Good Afternoon Everyone!

My lovely husband and I just got the exciting news we will be expecting in January...time to start seriously considering names...

Boys:
Cohen Nash
Hudson
Reynolds
Maddox


Girls:
Matilda Ryan
Marley Ryan
Madeline
Evie


I'm struggling with middle names, if you can't tell. I'm debating using Olive, after Abigail Breslin's character in 'Little Miss Sunshine' as a middle name for Evie...Evie Olive. Not too sure how it sounds...

Suggestions? Comments? Hate mail?

Another Madeline? I am so tapping this for fastest-rising name between the 2007 and 2008 chart. Christ on a cracker.

You should see how long it took just to get my husband to agree on those names.

Zero suggestions, yet every other name I've come up with is terrible.

You're not the first woman to say this. If he makes zero suggestions, he's allowed zero vetoes. Give him a large baby name book and tell him he's required to pick ten. And you can make a limited list of ten, too.

And then work from there.

But if you continue to allow him to negate negate negate without creating, how is that going to help you out, in the end? Make it clear his input isn't optional — not unless he wants his veto power to be optional, too!

I'm just going to print out your comment, and hand it to him, along with the baby name book.

aquilium says so.

Happy to help! Stern ol' LJ lady, fightin' for your rights!
