Hi I just joined and thought I'd put my names
out there.

I'm having a little tyke, don't know the gender yet
(just entered my second trimester)
but as alot of people I'm hoping beyond reason for
a girl. But to put it in the best words:
I will be the most gracious for a healthy baby. ♥

The girl's name I am stuck with and won't change:
London Bren

The boy's name I haven't found one to stick with:

Paul- after my Uncle Paul who has recently passed

Alejandro (said Al-ah-hand-ro)- My boyfriend (baby's
daddy) likes this name, but I'm just throwing it out there.
I'm not to sure, because I wouldn't be able to yell that. ;)

That is about it. I know..not at all good chosing. I would
appreciate some input and ideas(if, of course, you don't mind
me stealing them)

The tough thing is these children are going to need to know
how to spell. Their last name is: Echternacht-Sunsera. Echternacht
being my boyfriend's last name, and Sunsera mine. I'm single
not at all close to being engaged, and I want my children
to have the best of both parents. ♥

I love the name Paul. I actually have an Uncle Paul on both sides, oddly enough. I'm not too sure about it with your last name, though. I do agree that you'd want a rather simple first name in order to go with your last, but a one-syllable first name might seem a little odd when paired with what I'm assuming is a six-syllable last name. I might try to go for a two syllable last name. I think London works for this reason.

Yes I agree. Too short of a first
name will make the last name seem like
a history book. ;)

I'm going on the theme to have
the boy's middle name Paul.
Just like the girl's name has a
one syllable middle name.

And you are correct on six syllable
last name. It will be hard to say
for the child..I know.
And the crazy thing is that is not
the boyfriend's true last name.
His last name is hyphened also:
Echternacht-Taylor. Taylor being
his father's last name. But the Taylor
side of the family disowned the Echternacht-
and in honor of his mother I'm keeping
the side he treasures the most.
