I really hope someone can help me. I'm nearly 37 weeks pregnant with my second boy. I'm due on January 28th but scheduled to be induced on the 24th (if I make it to then). My boyfriend and I cannot agree on ANY names for this baby and I'm starting to lose hope. Nothing he likes is really clicking for me and everything that does click for me and feels like that could be the name, he says no to. It makes me sad because we came up with our first son's name the day we found out he was a boy and then just had to decide on a middle name. I'm super frustrated and I just need to find something. So I'm asking for suggestions. Our 2 year old son's name is Carter Erik Nelson. Carter we both loved right away, Erik is my boyfriend's name, and Nelson is his last name. I'm trying to find something that will sound nice with Carter. I feel I have a hard time because of the last name sometimes. A lot of names I like end in "N" or "son". The "N" might be okay but "son" is a no go. I'm open to anything but we don't really like "odd" names and I we can't stand any of the "den" names (Aiden, Jaden, Hayden, etc). We don't want anything outrageous but we also don't want anything that's really common. Any suggestions would be great though as I feel like I'm out of ideas.

Thanks so much in advance!

Wyatt is actually on our list and pretty high up. Boyfriend's favorites are Connor (which I'm not a big fan of), Dillon, and Wyatt so it might make it! I was hesitant to use it because I have a friend who just had a little boy named Wyatt last year and I didn't want to "steal her name" or anything like that but I sent her a message and she was totally cool with it so now I'm considering it!

Where in Wisconsin are you? I actually went to high school with an Eric Nelson and when I started seeing my Erik while I was in high school, I always had to specify that it was not the guy in our class. Then after I had Carter and reconnected with some people from high school, some who I wasn't super close to thought I was with the Eric Nelson from school haha.

I'm from the Oregon/Evansville/Brooklyn area... which all are about 5-15 miles south of Madison.

The Eric Nelson I know is *I think* from the Cross Plains area.

Well I really like Connor but I'm not a huge fan of alliteration with children's names, BUT I don't think it would seem like you're going overboard if you have a Connor and a Carter.

How close are you and the friend? Would your children be in school together or be seeing each other often? That's kind of how I guage the "same name" thing.

I'm not a fan of that either. He thought it would be fun to do another C name but I feel like then we're stuck with C names for the next baby. And if we don't give him/her a C name it might make them feel left out or something? I don't know I just don't really like it.

She actually lives out of state in Tennessee so I probably wouldn't see her or her son at all. I would think that would be fine too but you never know, some people are very possessive of their names.

Yeah well if that's the case, then I think you're fine with using Wyatt! At least you asked and she was cool with it!
