Hi All!

I am new to the community. My husband and I have been married almost 6 years are and planning to TTC in 2010 (we're both in grad school right now). I am starting to think about names - my rule is that I want something that will suit my child his or her whole life - something that will sound good when he/she is little, as well as when they are 40.  Hubby and I have been throwing around a few names, but he will only humor my name obsession up to a point - which is why I am here. 

Here are my top choices. I'd love feedback on them (ones that you love or hate), as well as any additional suggestions that seem to be of a similar style. I'd also love middle name suggestions - I have a few but not too many.

GIRLS
Norah
Cora
Lillian Rose
Anna Sue
Harper
Eleanor
Sophia
Claire
Sadie
Lydia
Rosemary
Phoebe
Lauren
Hannah
Leah
Evelyn
Grace
Chelsea
Paula
Vivienne
Natasha

BOYS
Joseph
Jacob
Joshua
Luke
Paul
Michael
Jonah
Seth
Noah
Isaac

Your names are pretty classy! I think any of them would be good on a 40 year old. And now.....onto my opinions!

Norah - not my style
Cora - also not my style
Lillian Rose - not my style
Anna Sue - I like Anna
Harper - cute!
Eleanor - like
Sophia - decent
Claire - don't like
Sadie - cute!
Lydia - decent
Rosemary - I think of Rosemary's Baby
Phoebe - reminds me of Friends but its cute
Lauren - too 80s
Hannah - too popular
Leah - love
Evelyn - love
Grace - overused as a middle name
Chelsea - LOVE
Paula - eh
Vivienne - eh
Natasha - I knew a Natasha and she was a homewrecker. So no.

Joseph - its ok
Jacob - reminds me of Twilight
Joshua - drunken frat boy who goes DUUUUUUUUDEEEE
Luke - cute!
Paul - my brother's name...I wouldn't use it myself
Michael - okay
Jonah - I think of whales...
Seth - reminds me of The OC
Noah - Noah's Ark...you really like your biblical names
Issac - I hope you meant Isaac
