babynamesHi! I just recently joined this community, and I'm in the middle of a naming situation.
I'm pregnant with twins (boy&girl) due next month. Would you help me with my naming choices?
Also, my husband and I have very short last names, and since I kept mine, we thought about using both, but I don´t think they sound good together: mine is Gray, his is Glass.
For a boy:
For a girl:

For a boy:
- Alexander (nickname would be Sasha, honoring my hubby's russian descent, but apparently there's a porn star named Sasha Gray)
- Noah
- Samuel
- Lucas
- Eli
For a girl:
- Nico
- Lena
- Leah
- Hanna
- Sara

Date: 2010-02-11 05:16 pm (UTC)I love Noah, Samuel, and all of the girl names, too.

Date: 2010-02-11 05:27 pm (UTC)Are you using middle names?
My favorite for a girl is Noah Samuel as a first/middle combo for a boy.
For a girl, I love Lena the most.

I love Hanna too, but my husand wants Lena or Leah.

Date: 2010-02-11 05:30 pm (UTC)I really like Alexander and Lucas. I like Eli but as a nickname. What about Elias, Elijah? I LOVE Lena. I feel that Nico is a male name... and I guess I don't mind Hanna.

noah & leah
samuel & sara
lucas & lena
eli & nico
my faves in general of your names are lucas and nico.
no subject
Date: 2010-02-11 05:36 pm (UTC)i dont like lena, and prefer the traditional hannah to hanna, but overall i like your choices.
my favorite combo is probably noah and leah, or samuel and hanna/h.
hannah also has a much nicer meaning than hanna, if that matters to you.

Date: 2010-02-11 06:16 pm (UTC)I had no idea Sasha Grey was a porn star! Such a shame too, I love the nn Sasha for Alexander. Maybe nobody would get the reference?
no subject
Date: 2010-02-11 06:20 pm (UTC)So I'd suggest Lena & Samuel (Sam & Lena sounds awesome!) or Sara & Eli.
Although with none of the names you like you can really go wrong =). Congrats!

Date: 2010-02-11 06:39 pm (UTC)I think Hanna is my favorite of your girls name. I like Hanna with Noah, Lucas, and Alexander.

Date: 2010-02-11 06:56 pm (UTC)I'm thinking it would be better if we just use my husbands last name

Date: 2010-02-11 09:38 pm (UTC)Lena, Leah, and Sara are beautiful, but I'm not a fan of Hanna or Nico. Nico sounds like a boy's name and Hanna is just not my style. Of the first three, I like Leah best.
As for the last names, Gray sounds better to my ear, but Glass is also perfectly respectable. Whatever floats your boat. :)

For a girl I definitely think you should use Lena or Nico. The other girl names you have chosen are so common and popular. Idk if you want something less common, but that's my 2 cents.

Date: 2010-02-12 09:01 pm (UTC)I like all your boy choices. Lucas is my favorite, Eli my least favorite. Sasha is adorable, and I wouldn't let the pron star thing bother me; I mean, really, how often does that come up in conversation??
For a girl, the only one of your names that I like is Leah, which I love. Nico might make a cute nn for Nicole, Nicolette, etc., but I can't see it by itself, not on a girl. Sara's too generic, Hanna's misspelled, and Lena just does nothing for me.
Congrats on the twins!!
