I like James right next to Jones...
