Aubrey (my fave)
Matilda (Millie)
Scarlett
Charlotte
Cassidy
Holly

Cooper (my fave)
Darby (DH fave)
Cade
Archer (Archie)
Darcy
Finn
Seth

Please share . . .

We haven't really talked about names yet, but thought I'd list a few of my favourites...

Boys
Luke
Lucas
Thomas
Eric (Rick)

Girls
Lucy
Olivia
Caitlin
Jessica
Hannah

Really not sure what we will go with, especially for a boy, DH isn't too keen with the ones I like... With DS, we had 1 name really and thats what we went with, Jack... Love some more name ideas, especially for boys...

06-07-2007, 06:58 PM

Our boys name is pretty much set in stone... We are having lots of problems with a girls name though...

DF mentioned Matilda as I was thinking of something starting with M seeing as DD's starts with A - go to the middle of the alphabet this time... But I'm not sure...

At the moment, our baby will be called Aubrey Clare or Aubrey Sienna. This could change by Jan though.
I also like Madeline but Aubrey is my favourite - and not too popular.

19-08-2007, 02:28 PM

We finally have a list of girls names - gee it was hard!

Charlotte
Genevieve
Gabrielle
Jaqueline
Courtney
Eloise
Bethany
Chantelle

I like 9 letter names - mine and DD's are both 9 letters So Courtney, Eloise and Bethany come off IF we go 9 letters again!

I like simple names.
my two boys i already have are

Jacob Andrew
Matthew William Garry

mine is pretty much 80% going to be

James Stephen (Stephen is my brother's name)

Even though I'm not having a girl i really liked the name girls names Delilah or Dahlia.

Lol and no Im not religious. I just like biblical names.

hey all,

i still like annabelle for a girl (sorry widget, your DD's name is getting popular!)

DH likes nicholas for a boy, i like it too...

so unless we get sick of the names before january thats what it will be...

middle names will be a combo of our parents names,

both our dad's middle names are john so we will probbaly have a nicholas john

DH's mum's name is janice and my mums middle name is jane so we will probably have annabelle jane

Wish we were having success :rolleyes:

We now have 2 names on our list, one that I love and one that DH's loves, only thing is, we're not to keen on each others names *sigh*

He really wants Adam.
I really want Phoenix.

Middle names - don't get me started!!

Lis, in regards to a poll - Phoenix Adam vs Adam Phoenix or are you both saying that you don't want the other name at all??

Try and compromise and use both if you can... That way you both get to use the name you want...

xxxDragonFlyxxx

12-10-2007, 07:52 AM

Chelle - I actually have a poll going on another forum LoL so far it's going my way ;)

Widge - Whatever name doesn't get used as a first name will get used as a second name, so it will either be Phoenix Adam or Adam Phoenix.

But I like Phoenix so much that I wouldn't be all that happy with using it as just the middle name simply because he will never get called Phoenix :o

Yeah but Widge, if we named him Adam, but called him Phoenix (which DH wouldn't agree too because he wants to name him Adam) then what would be the point of naming him Adam in the first place??

Kind of defeats the purpose really, and still doesn't solve our problem LoL

Might get a little interesting for you and tippy to call your boys Nicholas and then we have regular meet ups and become great mates!!

Different states or even different parts of NSW and I'd be saying who cares, not like they'll be close... :laughing:

BUT 2 of the Brissy girls from DD's mums group named their daughter the same and now they meet up so regularly it's not funny - thankfully they have different short names for both of them though.

I'm getting over my hatred of other people using DD's name and am coming to terms with the fact that it is coming back into popularity - to the point where I've actually posted her name more than once on the forum!! :eek:

12-10-2007, 02:05 PM

I wouldn't mind if someone wanted to use my DS's name. DH came up with it a week before he was born and it was the only one we could agree on. I've only ever heard of 1 other little boy with this name and that was from when i worked in Childcare. Its not an uncommon name, just not really common.

Ok, Its Aaron. He says "Aawon" because he can't pronounce his "r"s. Its popular enough to be able to get pre-made bottles and signs with his name on them (its often the first one) but not enough so that there are 3 other kids in his class with the same name.

Chelle123

13-10-2007, 04:16 PM

Nice name tiptoe. Tyler's name is like that too, a bit popuar, can buy some pre-made stuff but not heaps of them around. Noah seems to be really popular atm, it wasn't when he was born, most seem to be younger than him. However, not much pre-made stuff with his name.

I'm guessing our baby will have everything with her name custom made (Aubrie). I've never even heard of another girl Aubrie in Aus, only in the US from a scrapbooking mag.

Great name Tiptoe!!!

Widget's going to kill me for this but I think now that we will have 2 names ready and I'll explain my reasons in a sec. The names are 'Aubrie Clare' which you already know, and jic this baby comes out with red hair, I like 'Laura Jade'.

My DS1 has red hair so its highly likely that this bub will too and I don't want her to be nicknamed 'Strawberry Aubrie'. Redheads cop enough teasing without setting them up for it so I think that's how we'll go (haven't told DH yet though).

I'm ducking for cover from Widget now...

26-10-2007, 10:45 PM

Chelle...

There's nowhere to hide...

*smacks you upside the head*

Didn't we ALL discuss this in an EARLIER thread you had??

Strawberry Aubrie is gorgeous IF she is a red-head - which BTW, you won't know AT birth... I still believe it's really cute and even more feminine!!

DF was born with red, red hair - it's def not red now! It went dark, dark brown (not black but really dark) when he was 2.

I was born with Black hair - it's dark blonde now... Has been since before I can remember too!!

On another note *growls at Chelle* I asked DF about middle names and he just said "I thought you wanted Grahame, to carry on the name" umm, yeah, but I was thinking of using it as a 2nd middle name, not the only one!!

What goes with Genevieve or Jaqueline??

I don't mind if she's a GEGE... Little unsure about GGE though - you do know that that's EGG backwards?? I think I'd like 2 middle names though...

feline11

27-10-2007, 06:54 AM

I've realised we could have a problem - if we have a boy we want to call him Oliver Jordan - OJ yikes!

If a girl - Sarah but cant think of a middle name (his mums name) my mum is still alive and called Georgina which (sorry mum) i dont like and there isnt much you can do with it except for Georgia which i dont think i like either - not that it has to have her name - just thought would be nice if we could :ecomcity: rambling now so will go

I've still got Maia (May-a) on my 'just in case she doesn't look like Aubrie' list.
I keep dreaming that her name is Aubrie but spelt Aubrey - I don't know if that's a sign to change the spelling.

sairpaul

04-11-2007, 07:34 PM

Its pro nounce My-a but i like the unusual spelling. I like the name well before i got pregnant then my friend named her dog that and i went off it then when i got pregnant DH Decided he did like it after not for so long. I really like Aubrey which ever way you spell it

candyn

Like your names Sairpaul especially Jaden:D

Okay Well we have officially decided for sure, our little new baby boy will be named:

If born on anydate in January:

Alexander Robert

If born on the 21st of Jan it will be

Alexander Robert Anthony

(reasoning DH grandfather and brother (both Anthony) were born on the 21st of Jan, it is also my BDay)

Alexander i love,
Robert is DH's name and i though well he got me into this mess so this bub can have Dads name.:laughing:

Chelle123

04-11-2007, 09:08 PM

That's good reasoning :laughing:

My DS1 has got red hair so when we knew DS2 was another boy, we had different names for different hair colours: Blonde - Noah, Red - Baxter and I can't remember Brown but I don't think we really expected him to have dark hair anyway.

If this baby has red hair I think she'll be Laura or Maia as I don't want her getting 'strawberry Aubrie'. We won't make a final decision till we see what she looks like.

candyn

05-11-2007, 07:15 AM

Chelle - i like Aubrie, i don't see strawberrie Aubrie as a bad nickname i think it is very cute.

I also love Laura, have always like that name beautiful and elegant.

Go with what your heart says if you keep going back to Aubrie then thats what i would stick with.

I love the name Noah too, my DH is a bit of a stick in the mud with names and i actually mentioned Noah , Isaiah and Elijah to him an he just said NO! Little pooh, the only one we BOTH like was ALexander i like it cause i can call him Alex or Xander, or in my preferred version Alessandro (whoooooo soooooo sexy).

Beautiful names Jasmine.
I think we would have had trouble picking a boys name but the night before we found out the sex, I had probably my first dream about this baby being called Aubrie, then I just had to convince DH that it was the name we'd use. It's grown on him now and he even calls her Aubrie now which is quite nice.

05-11-2007, 04:43 PM

I like your boys name Jas, your girls name is pretty, but I'm a little unsure about having 2 colours as the names... Though, ultimately it is what you and DH decide...

Except in Chelle's case where her daughter WILL be named Aubrie Clare!!

Us, we haven't talked about names in ages but I think Genevieve is going to be "it" just have to work on middle names now!!

jas08

06-11-2007, 08:04 PM

Hi widget,
never thought of it as 2 colours before. Amber is my middle name so i thought i would keep with a tradition we started and pass it along. My eldest son has my husbands middle name as his middle name. Am sure that you will pick out the perfect name for your bubs when the time is right.

When we came up with Tyler's name, we thought we'd call him Ty - but we never have. Can't really shorten Noah although Tyler sometimes calls him 'Noey'.

With Aubrie, we've already decided we don't want her to be called Brie so if it gets shortened, it will be 'Aubs'.

xxxDragonFlyxxx

07-11-2007, 08:15 PM

I'm not a fan of shortening names either, which is why we chose Holly...it can't really be shortened to anything as it's already a short name, as for Phoenix, I can't think of anything it could possibly be shortened to, unless you go Nix or Nick...

Either way, I will be calling him nothing but Phoenix :D

Chelle, i'm with the others, still loving Aubrie Clare! And still loving the 'ie' instead of 'ey' too!!

DF calls her Bella - and I abuse him every time too - it's not her name, her name is Annabelle... So when Gen slips out I correct myself...

Funny though, For Gabriel (if bub's is male) DF doesn't want it shortened, but I'd be using Gabe... :laughing:

im still struggling with names...

i love aubrie, been meaning to comment on that for ages. its sweet.

if i had a girl it would have been Delilah. but not to be..
so at the moment for some reason im stuck on Elijah.
i dont know if i like it yet, but i cant seem to move past it and keep coming back to it, so i think thats what it will end up being.

as for names being shortened- my brothers name id gary and we always clal him "Ga". lol.

my boys are jacob and matthew so obviously they get matt and jake.

so for now the name is Elijah James. what do you think?
as for shortening it, im thinking Eli.

I love the name Elijah and Eli. I'm sure I had it on a list for one of my boys but DH just would not agree.

A note for Widget - On Monday night when we had a family dinner, everyone was trying to give us name ideas (they didn't know we already had one) and BIL came up with Annabelle - I just had a little giggle to myself thinking "V would kill me".

If we get a huge surprise and bub turns out to be a boy ... we have Eli Joel chosen.

Still sticking with Ruby Lily. It seems to go really well with the other names we have used so far. It also helps that it was my Great Grandmothers name and she was a tiny, feisty and really lovely woman who lived to a ripe old age in good health ...

DD is Bella Cate

DD's twin (m/c) is Nikki Lee

DS is Daniel Arthur

DS m/c in 2005 is Sam Elias

So, all pretty old fashioned and yet modern enough to not be really dated.

The names we considered for DD if she was a boy were either Matthew or Michael with Allan as a mn.

DS was going to be Jenna Eve or Meghan Anna if he was a girl.

Chelle ... I love Aubrie - can't stress this often enough and Aubs is a really cute nn.

DON'T EVEN THINK OF CHANGING IT - NO MATTER WHAT COLOUR HAIR SHE HAS !!!!

Is that clear enough????;)

i like old fashioned names too, i seem to go with the bible theme- even though im not religious.
jacob matthew and elijah all being hebrew names. second name on the list is Lucas. but the boys have been watching star wars heaps so now when i see it i think of "lucas Films" lol
