I was obsessed with thinking of names until I really had to choose just ONE! Lol. I hear you hbanana18 (how do we tag over here?). Nobody in our families believed us that we didn't have a name picked out, mostly because we also told them we were waiting until baby's arrival to reveal anyway. Everybody knows it's a boy and the date (most likely) since I'm scheduled for an RCS so have to leave something for a surprise! ? I had one name I loved and was set on. DH didn't like it so much and we agreed on two other names. Pretty sure we've picked the one out of those two except my 2 y/o DS likes the other name, of course.
daydreamernyc that's a great list! Do you have a favorite out of those? I like them all I one way or another, but like Madison, Olivia, Avery, Kiera and Hailey best. I think Lilian and Sophie are over done, unless they're family names. Just my opinion though.

You tagged me correctly mrswillie - it doesn't come up with usernames while typing like TD but it notified me! It's very hard to barrow down - I am hoping when we meet her, one will just seem *right*

We have pretty much decided on Reed Alan for this little one. Both names have significant meaning/family connection for me. For those of you who have already announced your name choices, do you find that people still feel like they can comment? I'm not afraid of changing my mind at this point, but I am nervous about having to listen to what others think.
I find when we say they are family names and mention being named after my Dad, there's really nothing anyone can say without looking like a total ass. But asses do exist I suppose:)

mrswillie I do. I love Sophie but I'm afraid it's too popular. I love Avery but there is a cousin in the family that was born about 2 years ago with that name on DH's side. In 2 years we have yet to meet the baby (really like a step cousin) but DH is still not fully comfortable with it. That's the one name that he liked on my list.
DH is a flat no to Madison (or Madeline which is kind of similar). I have the same reaction to Kiera. I feel like it's a name that you would have trouble pronouncing. Isn't it wierd how you have aversions to names that you can't quite explain why??
I really like Olivia. Do you think it's too common? I also love Oliver as a boys name.
Hailey is on DHs list, I'm considering that one. Not sure how I feel about it just yet.

We're team green, in the third tri and still haven't 100% decided on names. I like something for awhile, but I just can't commit!
I loved Benjamin Cedric, but then I realized Benjamin is getting super popular and I'm not into that. I don't know if I can really love Cedric as a first name but that's the only contender we have now
For the girls I thought I was settled on Amelia but again, I'm realizing it's way more popular than I thought! At first it didn't bother me but I just keep falling out of love with these names after hearing them all over the place. Same thing with my past girl favorites of Alice, Nora, and Gabriella.
