Not that we are in any way ttc but my boyfriend and I did start talking about baby names the other night.  I have had my names picked out since pretty much forever, and I'm kind of stuck on them.  I would love to have 5 kids so I have my main 4, plus a backup for each sex...
Claire Margaret
Audrey Elena
William Richard
Henry Stephen
Bridget/Eleanor Francesca
Robert Nicholas

My boyfriend says those names are pretty, but too fancy for our kids (not really sure what that means lol).  His picks?
Lisa
Stacey
Maria
Joe
Frank

He did say that I could name them because I will go through the trials of carrying them and giving birth... but I feel kind of bad now.  We did have a good laugh about how completely different our choices are, considering we're pretty easygoing/evenly matched in like everything else!  We did, however, agree that we don't want any double names (I don't really know what they're called in English... noms composés in French, like Jean-something or Marie-something, which is super common in Quebec).

My Twin Fantasy

[cozyjeans.livejournal.com]

I’ve always had a secret fantasy about having boy/girl twins. It’s unlikely to happen, no family history and no fertility treatments here. But just because I feel like it, I came up with boy/girl twin names that I love. I hate the matchy matchy twin names, it just makes it seem like we’re trying to take away their individuality. They already have to share a birthday, why make it worse? Anyway, the names I love are Nicholas Anthony and Samantha Catherine. Our last name is one syllable and starts with S. WDYT? Who knows, maybe this round of TTC will work doubly well, and I’ll get my wish.
