When I replied that we did not (yet,) they looked at me and/or commented about having so many kids that I'd probably run out of names. I have thought..."seriously? I still have time, don't I?" <br /><br />I do confess, though, that I asked Jeff the other night - "Just how long can you go after the baby is born before you name it?" I have known people to take several weeks to get to know the baby and to feel sure...<br /><br />As to alphabet letters...I am very inconsistent on that thought. :) We have a daughter named Emily - so maybe it's just a boy thing. :) Most likely, it is fickleness on my part. :)<br /><br />Rhonda, I suggested Atticus to Jeff - you know, like Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird?<br /><br />Vanessa, I sure hope that things are looking up for you!<br /><br />Shannon - you always pick very nice names. :) Strong and full of character.<br /><br />Tiffany - how do you plan to pronounce Chaim? I considered that one - would it be with an H sound or the Hebraic way of pronouncing it? Kinda originating in your throat? Life. It's got good meaning. :)Hollyhttp://www.seekingfaithfulnessblog.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-53708064885104380422010-08-03T15:30:24.209-05:002010-08-03T15:30:24.209-05:00I don't think it is crazy at all and I have on...I don't think it is crazy at all and I have only had that experience with one of my children. When I was in the first trimester with my second son, I knew it was a boy and his name was Nathanael "gift of God". <br /><br />It is funny about your letter aversions. I am with you on E and F but I love G names for boys. So many good ones: Gilbert, Graham, Gareth, Gideon, Gabriel, Garth, Grant...I could go on but I am not trying to change your mind! I understand how letters can seem to have a personality and you either like them or you don't.<br /><br />We drew a total blank for our fifth son. Neither my husband nor I could think of a name, even after he was born! They really think your nutty in this day and age if your baby is not named at birth but ours did not have a name until the car was packed and we were ready to leave the hospital. We did end up letting the other kids name him since we couldn't think of anything but his name is NOT Tubal Cain.hope t.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-41241796307827493202010-08-01T17:22:31.674-05:002010-08-01T17:22:31.674-05:00That is a trump card!

I like strong, manly sounding names for boys, too, but they're getting harder to find with the trends towards turning boy names into girl names (we know 3 precious little girls named Micheal, James and Brock) and using either/or names like Bailey and Taylor. Those are all nice names, just not the names I wanted for my little man:) In the meantime I 'll be praying for y'all - maybe God's just making you sweat it for awhile:)Shannon Mhttp://www.idylwild.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-61514962190862971302010-07-31T21:06:17.077-05:002010-07-31T21:06:17.077-05:00Well our boys names we love (if we ever have a boy...Well our boys names we love (if we ever have a boy :)): Gabriel, Uriel, Uziel, Ariel, Chaim, Israel.

Nothing like that. :) I was just praying for an easy delivery for you and ... and Gabriel popped into my head. <br /><br />Maybe because he's your little angel? :D<br /><br />Thank you for all your prayers for us - I think God is listening to you. :DDarcsFalconhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01757804686134389853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-84911480786325285102010-07-31T11:12:01.313-05:002010-07-31T11:12:01.313-05:00Baby tip tap.

In the past - we've not even told the kids before hand what we were having nor what the name was. This time? They've known it all from the get go - and they've inserted themselves in a mighty way into the deliberations. So, I suggest a name, and the ENTIRE table groans....and subsequently they come up with their own twisted suggestions. :) They're all jokers around here, too - so - yes. We have some interesting suggestions. At some point, we have to get serious. I look at his little picture on the refrigerator, and say, "WHAT IS YOUR NAME?" (I need to know who is making me so miserable....) <br /><br />But anyway - I am glad to not be alone. It is difficult to find a name everyone agrees on. It's not just Jeff and myself - although - we do hold higher voting rights...

It is a mouthful but it is "strong". :)Amiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07480630137656027610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193225017879543369.post-87007787214626852672010-07-30T22:26:50.375-05:002010-07-30T22:26:50.375-05:00hi,you can find a numerous of baby names in the be...hi,you can find a numerous of baby names in the below list... check it..<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.altiusdirectory.com/Society/baby-names-meanings.php" rel="nofollow"> Unique Baby Names 2010</a>Altius directorynoreply@blogger.com
