[identity profile] fleckerbug.livejournal.com posting in [community profile] babynames
Hi. :) I think I've posted some of 'my' names here before, but don't think I've posted all of them. My new husband and I are officially TTC now, so have been discussing names in earnest. Please tell me what you think and if you have any further ideas based on what you see we like. Some of these are hold-overs from when we were naming our first child 5 years ago and we're not quite as enamored of them as we once were; I've put them in order of preference.

We plan on keeping our childrens' names secret from family and friends until they are born. It's good to be able to talk about them online, though. ;) And I know we're being silly, but we're keeping our #1 girl name secret until we're pregnant and know it's a girl.

If it helps, I think our children have a very high chance of having bright to dark red hair and brown eyes, possibly blue or hazel eyes and very pale skin, possibly freckled (going by what I've seen in our families and what our daughter looked like). We plan on having 2-4 more children.
Our daughter's name was Brenna Rose (two first names).

Girls:
*secret first name* Esme
Prism Alice-- my husband's favorite; I came up with Prism as a joke and then really liked it-- I don't like it quite as much as I did at first, largely because people tell me it's too weird, lol, but my husband absolutely loves it and we'll probably end up using it if we have two more daughters.
Eliza Grace
Lily Grace
Lily Rose-- I don't know how I feel about reusing rose, but my husband thinks it might be a sweet homage to our daughter.
Elizabeth Catrine/catherine
Edith Catrine
Gemma Grace
Violet*
Jane*
Antalya*
Sioneva*
Feylin*
Taigan*


Boys
Jonah Edward
Uilliam Edward (nn Liam)
Liam Edward
Patrick Anthony/Anthony Patrick (after my two closest maternal uncles-- Patrick is deceased; nickname, if we use one, Pat, Paddy, or Andy)
Albert Edward IV (nn either Edward or Ward; husband goes by Ted and father-in-law by Albert)



*= names I haven't thought through much, but rather fancy.

*edit*-- Just to let you all know, I'm not trying to be Eun33k-- Antalya, Sioneva, Feylin, and Taigan are just all literary names that I like.. probably too unusual for me to actually ever use.
