We have five children

Joseph Tyler

Ashlynn Taylor

Donald Austin

Lance Eli

Jacob Colton

We don't know what we are having this time and I am struggling with names for both genders. We had girl's names picked out for our last three boys and they were Maggie Ann for #3, Lauren Elise for #4 and Lilly Beth for #5. My oldest DS has been in love with a girl named Maggie since first grade which kinda' rules that one out and we have had a million people name their baby Lilly in our church/school group lately. We also feel that Lauren is becoming a bit overused, so we are out of luck with names.

We did consider Jackson Daniel for our last son, but someone pointed out that it was awfully close to "Jack Daniels" and now we have too many Jackson's in our circle of friends. So, we don't have a boys name either.

Any ideas?? Our last name is Butler.

Thanks,

Donna

Well, it sounds like you are concerned with popularity, and I like pretty mainstream names, so I don't know how helpful I'll be, but here are some ideas:

Girls:

Out of your previous picks, I like Lauren Elise with your other kids' names. If Lauren is too overused for you, how about Laura or Laurel, to put a fresh twist on it. I think Elise is very pretty and could also work as a fn. I also like Lila as a less common twist on Lily. Other suggestions:

Bethany

Brenna

Bridget

Cara

Caroline

Celia

Corinne/Corinna

Delaney

Eliza

Gillian

Kirsten

Lynley

Mallory

Meredith

Paige

Sarah

Sydney

Tierney

Whitney

Boys:

I like Daniel as a fn -- but perhaps you think it's to close to Donald, b/c the nn could be Don or Donny and Dan and Danny. Personally I think Jackson may have been a touch close to Jacob, given the potential for Jake and Jack as brothers.

Other ideas:

Adam

Andrew

Brendan

Brennan

Bryce

Colin

Connor

Elijah

Elliot

Eric

Garrett

Gavin

Harrison

Ian

Justin

Kedrick

Kenneth

Kevin

Matthew

Michael

Nicholas

Owen

Patrick

Paul

Ryan

Timothy

Wesley

William

Zachary

Good luck!
