Want to help me name my baby?

[lexus]

We can't decide on a name for DS2. We made a giant list of names we both agree on but nothing feels right. We keep coming back to Carter and Andrew. His middle name would be a family name either Matthew or Edward. Our other two kids have long names that we forgo for shorter nicknames.

Andrew Matthew

[cabbagecabbage]

I vastly prefer Andrew to Carter since my tastes are more old fashioned. I don't think you can go wrong with a handsome classic like Andrew.

PDQ
Our other kids' names are more traditional- Kath.erine and Ben.jamin.

We would probably shorten Andrew to either Andy or Drew.

[quesyrah]

Are you set on the middle
names? Because I actually like Andrew Carter.

Of your choices Andrew Edward would be my favorite.

[soexcited317]

I voted for Andrew Matthew, but after reading the other posts I agree that Andrew Edward sounds the best. I also really like traditional names and love the name Andrew. I think it goes nicely with your other children's names as well. My brother's name is Andrew and he goes by Andy.

[gastro]

Andrew Edward. Nickname Drew if you wanted to shorten, but I like Andrew just as it is too.

Love carter as a first name. Carter Edward sounds lovely! How exciting

[mamaalysson]

I love the name Edward. Love it. If we had given DS a middle name, that would have been it. I also love Andrew. I think it's more classic and goes with your other kids' names better. So, I vote for Andrew Edward.

[nowa]

Oh I like Andrew Carter!

[NandaB]

I don't think I ever knew your dds name. I actually like Edward the best for a first name. Edward Andrew.

[CrazyLucky]

I like Andrew better than Carter, but I would shorten to Drew, not Andy. Andy is a great kid's name, but Drew is a name that is good at all ages.

Really? That's funny. I think in the bump days I had siggies. We call her Katie and always planned too.

[cna]

Andrew Matthew. I might be a bit partial, though.

[auroraloo]

Andrew Matthew would bug me because of the ews. And I strongly dislike the names Matthew and Andrew so I vote Carter Edward.

[chatterbox]

Love Andrew. It was one of my top three names, but DH nixed it. Our little guy is due in three weeks and we still haven't agreed on a name

[vettymama]

Andrew is DH's name. His family calls him Andy and I hate it. I always call him by the whole name. Matthew is DS2's middle name. Gav.in Mat.thew.

So with my rambling, I like Andrew Matthew. The ews wouldn't bother me.

It's really bugging me that he doesn't have a name. Especially since we already scheduled my c-section. What ideas are you tossing around?

[lala]

Love Andrew Edward, especially with Andy for a nn. I dislike Drew and I do know plenty of Andrews who still go by Andy as an adult; doesn't seem weird to me at all.

I don't think Carter goes w/ the other names at all.

It's bugging me too! My top names are Nathan, Cameron, and Andrew. DH likes Nile, Hudson, or Finnley (not sure how it's spelled). We both kind of like Evan, but it's neither of our top picks.

All 3 of your names were on my list and we ended up going with Andrew. If I'm being honest, I don't really like any of your husband's options.

[Kcthepouchh8r]

Another vote for Andrew carter

[sparkythelawyer]

No to Andrew Matthew. Too Rhym-ey. (Rhymy? Rhymie?)

I think Andrew Edward, then Carter Mathew, then Carter Edward, then Andrew Matthew in that order.

[penguingrrl]

My son is Andrew and goes by Drew. Obviously I love it lol! I think Andrew Edward sounds really nice.

This was me, too. Mostly because I don't like the nicknames Andy or Matt.

[rosesandpetals]

Andrew Edward. I love the name Edward.
