Looking for suggestions--L Names for Boys

[gatta-melata.livejournal.com]

This community is much too fun!! I've wasted so much time now going through old entries looking for names--I shouldn't say wasted, because it's been very helpful.

This is my dilemma. Another three weeks till we find out boy or girl, so no rush, but I'm happily obsessing. :) For a while I was convinced I was having a girl, and I still may be. But my husband is sure it's a boy--because a) we can't settle on a boy's name, and b) my sister in law is due with a boy a month and a half before us, so we'll get no hand me downs if it's a boy :) I'll of course be very happy either way!
But while I have girl's names so ready to go, no worries on that front, boys names have proven much harder.

I really want the name (or the nn) to begin with an L. At first I was going to go with Alexander, with the nickname Lex, but I'm waffling on that because one of my best friend's named her son Alexander (she stole it! :P :) and also because well--Lex has very specific meaning to me, almost too specific, and so I think I want something similar but fresh and new too.

Looking through all the entries here, we've come up with a couple other possibilities, but I'd love any other suggestions you have (and/or opinions favorites out of this list)

So our ideas are:

Lucien (nn Luca)
Lev

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Hi I am new here. I am 29 weeks and 3 days and from Perth Western Austalia.
I am expecting twin girls in on the 21st May 2006. We have two names picked out one I picked which is Lilia and my partner picked Escher. I have to admitt though I am not the biggest fan of the name Escher I know its the last name of a male artist but I still can't shake the male connatations. That and I really like Lilia a lot more and feel like I am already playing favourites because I don't like Escher as much (I know thats silly)

So anyway hello *waves* maybe you can help me with an alternative name that my partner and I will both like. I suggested Juliet but he doesn't like that, Sadie, Gwen etc and it took me months to convince him on Lilia!

Edit due on the 21st May 2007! sorry baby brain (I guess I really didn't wanna let them out LOL)

oh my....

my fiance ran across this name in a blog while searching for baby name websites today. what do you all think?

Urhines Kendall Icy Eight Special K

i myself think it's rather cruel and i'm not sure if K is the last initial or the parents just really like cat tranquilizers. did they really have to to put "special k" in the name?

here's a link to the birth announcement.
