Not TTC or anything, I just love names. My list has changed quite a bit in the past few months, so here you go:


First Names:
Luke
Jacob (Jake)
Samuel (Sam)
Max
Noah
Elijah (Eli)
Benjamin (Ben)
Ethan
Ryan

Middle Names: (I like middle names that are used to honor someone else - family, friends, heros, etc.)
Michael – my brother’s fn
Atticus – from To Kill a Mockingbird
Brian – one of my best friend’s first names
Timothy – my dad’s name
Otto – paternal great-grandfather’s middle name, grandfather and cousin’s first names
Charles – maternal great-grandfather’s first name
Paul – brother’s mn, uncle’s fn
Philip – uncle’s name
Robin – aunt’s name…I don’t like this as a girl’s name, but I like it for a boy’s name
Franklin – as in Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Yes, I know, it’s weird, but I love him.

Combos I Like:

Ryan Atticus

First Names:
Emily
Julianna (Jules)

Middle Names:
Eleanor – as in Eleanor Roosevelt
Margaret – maternal grandmother’s first name
Rose – as in the first syllable of Roosevelt. STFU, I love them.

emily scout is adorable!
i like jude as a nickname for judith? i really like it as a girl's name, actually. i used to LOVE judy blume!
amelia is pretty. i prefer the spelling annabel, because that's the way my friend spells it and its somehow less frilly! annie is cute, but i think i prefer anna?
i LOVE elijah robin- that's beautiful. & noah michael. i'm not that fond of the name franklin but it sounds REALLY good with samuel (which i like a lot).

I'm not a huge fan of Franklin, either, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Roosevelts and I can't think of someone I'd rather my kid share his name with.

I like Jude, too, and I would LOVE to use Judith has a first name, but I know that everyone would call her Judy and I hate that name. It sounds so middle aged to me! lol

Samuel (Sam) - ADORE, want to use.
Max - Like it.

Benjamin (Ben) - Like it. I like the full name a lot

Amelia is one of my favorite names as well, but I prefer Amie as a nickname.

My mother almost named me Jordan after Jordan Baker in The Great Gatsby, her favorite book. And my grandmother's name was Lillian, so I love that too.

I think you have a really nice, classic taste in names. But none of them seem dusty and old fashioned.

I like:

Ethan
Luke
Elijah
Noah
Atticus

Scout
Emily
Jordan
Amelia
Olivia
Lillian
Eleanor
Harper


Harper Lee's full name was "Nell Harper Lee" but I think Nell also sounds unfinnished. I'm not a huge fan of Judith, but all your other names are perfectly lovely.

Lillian is absolutely adorable.
I like Annabelle, but mainly 'cause of the nickname.
And Eleanor is cute, too.
