I'm 36 weeks pregnant with a little boy and STILL have not settled on a name. I often browse this community for inspiration and decided it was time to join and make a decision... or at least try to make one. If all else fails I'm waiting until I see my son and I'm hoping he will look like a name. My fiance would really like the middle name to be "Cade". For a while we were fairly certain we wanted to name him "Rowan", but neither of us were absolutely sure or in love with the name. Then recently I read the name "Cannon" and I came to really like it. I know it's a piece of artillery, but if you just think of it as a name and not a noun, I think it's a great boy's name. I just don't know if it would be one of those names that people would hear and say, "Oh my God! I can't believe she named her son CANNON! Poor kid!". I've known people with noun names and I think after you've known them for a while you forget that their name has another meaning. I used to know a "Gypsy" and now whenever I hear the word I think of her and not of an actual Gypsy.

Sooo.. any feedback or suggestions would be great! Thanks in advance :)

I really don't like Cade, and I don't like Cannon. I've got no problem with noun names, I just don't like the sound of Cannon, or the way it looks, to be honest.

I love Rowan though, and Gypsy's been a favourite of mine for years.
