for a girl I like Riley, Or Cassie, I also kind of like Helen... that was my great grandmothers name and is not a name you hear very often anymore. Middle name... i dont know. Hannah got my middle name which is also my grandmothers middle name... so I need to find out what Brians mothers or grandmothers middle names were. I want the next ones middle name to be a passed down name too.


boys...well our names keep getting stolen lol...we liked Caleb and Lucas but now we have one of each in the family lol. I like Jacob, Evan, and I kind of like Austin too. Middle name would be David after Brians dad... or maybe Arthur after my grandfather. It would be after my dad's name but my dad's name is also Brian and there are just FAR to many "Brian" n ames in this family lol

I like Cassie as well. I think its really cute. Allison is another one I like, but that name is becoming more and more popular. And I hate it when so many names are stolen, I went through a lot of names while trying to name Madison.

Well, I liked the classic names for boys and used all family names. I have a John, a Richard George, and a William Jeffrey. The girls are also named after family except the first one Rachel Anne. The other two are Meredith Marie and Elinora Jane. I was pretty dubious aboput Richard and Elinora, but they have turned out really well as names. Richard goes by Ricky and Elinora is either Eli, or uses the whole thing Elinora Jane, because she likes the sound of it.

i think another girl would have been Claudia, after my husband's granfather Claude. A boy, I don't know. My family is Czech and we are down to names like Emil. Steve jokingly suggested Emil Burress ( another family name) and said we could call the kid Eb. I also like my Uncle Milo's name, but he died a horrible death very young so....

I do ;)

My favorite girl's name is Rylie, however, it's already taken ;) After that I like the name Marlie, which is probably what name we'll end up going with. I also like the name Summer for a girl as well. I would probably go with the middle name Rae with either of them.

My favorite boy's names are Liam and Aiden. Not sure of a middle name though. Boys names are much harder than girls names for me for some reason.

Social Security puts out a yearly list of the most popular names:

http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/

I'm definitely going to make sure whatever name I choose is not on that list... or at least not at the top of that list. My parents named me Jessica in the 1980's, and I always had at least one other Jessica in my class growing up. I ended up using the name Jessie for that reason.

Marlie isn't even in the top 1000 names, and my other choices are decently far away on that list as well.

:D It's interesting that we have similar tastes
I liked the name Madison, too, but I named a puppy that when I lived at home still
Yeah, I never thought I would come across someone who like the name Gage from the horror movie. I just thought I was weird. lol.

I dont have much of a idea. Ryan and I always say first born if we have kids will be named Rylee. Ry for Ryan and Lee for lisa (my name) so its a mix of both of our names lol. we are lame and other wise dont have any names, not like we speak much of having children. house is first, one thing at a time.

Ask us our dogs names and we can tell you lol

My husband seems to think that we need to name our child (when we have one, and ONLY ONE, NOT ANYTIME SOON) either Addison Clark or Clark Addison, after the intersection of two VERY VERY important streets in Chicago.

He is MILDLY obsessive about the Chicago Cubs. Like a tattoo and everything.

I don't really have first names picked out, but I do have a middle name I plan on using, a mixture of the three most influential women in my life, my mom, aunt and my grandmother.

But like I said, I don't plan on joining any mommy-to-be clubs any time soon. The dogs are my children, and I've got plans.

Girls:

Katie (Might make it "full" and go with Katelyn).

Hannah (After one of my first dogs).

Bradley (After a dog lol)

And Harrison (After a dog) lol. They were just such wonderful things that happened in my life I want to commemorate their lives by naming my kids after them.

I think I might make a middle name Zen. Can't decide. Bradley Zen, Harrison Zen....still thinking. Granted I have time to think about it cause I don't plan on kids ever if not for many more years! :)

I don't even want kids really and I've got the names picked, if I get to 40 and still no kids, then these names will transfer over to the next few animals I get that they suit lol.
I know I will never have this many kids but I love these names

Girls
Sadie
Matilda
Bernadette
Gabby
Marilyn
(also love Margot but I think its too close to my name)

Her middle name will be Christine or Christina after my mother.


Boys.
Sebastian
Seth
Elias
