Three things and to make it easy I'll put them in one post.
1.) I'll very likely never do it, but lately I have been thinking of the middle name Lynn for a boy. Yes I know Lynn is horrible common for a middle (or least was) and it's ushually/almost always associated with girls. Some reason I have liked for boys too. Plus it's different which is always a plus for me. However I know (sadly) a boy will be teased to death if Lynn was his first name, so I thought as a middle and I am assuming boys rarely share their middle names he won't really be teased. Lynn is also my middle name, it comes from my mother's maiden name, so it wasn't used for the filler reason :-) So Lynn for a boy middle yes or no?
2.) I am looking for a site that has been mentioned a few times here, in fact I tried to find a post with the information and clearly failled. It's the one where you enter the parent's names and it gives suggestions for names. Does anyone know the address? Pretty please and thank you in advance.
3.) This one is inspired by a question I asked my husband, we have two friends who are going to try next summer, so I asked him what how'd handle the following scenerio: Let's say you have a friend/family memeber/etc who is having a baby and for some reason you have never shared your favorite names with them (so it's not a case of "stealing" the name) and they tell you a top choice they are considering is a favorite name of yours. What do you say? Gentle suggest some other name they are thinking? Laugh about how maybe one day your kids will have the same name? Say that's nice and cross it off your list? Demand they don't use it? Something else? (btw my hubby's answer was a shrug and I can't tell what they can and can't name their kid).
