Hi everyone,

Dilemma - I'm due 2 weeks from today, DH and I still haven't decided on what to call bub #2, we don't know the sex. Our DS is called Flynn Thomas. Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Our top three boys and girls names are:

Ellie Grace
Ava Grace
Amaya Grace (pronounced A-maya)

Darcy
Noah
Will

(not sure of a middle name for a boy, have been thinking of Leif (family name) or Mason (my husbands and my name together)

Many thanks

Girls names are all beautiful but Ellie is really popular at the moment - every one I know seems to want to call their daughter that, so I would go with Amaya Grace first then Ava Grace would be second choice for me.

Boys Names: I love and always have loved 'Darcy'. My friend just had a boy this week and called him Darcy, but another lady I know called her daughter 'Darcy' so maybe it's another really popular one at the moment. I think if you go with Darcy, Leif is a better middle name but i do like Darcy James. Mason goes well with Noah or Will, but then you have Noah just born on home and away. So I like all those names but to put them in order would probably be.....

Darcy James ;)
Darcy Leif
Noah Mason
Will Mason

It's hard isn't it!!!!

I really like Amaya Grace... (I usually dont like 'different' names!!) - but that one just seems to flow... and it is pretty and feminine...

my fav boys name on the list would have to be Will.. - Noah tends to make me think of the ark... and Darcy... well.. it makes me think of the 'Pride and Predj' book - but kids wouldn't think of that....

hope it helps :o

I think both Eliie and Ava are very popular right now, though I do like them a lot. Ava is tricky to pronounce: Aye-va or Ar-va. I like Ellie the best, it goes well with Flynn.

Amaya is beautiful, though not exactly sure on the pronunciation? A-my-a or A-may-a? I know a little girl called Maya (pronounced My-a) which is very similar and I like.

Boys names are the hardest - I only have one picked so far and that's James!
I like them in the order you have listed:
Darcy
Noah
Will

Hi,

I think they are all really nice names, but I love Amaya Grace and Will Mason or Noah Mason the best.

I love Amaya, it is the name of one of my closest friends who is Irish. She pronounces it like the store myer, a- myer. I believe it is a spanish name. I think Amaya Grace is beautiful. Will if it is a boy.

Good luck with the birth.

I would have to say Amaya for a girl - such a beautiful name. I would go Noah then Darcy, sorry but I hate the name will.

You have good taste......

If we have a girl it's Ella Grace... so I like " Ellie Grace"

And if we have a boy it will be William!!.... So "Will" for a boy

of course!! LOL

Ava
Ellie

Our top three boys and girls names are:

Ellie Grace
Ava Grace
Amaya Grace (pronounced A-maya)

Darcy
Noah
Will

"Amaya Grace" instantly provoked the song Amazing Grace in my head. Sorry.
So first would be Ellie, then Ava Grace.

Boys names, I think Noah is nicest and then a tie on Darcy and Will. If it had been William, not Will, I'd have voted for that.

Thanks so much for your feedback.

I really love the name Amaya (I have a cousin who is Mea - pronounced May-a, which I love but I don't like to copy so a friend suggested Amaya) - this was a name we had chosen during my last pg. So this time we thought we'd go with other names, but I'm thinking we should stick with it..... My DH really loves Ellie, argh!

And Darcy is a goer for a boy, it goes well with Flynn.
