Ok, I need help here.

We are finally pregnant after 2 years of trying, and now we can't agree on names at all!

We have already chosen Trinity Elisabeth for a girl. However, I'm not a huge fan of Trinity, and my husband always makes fun of Elisabeth (because of the way I choose to spell it) by pronouncing it "Eliza Beth". I'm giving up and giving him Trinity. He loves the name, and there is no talking him out of it. However, I am trying to come up with a better middle name that he can't butcher. Some of my favorite girl names are: Scarlet, Olivia, and Ruby. Any suggetions for a middle name?

Now the boy names..

My husband is adamant that the middle name be Stephen, to which I agree (It was his brother's name, and he passed away when my husband was very young). Now, remember that I've already given in on Trinity and Stephen, and I love the name Lennon. For awhile he let me use it as "the working name" but after a phone call with his mother he said that he didn't like it at all. I'm really quite downtrodden about this because I've done a lot of compromising on my end as far as names go. My husband wants to stop talking about it until we know the sex (which is still 9-10 weeks away), but I can't stop trying to figure out a name. I had finally come up with one we both liked, Parker, and then his mother pointed out that when he wrote his name last-name-first it would be Dodge, Parker. It made me hate it.

So, I'm open for suggetions here. I'm not a fan of "normal" names such as John, Michael, etc. My name is Renda and I've always liked the uniqueness of my name.

Trinity ___________ Dodge
___________ Stephen Dodge


Thanks so much!

trinity is an awful name, in my opinion. its to this decade what crystal was in the 80s. blech.

the names you have picked out are gorgeous, and i love the spelling of elisabeth with an s, but i understand that some compromising needs to be done. ruby, scarlett and olivia are all gorgeous names, popular (olivia) or not, and can sound great with trinity as a middle name. save it for the middle name, please.
