I am expecting quads in november! 2 boys and 2 girls.

We have chosen some names but are exactly sure thats what we wnat to go with and if we should switch the middle names around any I like the idea of having unisex names and these are some of my favorite. All the middle names are family names. Please let me know!


brecken Rae-girl

Camden Lee-boy

Aspen Brooke-girl

Keeagan Michael-boy

If you changed Keegan to a name starting with D, you'd have A, B, C, and D! :)

Brecken Rae-girl ~ like mn Rae, not too keen on Brecken as a girl's name

Camden Lee-boy ~ love Camden. Lee is ok, don't know if it goes with Camden

Aspen Brooke-girl ~ love Brooke as a mn or fn. Aspen is very unique!

Keegan Michael-boy ~ Keegan is nms. like Michael a whole lot

Have you considered the name Brinley for a girl? It seems like your style and it's a little more feminine that Brecken :) Alternatives for Keegan I like are Keiran and Keenan.

Good Luck! :)

hmmm, sorry but I don't like any of them. The whole unisex thing with mixed gender multiples doesn't work for me. I just think that the whole part of being quads will make them stand out on its own, giving them names that are unusual and unisex just ups the ante in my HO. Not that you have to go with totally traditional names like Anne, Sarah, Joshua & Thomas either. I'd pick names that are not super common, but more gender evident. these might not be your style but I think "work" as quads:

Owen Michael

Colin Lee

Jillian Rae

Audrey Brooke

Andi

I love them!!! One of the guys I work with is considering Camden and Ashton. My faves are Camden and Keegan. Never heard Brecken before. I also think Brinley would be good.

Good Luck

Brecken Rae (girl) - I really like Brecken, Rae is nms (even though it's a family name)

Camden Lee (boy) - I like Camden (although I prefer Cameron or Campbell), Lee is nms

Aspen Brooke (girl) - I'm lukewarm about Aspen. I like Brooke.

Keeagan Michael (boy) - I like Keegan or Keagan, not sure if you have an extra vowel in there somewhere? Michael is nms.

The only name I'm not wild about is Aspen. Unless Aspen is a special place for your family...

Here are some other unisex sounding names that I like for girls:

Lane

Baylor/Bailey

Avery

Raleigh

Leighton

Blaire

Meredith (used to be a boy's name)

Mallory (used to be a boy's name, I think)

Chase

Brinkley

Peyton

Sloane

Tahoe

Winter

Chandler

Tatum

Reece

Good luck!

The only name I don't like is Brecken. I love Rae, tho. Everything else I think is great and I think you have good taste, but I just don't like Brecken. Can't put my finger on why, tho. Do you like Brock?

Congratulations! Oh my goodness, QUADRUPLETS!!!!

Just a thought on the unisex names. I don't mean to rain on your parade, but I would think it would be confusing for other people who are learning their names. You don't want to always be correcting people about who is who. There is much less chance for error if you use two boys names and two girls' names. Just something to consider if you haven't already.

Additionally, Brecken makes me think of Breckenridge, CO. Aspen, of course, makes me think of Aspen, CO. That's ok, if that's what you are going for, but if not, you might not want everyone also asking you what the Colorado connection is. Just another thought for you. Life is going to be tough enough with quadruplets (but wonderful!!!) You don't need people asking you irritating questions!

Good luck to you!

I liked them all except for Brecken. It doesn't sound like a girl name to me. I guess when I say it I think of Breck shampoo.

Sorry

I LOVE the names you have picked out! They all sound so good together. However, I'm not sure if I like the spelling Keeagan. I like it better spelled like: Keegan. That's just my opinion. But nonetheless, I love all those names! They sound so neat, and they're very unique. It's so exciting that you're having quads! Congrats!
