Name my baby!!!!!!

[toodles]

DH and I are just STUCK. I know we have a long way to go but this is just really hard. I always wanted to name my son Matthew James. Not sure why...just always have. Then I met my husband and he said he liked the name James Matthew for a boy. so it seemed ideal..we were on the same page. and he agreed that Matthew James sounded better. BUT...that is his brothers name! at first I thought...who cares??? but now that I am actually pregnant, the name just isn't appealing to me for some reason. Isn't that weird????

So, we are looking for baby names. I have a feeling this will be a boy..but I could be wrong

So far the only boy name we have agreed on is Carter James (James is DH's name...and his fathers). But neither of us are stuck on it. And the only girl name we can agree on is Madison Olivia (Olivia after my grandmother...so any girl name needs to flow with that as a middle name.)

any suggestions?? we need girl and boy names. and I like names that are not on the list of most popular names in 1910. so the John, David, Michael, Sarah, Rachel, Karen names aren't what I'm going for no offense meant to anyone with those names...

My daughters name is Trinity. If that gives you any idea of what kind of names I like

Thanks for your ideas

Madison Olivia is lovely. I love the name Olivia - How about Olivia Rose, Olivia Eve,
Ava Rose, Eva Rose, Olivia Grace, Sophia Rose, Sophia Grace, I could go on and on.

What about James Matthew? I think James is a fine name - Jimmy or Jim when they're young, and then James as they get older. I love the name Christian for a boy. Chris is a great nickname too.

I'm going to have to think on this one! I have a nephew named Tanner James. That would go well with Trinity. As for Olivia.....hmmmmm.

I like Olivia - hmph!! (pretending to be insulted) Tanner is cute for a boy!

my husbands name is James and we call him Jim. it drives me NUTS because I love the name James but it seems that they are almost always called Jim and I personally can't stand that name. In fact, when dh and I were "set up" for our first date, I almost didn't go cuz I didn't like his name LOL now...if they had told me his name was James, I would have liked that hehe...he laughs about that with me

it's also funny that you throw the name "Rose" in there cuz I wanted Olivia Rose. Olivia after my granny and Rose after his mom, who passed away when he was 16. but he doesn't like either name. he's so stubborn! I told him that if we can't agree, I will just fill the paperwork out without him and he'll just have to learn to like it LOL

Jared Matthew, Jaiden Matthew, Rysten James or Matthew,

Thanks!! I love thinking up names. My mother's name was Audra. I didn't get to know my grandmother, but heard she was a very proud woman. So now, that is what that name means to me.

I use to, just for fun, would look up names on the internet and then try different ways to spell them or change them just a little to what I would like.
