On an initial pass, here are my thoughts...clearly as someone who has kids' names that are not quite common, I always lean towards the less used names. That being said, it's hard to have an idea of which cool sounding names are being overused all of a sudden or have become too common until you actually start taking your kids to the nursery at church, or mother's day out, or school, and you start to hear all of the other names that are out there these days. You're kind of in a name vacuum until you get your kid around all the other kids. To that end, and now being around a ton of other rugrats, there are some names on your list that there are now WAY too many of out there....
ReplyDeleteGIRLS - Madison, Ella, Riley
BOYS - Kyle, Conner, Brendon, Carson, Caleb, Logan, Ethan, Dillon, Bryce
So steer clear of those especially or they will always have to have a last initial next to their name tag in class, because there will be multiple kids with their name.
I like the name Jack and Jill. Also like Sam and Edison. Love Sadie.
ReplyDeleteMom
I am kind of partial to Kennan as well Mai.
ReplyDeleteYou two and I have very similar tastes in names!! Many of your names were on my lists. Here's my vote,
ReplyDeleteBoy....DECLAN. I love that name.
Girl....i'm gonna go out on a limb here because I had Fynn for a girl so i choose Fynn.
Diana will weigh in later. She's working.
:-)
Girl.....Sydney and Ella
ReplyDeleteBecky, did you know that our Sydney's middle name is Ella? Weird huh?
Boy... Liam
Girls-Ella and Kate
ReplyDeleteBoys-Finley (Fynn) and Ethan
Girl and Boy-Finley (Fynn) and Megan (Meg)
Just feeling that today, may change tomorrow. Gotta say, there are some that HAVE TO GO...past student names, etc that will not flow off my lips easily....we will discuss later! :-)
Of course you could go silly like Cash and Carry or Lint and Brush. Fysh and Chip. Bubble and Squeek. Luz and Cannon. Cherry and Bomb. You get the picture. :-))
ReplyDeleteWell, there are always names like Lafonda too! =)
ReplyDeleteDanica...you are so funny! What about Shaniqua? Shanana? LaQuan?
ReplyDeleteIs that pronounced Sha-nay-nay?
ReplyDeleteDear Sean & Becky: Dad & I picked some favorites..... Dad picked Madison & Sydney for girls & I picked Madison, Alison, Allison, Elle, Megan & Jill... Dad picked Caleb, Logan & Grant & I picked Conner, Colin, Elliot, & Everett...
ReplyDeleteHi Sean and Becky!!!
ReplyDeleteWe are so happy for you both.....Shane and I always knew there would be twins in the future for you! We both like Madison and Riley for girls and Gavin and Grayson for boys!! All four names flow no matter how you switch it up and also go well with your last name too. Lean towards picking names they will apreciate when they get older~ thats a biggy.... Hahaha!! Congrats!!!

Hi Sean & Becky, I am so happy for you both. Life is just beginning! There are so many great names, you sure don't make this easy. For me I have always picked names that have a certain meaning in my life. I really like the name Riley (Courageous), Quinn (Intelligent), Evelyn (wished/longed for), Paige (Young). Take care & keep faith!!
ReplyDeleteLove you
We are sp happy to read all your responses. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us.
ReplyDeletePam and Bob,
I may need to remove those names in honor of you two!
Cheers!
Does Sadie sound too much like a name for a dog?
ReplyDeleteConversely, Milo as a cat? I instantly thought of my favorite book as a child, The Phantom Tollbooth. That story was fascinating to me in fourth grade. Anyway, enough babbling, I have chapter 2 of my thesis to write! Warm Regards!
ReplyDeleteElle and Fynn are my choices
ReplyDeletemike & steph here....we are so excited for you guys!!!
ReplyDeleteso here's my (steph's) vote....
boys: fynn*, miles, grayson
girls: sydney*, emma, ella, ellie
*favorite!!
if you have 2 boys: fynn & miles
if you have 2 girls: sydney & emma
if you have 1 boy/1 girl: fynn & sydney
I LOVE LOVE LOVE fynn!
i like it when people that have multiples go with two different types of names. when they go for 2 that sound the same or start with the same letter...i think that's too generic. =)
