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?

Patronizing, sure. But I don't see that as being harsh.
Her kid is going to be asked over and over again if he's Jewish if she chooses that name.

I don't really see that as being a problem. I mean if someone asks him if he is Jewish all he has to say is "no" and it is over. Cohen is not just a Jewish name why would anyone care if someone uses it?

Lol what?
like Jesus is not only a christian name?

lol I agree! How is Cohen anything but a Jewish name?!?!

cohen IS a jewish last name, but i wouldn't assume someone was jewish just because their first name was cohen. to me, that's completely different. most people have first names with origins that have nothing to do with their ethnicities, religions, etc.

Where's the sassy solidarity?

Thank you so much! IAWTC. There's way too many names out there that have religious attachments, and I'm sure the people that name their children Jesus, Deacon, etc are not doing it to be offensive.

And for the real - all he would have to say is "no"...
