Can you think of any nicknames for Janelle besides Jan or Elle?
Weve decided on that name, but it sounds to adultish for a little baby.
And We've decided on Boston, but we seriously cannot think of a middle name.
Jude came to mind, but my SO doesn't really like it that much. 
Eight weeks left, ahhh i'm gonna die waiting for them.

I know all of you are probobly annoyed by me now but I'm going crazy over here :[

Nell, Nelle, or Nellie.
After saying those outloud I'm really starting to like the name Nelle.

I meant to spell it with the K.
We just named our cat Nox, it's Latin for night and he's all black, but I love the name Knox for a boy.

My cousin's little sister (half sister... which is why she's not also my cousin) is named Janelle and she always has gone by Nellie or Nell. I love the nn Nell.

I'd put something more conventional with Boston for him to fall back on. Like Boston Michael or something-- maybe you could use a family name?

Good luck with the home stretch... it's so hard to wait, I know!

Here's hoping you have a girl so your son doesn't have to suffer with the name Boston. It's seriously horrible and idc if I get flamed for saying what everyone is thinking.

There are MUCH nicer ways to disagree with a name choice. Be nice or don't post.

I love the name Boston, still. :P

I like Janelle, too. I personally wouldn't use it, but it is a nice name. That "little baby" wont be little forever! :D I think parents forget that they are not just naming a baby, but one they'll be an adult.

Boston Nox (or Knox) is way too close to Boston (red) Sox.

She already chose the name so your comment is irrelevant :/

My friend Janelle was known as Nelle or Nelly in high school. Personally I think that's the cutest, best nickname for Janelle. :)
