I voted for Gwendolyn, not because it was my favorite name there (that would be Mallory or Noelle) but because it didn't end in a vowel sound. I think the other all kind of run into your ln and sound like one word, especially Zoe, Lydia and Mallory. Abigail is nice but if it will be shortened to Abby you have the same problem.

They haven't been chosen yet. :) Once we pick a first name, then we will go to my DH's parents and they will come up with a list of Chinese names that they think will fit. Sort of sounding alike. Like my DH's name in english is Kevin, Chinese is Kai Man. So they'll make a list and we will choose the one we like best. :) We won't be finding out if we're having a boy or a girl, so we're going to have to come up with two names. :)

I like Gwen too. But I think Gwen sounds odd with our last name as well. Though there are not a whole lot of names that sound "normal" with a last name like Ng! lol! I'm pretty sure we're going to pick Lydia for a girl name. We both love it. But I want to see what everyone else would have chosen. :)

Hehe yes. Man is the name used in my DH's family. :) His brother's name is Cheuk Man. We call him Chuck-Man for fun. :) I can't wait to see what names they come up with for us! :)
