My husband and I are officially trying to get pregnant. That being said... I've finally been able to coax him to talk about names that he likes now that there is a reason. :P

He thought of, for a boy, Andy Andrew C***. It is his paternal grandfathers name. Both Andy, Andrew, and the combination of the two are traditional in his family. Hubbys middle name is Andrew and his brothers first name is Andy, additionally.

We like the name of his maternal grandmother (she passed when he was around three) so, although not along the lines of our usual tastes, it holds great signifigance and meaning. That would be Grace. The only real conflict is that our niece is also named Grace.

My mother-in-law will probably flip if we don't name him or her something semi-normal so I guess I have to keep that in mind. :P

Having chosen names for my kids that my MIL and mom dislike I can easily say it's only a problem initially. They get used to the names and then it's a non issue. It helps if the name has a nickname that they don't hate as much:P

My mom HATED the names and first and my MIL thought they were weird. I basically told them my kid, I get to choose the names. If you want to name a baby have another kid.
