MH can settle on a middle name for this kiddo. First name is set, Cole, but we keep going back and forth on various middle names. I like Andrew, but it gives him the same initials as MIL and neither one of us want to do that. Darn it!
I love the name Cole! If it were only me deciding, that would probably be this baby's name if it's a boy. Sorry I'm no help. Names are hard, esp boy names!
You don't need to have a name picked out before the baby is born. I think its fine to have a few options in mind, then decide when he's born. At least, that was our plan, until we both realized that we had the same #1 choice for first and middle name, so we're just going with that :-)
Plus, I don't think having the same initials as a relative is a big deal. It's not like you're naming the child after your MIL. If you like Cole Andrew (which is a good name, btw), then just go with it :-)
Haven't even really discussed it with DH. I'm too overwhelmed by it. I feel like it's way harder the second time around because I want it to "fit" well with DS' name and I love his name. I hated all the rest of the names from our first list.
Pretty sure we'll get to the hospital without a name, I just hope it doesn't take too long after birth to decide.

I'm mid 3rd tri but we don't have one yet either. The first name is set and we know we want the middle initial to start with A (because ours do) but I'm not a fan of some the "A" names for boys.
Our 2nd runner up first name was Aaron, but Carter Aaron reminds me too much of Aaron Carter and I don't like it. We could go with H's middle name, but I don't care for that either.

I do like Andrew, but H doesn't.
This probably won't help, but Adrian and Anson were both on our list.
We have a girl first name and a boy first name we both love but are at loggerheads on the middle names. I keep telling my H the middle name isn't that important... and to just pick my selections It's not working. His girl middle name favorite is after our favorite pizzeria. C'mon, dude.
We have a front runner first name, a maybe middle name, but we think we want to have a couple options to choose from in case he doesn't seem like our first choice name when he is here.
