babynamesMy boyfriend and I were having a "future children" discussion this weekend and we talked about a few things.
I really would love a little boy, but I'd be happy with either of course. and he doesn't really have a preference.
We both like Owen or Jordan for a boy, but when that time comes I'm sure we'll have more names. We haven't really agreed so much on girl names. He doesn't DISLIKE the names I like, but he says that he just has no feeling either way about them.
I like: Mandalyn, Autumn, Layla, Serenity (a name he brought up but is not sure he wants to name his child that), and Ayla (ay-la, not eye-la as i've seen).
we also discussed the middle name situation. He has no middle name (he's spanish), and I do. We decided that if we come up with something awesome, we'll use it, but if not, no middle name is cool too. How do you all feel about the importance of having a middle name?

Date: 2006-03-14 03:08 pm (UTC)Owen is cool, and Jordan is not too bad but for a boy it always makes me think of Michael Jordan and the mid-1990s. I like it much better for a girl; it reminds me of the character in the Great Gatsby.

Mandolin is an instrument.
Autumn and Layla sound like stripper names to me, honestly. And Serenity reminds me of Serenity Now! or the TV show firefly. Why not Serena if you like the name Serenity? It has the same meaning and your child won't get teazed its whole life.

Serena is just AWFUL to me. I've NEVER been a fan. Serenity is so much prettier! People have made reference to the Serenity Now! stuff before, but other than this community, i've never heard of it, so i don't have that connotation. lol.
