My names!

[sealedwithmyhug.livejournal.com]

My husband and I are going to try for a baby next week. :)

We have already discussed names. I am a name freak and have names for EVERYTHING. Anyway, what do you think of my two names for a boy and a girl.

Rivers Qi (pronounced KEY)
or
Landon Milo

My husband does not like Landon, but if I have to carry the baby and it ends up being a boy, I am not giving in with Landon, lol, especially since he has thrown out every other boy name, gr.

Opinions are welcome. :)

Neither of those are my style. Rivers is ok, but I've only heard it used for boys (e.g. Rivers Cuomo from Weezer), and Qi... I don't get it. Landon Milo is better, but I've only heard Landon for a girl.

Landon for a girl? I've never heard Landon as a girl's name. There was a male Landon on MTV's The Real World last season.. and one of my friend's just named his son Landon.

I like River for a boy, but not Rivers on a girl. It just seems so masculine. Qi is cool. Never heard it before. Landon Milo is really cute.

i've always liked the name 'river' for a girl and every1 else thot i was nuts... i like them both!

Me too. And me too, actually. And then Joss Whedon used it for a character on Firefly and suddenly it became an "acceptable" name for a girl. Go figure.

Landon Milo is nice. It's a little bit hick/cowboy/country sounding to me which isn't really my thing, but that's mostly a personal assoiation.

Rivers Qi... I don't know. It's pretty unusual so it's hard to say. There's a popular restaurant where I live called Rivers, so it really just sounds like that to me. Just River seems masculine mainly due to River Phoenix. There's no reason a nature name can't be unisex though. I personally prefer the name Rio (Spanish for river) to the English River. I used to know a beautiful little girl by the name. And then there's the Duran Duran song. But I think it sounds nice on a boy too.

Qi is a stumper in both pronunciation and origin for me. I'm sure it has some meaning to you though, so whatever.

I like "River" fine, "Rivers" sounds masculine to me for some reason.
Not nuts about Landon, but don't hate it either.
Good luck with making the little one!

Landon Milo is ok for a boy, but I don't care for Rivers Qi at all.

I was thinking earlier about a kid that got named Landon, and how I don't really care for it or like it, but it seems to be getting popular. Rivers..not so much. Qi I guess could be a cute middle name, if it means what I think.

Umm so where's the girls name then?
Seriously those are both all boy to me.

I love the name River, though for some reason am not so keen on Rivers.
Qi is cute as a mn.

Landon Milo is a cute combo, sort of 'cowboy' in a good way.

I like River ... Qi is nice, but im not sure about them together. (It reminds me of River Quay), Landon is a good one too.
