Hi everyone! I have been creepy-lurking the boards for the last several months.... Hope it's ok to jump right in!
My husband and I are pregnant with our first and due in 5 short weeks. We are team green and can't seem to get any closer to choosing names. We have boy names pretty narrowed down, but are having a much harder time with girl names. Would appreciate any input or suggestions!
For Boys:
James - Husband's MN and FIL first name
Luke
Benjamin
MN would likely come from a list of family names that include:
Marion
Saxon
Francis
James - if not used as first name
For Girls:
Claire
Catherine
Julia - initially my favorite, but I have a friend who recently had a Juliette and I can't decide if they are too similar. We are not close friends - have several very close mutual friends. But, I have a strong feeling they will end up at the same very small elementary school. Am I completely over-thinking this??
Lucy - H loves, and I like too.... is it trendy?
Leah
Annette - nn Annie - This was my grandmother's name. I am named after her middle name, and the more I consider it the more sentimental attachment I feel to it. Does Annette sound too dated when she gets older if she doesn't want to be Annie??
MN: No idea!
Other names that I like but have been vetoed or are out for another reason: Eliza, Camille, Cecilia, Margaret just to give you a better idea of my taste.
