We are going to start TTC #2 soon, and I am obsessed with names. Okay, I have always been obsessed with names. lol Our DS is William Jackson (Will).

Right now, DH really only likes Andrew Jameson (Drew) and Samantha Emerson (Sam). I like these names, but I'm not sure if they are just right. Of course, DH won't even discuss names until we are pg and know the sex. Men!

So any suggestions? I like somewhat classic names with nickname possibilities. The middle name needs to start with J or E unless the first name does, and we would really like a "son" middle name.

Thanks!

Oh and if it helps (per the earlier thread), the baby will be quite fair with blonde/light brown hair and blue or green eyes.

For boys I like Andrew Jameson. I especially like Jameson. Other suggestions for a boys middle name beginning with J or E and ending in -son:

Jason
Jacobson
Jefferson
Jenson
Johnson
Jolson
Jetson
Ericson
Evanson
Emerson
Edison
Ellison

I also like these classic names for a boy:
Joseph
Edward
Alexander
Daniel
Richard
Robert
Thomas

For a girl, Samantha Emerson is very nice. I also like these classic girls names:
Elizabeth
Caroline
Carolyn
Claire
Olivia
Grace
Ellen
Emily

Good Luck!

I think Andrew Jameson and Samantha Emerson are darling names! In fact, Andrew is the only one on my boy list and Samantha is number one on the girls!

I would prefer Emerson as a girls FIRST name though, I think the nn Emmie/Emma would be so cute! My personal choices are
Samantha Rae
Samantha Grace (maybe Gracen since y'all like the "son" sound)
Samantha Rose
Samantha Cate
I think such a strong, long name like Samantha needs a shorter, cute little middle name.

HTH!
