Names?

[lilprairiemutt]

Okay, Hubby and I thought we had a boys name figured out. But ow we find we are torn between Clayton and Christopher for a boys name. The middle name is going to James, we know that. Its just the first name we can't decide on. That is of course providing its a boy.

I like the name Clayton It's adorable!

 

[lilprairiemutt]

I kind of lean towards Clayton too. But Christopher is also a good name.

 

[Kase]

I like the name Christopher .

 

[Debi]

don't ask me. I love the name, Oliver. have no clue why...just LOVE that name. LOL

I say Clayton, but that's 'cause there are far too many boys named Christopher! There are 8 Christopher at my job! And my brother (christopher) has at least 2 other's named Christopher in his class almost every year!

Plus, I like Clayton better lol

 

[Kase]

don't ask me. I love the name, Oliver. have no clue why...just LOVE that name. LOL

My brother is called Oliver . Get's called Ollie for short, I think it's a nice name too.

I voted for Christopher.

Christopher. It's more...streamlined than Clayton. But then again with a name of Clayton people can just call you Clay, which is a lot better than Chris. Because when a chick talks to him Chris will be like "Yah, my nickname is Chris...it's short for Christopher" and the girl will be like "Oh..that's...interesting."

But Clay, he'll be like "Yah, my nickname is Clay. It means I'm flexible and willing to adapt to various situations, just like clay, get it?" and the chick will be like "Oh my god I love you!"

So maybe Clayton after all.

Looks like chaz can't decide either
I like the name Clayton, it sounds better with James... Clayton James ....

I love Christopher. My son is Christopher Scott.

Christopher - Means "bearing Christ", derived from Late Greek(Christos) combined with (phero) "to bear, to carry". Christopher was the legendary saint who carried the young Jesus across a river. He is the patron saint of travellers.

Wow, pretty evenly devided here. Maybe the baby will give us a break and just be born a girl,LOL. We had no trouble picking out a girl name.

 

[Aquavibe]

i'm for christopher... it sounds much better especially when he'll be called by friend 'Chris'. i can't imagine when they'll call him 'Clay' - or maybe, if he'll be hard like a rock it could work

 

[CanadianK9]

Clayton, Christopher is soooo overused its disgusting

 

[malmo]

Wow. 50/50. We're not much help, are we?

Personally I think it depends on what your last name is, though I'm sure you don't want to share.

 

[Zoom]

I chose Christopher because I think it flows nicely with James. Clayton does too, but that just seem a little "Martha Stewart-ish" for me. Hey, it's your kid though!

 

[CanadianK9]

how bout Christian? its less common?

 

[lilprairiemutt]

Either name will flow easily into our last name.

I really want a girl. I have two boys already. But if its a boy, thats okay, it will be loved just the same. Although some small creature is going to be dressed in cute pink frilly things dang it. So if it does turn out to be a boy, then poor Cleo is going to get it. I found cute little pink dog outfits and little pink dog booties at Wal Mart. I told Cleo this and she looked at me like she is really hoping I have girl.

 

[ACooper]

Christopher is used alot, but it is a nice name (could be why it's used so much, LOL)

I say get your top choices narrowed down and then look at the baby........it will come to you. Once you look at him, his name may not have even been on your list at all

 

[mrose_s]

Neither, I've known a clayton and and a christopher and neither were a good representation of the human species.
