Ok, so DH and I have a really hard time with agreeing on boy names. What do you think of the names on our list so far? Do they go well with Emerson/Emmy as a sib set? The middle name will likely be either Matthew (DH's name) or Wallis (my maiden name, pronounced Wallace)

Donovan (probably our front runner but I really don't want the nn Don or **shutters** Donnie)
Dominic
Jack
Gavin
Reid (DH is vetoing this but it is my favorite so I am keeping it on the table!)

It's a strong possibility.

But I love that name, a lot. I think Gavin and Reid work really good with Emerson and your last name!

Omg Dominic and Donovan were the names I begged for, I've mentioned the on here a lot. dH thought Domonic sounded like demonic. And Donovan was my favorite, but DH didn't want it...I still feel like Julian should have been a Donovan!

Reid all the way!!

Dominic and Donovan I actually don't like, sorry. :/ especially Donovan (shudder)

What about Reis (Reese? I have no idea how to spell this, lol) as an alternative for your hubs?

BTW, I totally get you. I wanted Claire so so bad for Sophia but one of my best friend's middle names is Claire, DH thinks she can be trashy and doesn't want her to think there is a connection. Ugh! I hate when they make these random connections!

we know a bunch of Gavins but I really like the name a lot. Jack is also a nice name but popular here.

What about Rowan? or Ronan?

Nolan?

Ellery?
