Name of choice... splat... help!

I'm having my second boy any day now... my older boy is 8 and is named Hunter Michael. For some reason, every name I seem to pick this pregancy is only one syllable. My name of choice waaaaaas Jake. However, I've now met at least a handful of Jakes recently, all misbehaving with snotty noses. LOL! I know that sounds terrible, but that did it for me.

So many people have asked me what the baby's name is going to be. I've learned not to tell a soul now! :)

I like Cole, but one of my best friends' girlfriends son is named Cole. We don't see them often, but I still feel like a "name theif"! Also, not sure of how that rings with my last name, which has 3 syllables.

I'd like something a little different but not too weird.. any suggestions would be great!

not sure if you like the idea of same initials for your sons, but I think Holden Matthew would be a great sibling name for Hunter Michael.

other thoughts that match up with Hunter in style: Brennan, Colin, Conner, Colton, Derek, Dylan, Eric, Ethan, Garrett, Jared, Joshua, Keegan, Kyle or Kyler, Landon, Lucas, Preston, Parker, Rhett, Tanner, Trevor.

good luck.
