hello!! i like most of the names you posted-especially the boys names...but ill start out with the girls choices:
what about combining evette and gene and do jeanette?? that way you can still honor those 2 but she'll have her own name...i really like the combo of victoria jeanette. i like victoria jacklyne too-but not with evette in there too...seems too long to me...
as far as boys-what about reversing your hubbys name:
elliot harrison.
i also really like xavier ray.
good luck!!

I love Elliot for a first name! You'd still be honoring your husband without him being a junior.


I think that Makena Evette Gene is a mouthful and it kind of runs together, and Sage Cecilia flows but is too much of the same sound for my taste.


What about Makena Gene or Sage Evette?

i forgot to mention that out of all the girl's names, I love Cecilia the BEST for a first name. Really beautiful, classy, and not overly used. Would you consider that as a first name?

awww i love that you're still considering it. it's a nice tribute to your mom, a beautiful classy name that isn't overly used, and just all around a great choice! :)
