My husband and I are expecting a baby in May 2006. If we have a girl, we have picked the name Meredith. If it's a boy, we're stumpted. We already have a son named Colin and picking his name came down to the wire. I like Liam, Ryan and Cole. He likes Gavin, Seth, and Andrew. We just can't agree. We want something normal but not ordinary. He likes my names and I like his but neither of us feel as though each others' isn't our child's name. We need your help. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Well, I definitely would not choose Cole since you already have a son named Colin. They are too similar. And since you say you want somethig NOT ordinary, then that would eliminate Ryan and Andrew from the list since they are very common and very popular. That leaves Gavin, Liam, and Seth. All 3 are nice names.

Some other ideas of Normal, but Not too Common names:

Aaron
Brock
Bryant
Dane
Grant
Gage
Hart
Jeremy
Joel
Kent
Lyle
Neil
Owen
Rodney
Vincent
Warrick
Zane

Good Luck!

Of your choices I really only like Liam. I like the name Cole, but it is too close to Colin, unless that's what you're going for.

Names I think are good with Colin - Simon, Brett, Brady, Devin, Dane, Elliot, Graham, Griffin, Julian, Lane, Miles (my fave), Nolan, Noel, Neil, Oliver, Reid, Stuart, Sebastian, Trent, Toby, Vaughan, Wesley

I really like Meredith and I think it is great with Colin. Good luck and let us know what you decide!

I love Meredith & I like Seth from your list. The first one that popped in my head was Holden. I think Colin & Holden sound nice together. I also like Conner, I think someone already mentioned it. Here are a couple of more suggestions.

Tanner
Brent
Nolan
Brock
Aaron

I like the name Logan for a boy, its ordinary, but not too ordinary like michael or john. Also, WDYT of Talan or Ethan? Even if no other names work, given the ones you listed, your husband and you could comprimise. EX: Seth Ryan or Liam Andrew. OR if you wanted to stick with "C" names try: Chase, Connor, Caleb, Cody, Colton, Carter, Christian, Carson, Cameron or Cooper..just to name a few. Good LUCK: )

How about?

Drew (similar to Andrew, but not as common)
Aidan (same Irish feel as Colin)

I love baby names but they are no light hearted task to pick out. I like the following for boy: Taven, Landon, Tate, Aiden, Carigan, Emery, Fallon, Taxton, and so many more.
I hope you find the right name for you and your family.

For girls I like Ember, Ciara, Haven, Aleace, and lots more as well.

Have lots of fun picking your babies name when you find the right one you'll know.
