My mother-in-law has convinced my husband that we should have at least three names for each sex picked out when we head to L and D in November. So far, we're still only in the planning stages although we have settled on two definites: Meredith will be the girl's middle name (after my grandmother's maiden name) and some aspect of William will be incorporated into the boy's name (after my grandfather, greatgrandfather and uncle--there's no son to really carry on this "traditional" family name so we decided to take up the mantle). Our choices so far are (in order of preference):

Boys (2): Gracian William Parker, Liam Connor Parker. I prefer Gracian because I feel like it is more original but Liam is also something I would love to use to because of familial significance.

Girls (3): Cordelia Meredith Parker, Aurelia Meredith Parker, Annabella Meredith Parker. My favorite name is Annabella, *but* a coworker of both mine and my husband's named their daughter Annabella (she's now four). I had no idea what his daughter's name was until I was suggesting name choices at work, but now my husband believes it would be in bad taste to name her Annabella. What do you think?

When I read Gracian William Parker, I fell in love with it. lol I'd definately go with that. Liam is a bit popular, but not too popular, ya know?

I like Annabeled Meredith, too. So what if someone has a daughter with that name? It's cute, though. I don't think it'd leave a bad taste to name her that. Unless the coworker is really dirty and not worth naming you kid after theirs.
