Thank everyone so much for suggesting names! I have a name for the brother now... and his name is....

Trevor James and his nickname is TJ  or Trev. 

Her name is still a bit up for dicussion... kind of. I am sure I want to use Lindsey and Jessa thing is I am not sure how to use them...

So...

Lindsey Jessa or Jessa Lindsey

The only thing making me pick one over the other is that Lindsey is a cuteish name that two drug addict parents might pick for a baby (I mean NO OFFENSE to anyone named Lindsey!) and that'd make both their middle names start with a J but I'd like to still hear some opinions. Although I do think that Jessa Lindsey seems to flow a little better.

Thanks!

Hey, yeah, I'm a Lindsay. Although my parents were indeed crazy hippies who were inspired by the Bionic Woman...
Although people often tell me Lindsay makes them think "athlete". But I wonder if that is from Lindsay Davenport.

Don't worry--I'm not offended! I can sorta see how it may be something younger parents may pick out, in a way, although when I think "cutesy" I think more Bunny or Taffy. I hope I'm not offending any Bunnys or Taffys now!
My parents smoke pot every once in a while, but thankfully never went hardcore with the drugs!

Ahaha, my name is Lindsay Julia, so personally I prefer Lindsey Jessa.. No offence but I hate it spelt Lindsey.

Yay, Boy has a name! I think TJ suits very well from the mental picture I got from the description.

Haha, I kind of like Jessa Lindsey better, but then, I might be biased. ;)

I feel like Lindsey is a more normal name and Jessa is more "cuteish," but then, I've got a cousin and a friend named Lindsay/Lindsey. I remember somewhere in the other post or a comment that you said you'd already been thinking Lindsey though, and it is your character and you've got to go with what you're feeling. :)

Oh, and just have to point out on the same middle initial idea--Lindsey Jessa would make her initials the same as LiveJournal! That amused me. ^^ TJ and LiveJournal LJ.

Yeah, I didn't think it would bother you. It can be like a secret tribute to your Livejournal lifestyle! :P

I really don't have a preference as far as combinations go, but I am absolutely in love with the name Jessa. Actually, I have a RP character named Jessa Lynn. Which is cute, until you imagine it being slurred by something with a Southern accent. Jezuhlin. Ick. But so much love for Jessa!

Sorry, being a Jessica, I have a repulsion for Jessa :/
I'll admit that paired with Lindsey (either way) it makes an interesting combination.

I prefer Jessa Lindsey, between the two.

i think jessa lindsey sounds a lot better than lindsey jessa.
trevor james is nice too, but i don't get why you'd ever call him tj. i never understood why people did that..especially when the first name itself is nice.

I love Jessa. One of the only names the Duggars got right. And for that reason I vote for Jessa Lindsey.

I agree that TJ suits the character.
