Need a boy name!

I'm about 2 weeks away from my due date. I had one ultrasound at 20 weeks and the technician told me it looked like a girl. Only we didn't actually see girl parts, just the absence of boy parts. While I'm fairly certain that my baby is a girl, I'm really feeling the need to have a boy name ready just in case. I'm at a total loss. A girl name was so easy for me!

My 3 year old daughter's name is Madelyn Elizabeth. This new baby will be Caroline Grace. So that's my style. Popularity is not a huge issue with me, though I would like to stay out of the top 20 or so. I like traditional and classic names.

Any suggestions? I need help because I can't come up with anything at all!!!

The answers..

have you ever met someone with a really nice or pretty name... & they have a nickname that just does not do the name justice? or perhaps a name that you feel loses it's beauty when you break it down into smaller names or nicknames?

my friend has a son Julian, which i think is a really nice name. they almost always call him Jude or Lee. not that i particularly dislike either Jude or Lee, but i don't feel they do the name Julian justice. to me, it's one of those names that is really nice as a full name, not when you break it down into anything else :\

I took my baby cousins to 'Tick-Tock' today, which is sort of a musical playgroup type for an hour on a Weds.
Anyway, there were lots of kids there, and they said all their names in a naming game. I missed some, cause it was fast, but here are the ones i got.
The oldest I think was 4.

Charlie [Charles] - My cousin
Ella - my cousin
Ned
Dominic
Sophie
Emily
Dylan
Isabelle
Oliver
Louis
Timmy
Rachael
Tilly

Obviously I'm not sure of the spellings, but those were the names!
And I'm in Wales.
So what do you think?

wdyt?

Birth Announcements from the newspaper:

Boys:
Tanner Robert Kenneth
Curtis Ryler
Derek Daniel James
Furtis Lee

Girls:
Jayden D'yani Antonia
Alexis Faith

Yeah..I don't know. Is Furtis a name?
Alexis Faith is nice. And Derek, Daniel and James are all good names

more games, because who doesn't love a game to kill some time!

[politicking.livejournal.com]

for each category, come up with a male AND female name... not necessarily a sib-set, so if the names don't sound good together, don't sweat it.

1) one of the names must be a name that is traditionally a surname, other your choice.
2) first and middle must be 'place' names (can be cities/towns/countries, or nouns).
3) first name must be something from nature, or the meaning must be something from nature. middle name your choice.
4) first name must be after a musician, middle name your choice.
5) first name must be someone in your immediate family, middle name your choice!
6) first name must be traditionally nicknames (ie: Jim instead of James, Sam instead of Samuel or Samantha), middle your choice.
7) first name must be unisex, middle your choice.
8) one of the names must be a surname from your family (can be a maiden name, or one from generations ago), the other is your choice.

Babies in the paper this week:

Charlotte Stephanie (Cassie, Abby, Claudia)
Jonah Thomas (Chelsea)
Layla Molly (Calvin)
Levi Thomas (Milla, Indi, Reuben)
Maya Louise

I don't mind all of these names (although Calvin and Levi are a little bleh).

Milla is one of my top names, and Ruben and Indigo are names I LOVE but will probably not use.

Inspired by "Do you like any names soley for their meanings?"- 
Are there any names you like but wouldn't use because of their meanings?

For example, I like James but not it's ultimate meaning of 'supplanter'.

What do you think of the name Evelia?

I love Evie, but feel it's too nicknamey to stand on it's own.
Eva is too much like Ava, which I prefer but thanks to the overwhelming skyrocket is a nono..
Evelyn is okay, but it doesn't make me oohh and ahh.
Evangeline is just too long and reminds me of Ms Jolie.
Evelia [prn with simlar emphasis on syllables to Ophelia] has everything I look for in a name. I love the possible nicknames as much [Evie, Vivi, Lia]
It's really flouncy and feminine.
It ends in -ia.
It's not common.


The only issues I have with it are, my other favourite name is Esmé, so two E's would annoy me, like i'd started a trend or something.
I feel like it's a bit too made up- considering I'd never heard it before, kind of made it up and had to check with behindthenames.com .. turns out it's Spanish variant of Eve.

So, thoughts?

I never got around to posting this, but vote on my names. Its a very short simple list.

Name Suggestions

[traezer.livejournal.com]

I would like some name suggestions for boys.

I like names that end with l or on. (Such as Gabriel, Gavriel, Trenton, Gideon)

I also like names that start with G, T, and R.

Also, what do you guys think of the name Annalisa? I had a roommate once with that name, and she went by the whole name, never Anna or Lisa.
