Oscar's gonna have a buddy in september!! his buddy needs a NAME!!

[pickleshmickle.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone,

I am currently pregnant with #2, we weren't expecting this at all, but i mean, who is??  anyway, i have a son Oscar Owen B.  he was going to be our only kid.  we didn't want anymore.  i got pregnant with my IUD in.  yes, i was that 0.1%.

anyway, my SO and i are trying to come up with names that go with oscar, and we have a lot of time to go (i'm nine weeks along) but we just can't seem to agree on ANYTHING.

my SO really likes Matilda but i'm not to keen on it, seems like, with celebrity baby status and all that it might become a bit trendy, but i could be way way wrong, i'm just super picky right now.

anyway, do you have any suggestions of a girl and/or boy's name that goes with Oscar Owen (my last name) B.??  i would like to bring more suggestions to the table too!!  especially since my SO scared the beejesus out of me last night by ALSO suggesting Paisley.

Oh man, this is going to be a long seven more months!!

oscar goes well with meyer :P

im kidding. im sorry, i had to. do you want another name that you don't hear much or a more common one?

[pickleshmickle.livejournal.com]

ones that you don't hear to often. we tend to lean towards more old-fashioned names.

oh and don't worry, we get that a lot!!

[lovequote.livejournal.com]

yeah, i hear you. im dead-set on having my daughters name be Norah. i just have to convince my hubby.

[starsinthesnow.livejournal.com]

First of all, icon love! <3

I'm struggling with names for my bump too, for the same reasons pretty much. I love Oscar Owen though, that's a great name :) x

[pickleshmickle.livejournal.com]

ohhh i love martin freeman!

and you know what? we have to do all the crap in this lil ordeal, we should get to name them whatever the hell we want to! to hell with the SOs!!

[prlsb4swiine.livejournal.com]

lol. i love your philosophy <3

[princessleah162.livejournal.com]

I do think Matilda is a really pretty name despite the celebrity baby status.

I hope you quickly squashed Paisley. That name is not good.

[pickleshmickle.livejournal.com]

oh i definetely did, this happened also with oscar, i woke up one morning (after my SO had stayed up really late drinking beer) and there was this name list on the computer...it was AWFUL.

i told him yesterday if her name is going to be Paisley then her middle name will have to be Panties. he decided that was a no go...:):)

[princessleah162.livejournal.com]

Good. It's a bad name, but the Paisley Panties make me laugh... hard.

See, I like Oscar. It's cute and different.

[pickleshmickle.livejournal.com]

oh yeah, i love oscar, we had already had that picked out before said awful list. this list was full of names that he would have used for his gaming, world of warcraft style, truly truly awful.

[princessleah162.livejournal.com]

I'd love to hear some of these if you remember. I could use a good chuckle.

[pickleshmickle.livejournal.com]

i'll try to find them, i think they are still saved on our other computer, but will have to send them to you tonight. i have to sneaky do it though, don't want brendan (SO) to find me with them!

[princessleah162.livejournal.com]

That's okay! Take your time. :)

Sorry to be a pain. I just love hearing the names people come up with.

[crazey-03.livejournal.com]

my SO came up with a ton of world of warcraft style names too LOL

[rachellynne.livejournal.com]

according to babynamewizard.com, the following are sibling names of people named oscar:
Alex Alice Ana Angus Antonio Carlos Dolores Edgar Eduardo Felix Hugo Isla Jorge Josephine Leo Louis Lucas Margarita Matilda Owen Raul Rory Rosa Vanessa Yadira

[pickleshmickle.livejournal.com]

wow, so maybe he WAS spot on with matilda huh? and my SO and i share the same b-day, and we are Leo's although i'm not too fond of that name. ugh, i've got so long to go!

[taleofaredhead.livejournal.com]

I really like Angus, Josephine, Matilda and Rory, of these sib-sets :]

ooohh good ones! i love emmett (he's my number one character on any tv show, emmett honeycutt from queer as folk FTW!!) but my SO shot it down.

i'm beginning to see my reasoning for not liking matilda is stupid.

[princessleah162.livejournal.com]

I personally think you should go with what works for you and what you like, baby celeb trends be damned.

I'm not a big fan of Matilda. It's one of those names that I just associate with a bigger, scary kind of woman in my mind, like Helga (like on American Gladiators), I think in part because I know it means "battle mighty". I do like a lot of old-er fashioned names though.

Madeline comes to mind for an M name. Pamela for a P name, if your SO likes that about Paisley, or Paige or Priscilla... or if he/you like the "lee" sound at the end of Paisley at all there's a ton of names that end in that sound. Hmm what else...

Part of me just wants to be a smarta** and say Anthony, so you'd have Oscar and Tony awards. :)

[bandnerd88.livejournal.com]

I actually know a set of siblings named Oscar, Antonio "Tony" and Emmy. Apparently Oscar and Tony were done unknowingly, and then when the parents realized it they decided to name their next child Emmy if it was a girl (which it was). I always thought it was funny.

[stormqueen280.livejournal.com]

Well, if you're going to have a theme, this is a very good one!

[jamie-chickie.livejournal.com]

Oscar is my top boys name. If I ever have two sons I would name them Oscar and Felix. Or Oscar and Elodie for a boy and a girl.
