just a few names i have been pondering:

girls:
tula
ruby
iris
ginevra
maya
amelia
melanie (this is boyfriend's fave, it might be growing on me)

all of the above would have my surname as the middle name.

boy:
charles (would be charlie)
oliver
william (would be will)
jackson

all of the above would have michael as the middle name

can't seem to think of more boy names that are sweet but not too "bronx mowgli"-ish.  i like classic names, especially for boys, but i don't want anything too stiff, you know? any thoughts?

tula - i like it, would be a cute nickname for tallulah, which i love.
ruby - our number one girls name! love it!
iris - very pretty.
ginerva - i think its ugly, sorry.
maya - its fine. a little plain, but cute.
amelia - classic and beautiful!
melanie - dont like it at all.

and i love all of your boys names. oliver has been my number one boys name for years and years but the man doesnt like it, so its been nixed i guess.

i am not super wild about jackson, but i adore jack (thats my mans name) so i can deal with it.

oh too bad about ginevra! my boyfriend hates it too, and it's one of my favorites. i'll save it for a future cat or something.

tula is actually an archaeological site in mexico that i always thought was really pretty. it's my top name so far.

i'm not too wild about jackson either. again, it's the boyfriend's suggestion.
