I'm not pregnant and I don't plan on having many children, and I already have my girl names picked out:

Anne Elinor
Elisabeth Felicity (called Liesel)

But my husband and I can't pick boy names, even speculatively. We have such trouble. There are a lot of names we LIKE but don't love (George, Daniel, Henry, Mason, Cory, Matthew).

A lot of names we like the nicknames for but hate the actual name (we HATE Nicholas but like Nick, HATE Edward but like Ted and Teddy). So far the only certain one we've come up with is John. We liked William, but we can't use it.

Does anyone else hate boy names?
