my friend is having a baby... so we are looking at names...

if it is a boy she is going to name him
Alan Grant... (actually she wishes... she loves that name but she knows that she shouldn't because of the Jurassic Park)
she is really going to name him
Adam Levi

if it is a girl she is going to name her
Leah Isobel

so of course this got me thinking of name that i would name my kids... duh... haha.

lately i have had an obsession with pairing president's last names for my boy middle names... i know it is weird... but i like it...  though i feel like my kids are going to hate me for it... haha

boys:
Wesley Truman
Ioan Hayes
Jonah Pierce
James Reagan
Harrison Monroe

girls:
Lily Alice
Robin Grey (Grey is a family name)
Rosalie Alenka (Alenka is Polish and I am Polish... haha...)
Ivy Helena
Quincy Fallon (another family name - the Quincy part... they called her Quinn)

but yeah... the boys are going to hate me and the girls will think they were from a garden... hahaha

I like Alan Grant a lot. I don't think it'd matter that much. I'm not a fan of Adam Levi. I don't think they flow well together. I don't really like Leah Isobel either for the same reason.

I don't think there's anything wrong with using President's as a theme for middle names. It might even be cool. Just be careful which ones you name them other, lol. Wesley Truman is nice. I don't like Ioan but I like Ian. I also like Quincy Fallon.

I have loved the name Adam since I was 14.

I love your friend's naming style. Leah Isobel is absolutely beautiful, and I also like Alan Grant and Adam Levi.

Of your names, I love Harrison Monroe, Lily Alice and Robin Grey. They're great.

I like Alan Grant just a bit more than Adam Levi. I love Isobel and Leah is nice but I have a friend by that name and.... long story... I could never use it.

Your naming style took me a minute but it as grwon on me =)

Ioan Hayes is totally cute! Wesley Truman is also very cute and I like Harrison Monroe for reasons you might not... but it's nice.

From the girls I must admit I am a sucker for garden names myself and I really like Lily Alice and Ivy Helena. So much love foer those names. I also like Robin Grey but Grey is the name of our cat that gives me crazy allergies so could never ever use it. I love the sound of Alenka and Quincy!

I love both of her choices. And I think Adam Levi is way nicer than Alan Grant.

I like Alan Grant. I don't think the Jurassic Park reference is that obvious, and I love Jurassic Park! I like Adam Levi too, though. And Leah Isobel is really nice. Your friend has good taste!

For the names you listed, I like Lily Alice, Rosalie Alenka, and Ivy Helena. I'd like James Reagan, but I can't separate Reagan from the president.

I like your friend's taste in names! They're all really nice.

Of yours:
Wesley Truman
Jonah Pierce
James
Lily Alice (LOVE)
Robin Grey
Rosalie
Ivy Helena

with Harrison, I think you need to either give the kid a first name that actually IS a first name or pick something else as a middle, because Harrison is also a president's last name and the poor kid will have THREE last names.

I hate Reagan because of the president himself -- ugh. WHY do people name their children that???

Before I saw it was under "Girls" I actually thought Robin Grey would make a good boy's name. XD; But it works for a girl. I like the rest of your names, especially Quinn.

Adam Levi is. She could go Alan Levi or Adam Grant, sneak in the JP ref. ;)

I don't understand the Alan Grant thing, so that's a plus?
