For Trudy

[Deleted]

This list is constantly changing and I'm only adding a few because I am drunk. Please note that I am drunk because I am tired. My kid won't fucking sleep. He was awake from 12 to 4 last night. I may never have another one if this keeps up.

Girls:
Louisa
Magdalena
June
Lenora (or Eleanora)
Lorraine
Coraline

Boys:
Walter
Gideon
Jeremiah
Fredrick

[TrudyCampbell]

Beautiful!!  :Y:  :Y:

Now everyone in the land add your name lists. I want to see them ALL!

[imimahoney]

Louisa and Gideon are my favessssss

[TrudyCampbell]

I think I like Louisa and Gideon for you @thadsrad

[Deleted]

You guys are sweet. Louisa Marian and Gideon Lee will thank you some day.

Jeez, tired and drunk is a ridiculous combo.

[carawestt]

Another vote for Louisa and Gideon! I also love Lenora. And since TrudyCampbell asked, our names right now are Genevieve Lucille and Dexter Thomas. I'm hoping H doesnt change his mind on the boy name AGAIN!

Yay for Dexter!!  :Y: :Y:
I just took it off my list and I can't remember why. Maybe because I'm watching too much Dexter. I love it though!

I love the name Ivy but can't use it. At the moment Lydia Gertrude and Miles Walter are in the lead for me, but I'm still really hesitant about the L name.

I love Lydia but Lindsay, Lily and Lydia is quite a tongue twister!

[carawestt]

TrudyCampbell I know, I've loved Dexter for so long! I had to bribe H by making his dad's name the MN but totally worth it. I might die if he decides he suddenly hates it.

@thadsrad Thanks! I usually don't like nicknames but I was watching Something Borrowed the other day and she calls him Dex and I kinda like it! So maybe.

I couldn't use Felicity with Allison as the middle name because the initials FAT are too mean. Does Allison Felicity sound good?

Some people would say that it is a mouthful because they are both long but I like it! I like it reversed too: felicity Allison sounds good!

Yeah but, FAT. Is that mean?

FAT is mean. Do not do it. But I say do Allison Felicity and call her Felicity. I think the middle name as a first name thing is strange, but it's def a southern thing.

Claire
Alice

Our boy name from years ago was Marc.

I love Arthur and Jerome, but one of H's old roommates was named Arthur and he had a boss for five years named Jerome who we're close with. Can we just ignore these facts??

I'm open to suggestions but we have the limitations that it has to work in both French and English (preferably spelled the same in both, hence Marc) and not nickname able.

I'll put my names in here too and pretend H doesn't exist.

James (Jamie)
Theodore (Teddy)

Elizabeth (probably nn Beth, or maybe Betty b/c it seems natural, although I don't love it)
Emily
Jane
June

My lists are always short, lol.

Betty! I don't care if you don't love it. I love it and that is all that matters.

After seeing one of my punk rock heroes last night Lars is back towards the top of my boys list. i want to dress him in skinny red plaid pants with a gratuitous amount of unnecessary zippers and a pair of white Doc Martin boots LOL. But these are in no particular order

Lars
Flynn
Penn
Heathcliff/Heath
Saul

Magnolia
Wren
I think I've nixed Georgia for good since this week
Carolina pronounced the Latin way even though it would never happen.

[AndyCohen]

Guys, seriously. What is the rule on naming your kid the same name as a friend?

I finally asked my husband if he liked Georgia and he shockingly LOVED it. I'm not giving it up yet!

No, not at all. But Arthur and Jerome are kind of uncommon names so I feel like people would make a connection.

I'd use it. People in the same circle might ask once but that will be it.

Dahli, you need a Wren.

Ugh I tried talking to DH about this last night when we were drunk and he barely cracked a smile. I told him I really want to wait until next summer when he's 40 and I'm 35 to entirely shut the door. I think he's ready to have his child bearing years behind him, lol.

Oh! That's exciting. Maybe it's the next name for you.

[kandrze1]

I love Gideon and Louisa so much. and I'm drunk too

[UnicornDog]

I wish I could get away with Coraline! I am fond of -line names but H is not.

[TrudyCampbell]

Spencer Elliot? That's a good name, right? (I'm making this about me again)

So mean!! Can you imagine being the 13 year old girl with the FAT monogram??? That is junior high hell right there. (It is so pretty, though)

I can't please all the probies!!!! I feel like it's weird though because then I might choose a name that I'll know people do not like.
