in search of a first name to go with james...

[twister-pants.livejournal.com]

Okay, my friend's baby is going to be named ____ James Albright.  The middle name is set because it's the dad's first name and he wanted to at least have James as the middle name if the mom wasn't okay with Jimmy Jr. lol.  So any suggestions for a first name?  She's looking for something different, but more 'normal' than some of the crazy names coming out lately haha.  Something like Micah is cool, but not something like Seanathon haha.

P.S. At her last sonogram, she found out that the baby has a hole in his heart and will need open heart surgery as soon as he's born.  The hole can close on its own before then, so we're all praying it does.  If you pray, would you please pray for him? Thank you!  She's been trying to have a baby for 11 years :( Not that it wouldn't be as bad if she hadn't been trying for so long, it's just that this is really hard on them after everything they've been through.  Thanks again.

my best friend's daughter had to have open heart to fix two holes. it's such a common thing now that there really arent that many risks associated with the surgery. :) your friend's bb will be fine, but I will pray for him nonetheless.

The baby will be fine, I'm sure. We'll all pray for him.

As for names... Oliver, Daniel, William, Arthur, Conner, Richard, Ryan, Lawrence, Damon, Clark, Michael, Dylan, Elliot. I'll think of more later.

I like Micah, and following from your suggestion I can only think of biblical names like:

Jarod
Reuben
Tobias
Judah
Jonas

I hope his heart heals before he is born and that all goes well with the birth.

I hope that everything goes alright for your friend's baby!

It's not very different, but I would suggest Robert (my brother is Robert James). :)

Well hi there!

I'll give you my favorites
Aaron, Nathanial, Joshua (don't know if i like the alliteration this one would cause though), and Zachary (i went on a bible craze with those)

And i have always really liked Micah. It's unique enough without being crazy.

I know i have more but i can't remember at the moment..
I'll be back
:-)
