Maiden names

[drunkontea.livejournal.com]

Hope this is on topic, but to those who are married, how did you decide whether to keep your maiden name or take your husband's?

My boyfriend and I have talked about this, and while I like my last name, I'd want to take his on also, but our last names sound awful when we combine them. We were thinking of giving our first born's middle name as my last name, but that takes away the fun of playing with first name/middle name combinations.

What do you think of the name Ryan for a girl?


I really like more masculine/unisex names for girls. I also like James/Jamie. What are some of your fav masculine girls names?

I CANNOT for the life of me agree with my husband on a name for one of our twin boys. I look through books but for some reason my mind just goes blank within two pages. Thank you, pregnancy, haha. I'm just getting rather nervous, because I've come up with tons of names I'll even settle for and he dislikes him. The last one being Elliot, which he didn't like.

I'm sure you're all sick of me, but I'm at my wits end. I don't have any person in my life who is as interested in baby names as I am. I get the "Caleb, Kaiden, Aiden" suggestions usually which isn't my style.

I'm just wanting a nice male name that isn't super popular. I really don't want my kid's to share their name with three other children in their class. So, I'm up for any suggestions or names that appeal to you. I'm open to anything. :)

For reference, one of the twin's is Anders Joseph. Our last name is Dealy, pronounced Daily.

I know you probably hate me about now. lol I need to find baby name friends in my area.

I have chosen the names!!!

A sort of questionnaire....

What are your favorite names -- boy and girl -- from the following nationalities?

Greek
German
Hebrew
French
Russian
Welsh

Again, I'm on bed rest with the trips, and am needing some excitement. We're still looking for middle names (first names are going to be Eleanor, Amelia, and Henry), and the above six nationalites are favorites for names among the hubby and I. We like to have a sort of "mixing pot" when he comes home from work everyday, where we discuss different options, and I'd like to have some fresh ideas to throw out for tomorrow's.  =]

Natalia

What's your favourite middle name for Natalia? I've just written down a few that I like and was wondering what you all thought of them. I think they are all very pretty but need to narrow down the field a bit :P
