Ok you said you would help me out...


The baby will have to have a J name... so help me out. Here is what we have already and you will understand why it has to be a J name


Mine--


Jacob 9


Justin 9


Jerrys--


Joe 15


Jared 14


Jillian 12


OR maybe I should break the J theme and go with M -- so I have someone along with me????


(wink)


So what ideas do you have ladies???

I think you have to keep thinking of names until you and Jerry have an enthusiastic agreement. I like Jillian the best. But maybe that is because there is a darling little 2 year old boy named Jillian on our street.

MaryBeth:

Thanks for asking. This is fun. My all-time favorite M name for a girl is Maggie. And if I ever have another daughter, she will be named Maggie. For a boy, I like Matthew or Michael. As for J, I've always liked Jessica (Jessie) and for a boy I like Joshua (Josh) or Joseph (Joey). I believe, though, that you have to look at your baby to see what he or she looks like and then a name will fit. I know that sounds dumb, but that's what I did. I never wanted to know the sex of my twins until they were born. So, I had two boys names picked if they were two boys; two girls names picked if they were two girls; and one boy name and one girl name if it was one of each. For the girls I picked Katie and Carrie. My daughter was born first. When I was laboring with my son, they brought my daughter over to me, all cleaned and wrapped in a blanket. I looked over to the side of me where the nurse was standing with her, and I said out loud, "That's my Katie". No doubt about it. She looked like a Katie. As for my son, he was supposed to be Eric, but my exh talked me out of that name, and we went with Alex. My sister has two daughters and two sons. She had her two daughters first, and both times she had a name picked out for the baby, but once the baby was born, she changed her mind and named them something else. I know that's strange. But, for her sons, she stuck with the names she originally picked out.

How is Jerry taking the news that you are keeping the baby? Is he excited? Have you told your boys yet? Keep us posted.

Alison TISK TISK - NO TWINS PLEASE!!!!


Umm thanks for all the great ideas!!


Jerry ummm isnt saying much - isnt talking about it really all he has said is he supports me and understands - he isnt bailing out but not saying what his part will be.


MY CHOICE is to be excited about this if I am doing it alone or not. I am lucky enough that I have a good situation that

Good good! You do have a choice how you feel. I am soooo glad you feel that way.


Give Jerry time. He'll come around. If he's made it clear he's not bailing out on you, then that's a great sign.


I love the names so far. (except, Kim...Journey??? Like the group? I can't get on board with that one. LOL)


I only wanted to add Jasmine for "J" names and Merideth for an "M" name.
