I voted for Thaddeus, but your whole list is great. ;)

Comments (let me start by saying I actually like every name on here LOL):

Joel -- seems a bit abrupt next to Lillian and Naomi
Simon -- Good fit, but I like a few others from this list better
Owen -- love the name, but not sure if I like that it has the prominent O sound from Naomi AND the N ending like Lillian, KWIM?
Elijah -- not my favorite from this list, but still good
Oliver -- Good match. I love the subtle Biblical connection like your girls' names. I could have easily voted for this one as well
Thaddeus -- GMV. I like the fact that you hear it less often than some of the others, and I've always loved the name. Also a great match with your girls
Colin -- seems less "thought-out" than your girls names, if that makes any sense. Not my favorite for you
Elliot -- again, this one was right up there with Thaddeus for me. I nearly voted for it, but chose Thaddeus over it thanks to the double Ls (like Lillian's name). Still, if this ends up being your favorite, I don't think it's a deal-breaker at all
Caleb -- great with your girls' names. It's right behind Thaddeus, Elliot and Oliver for me

FWIW, another three-syllable name seems great with Lillian and Naomi.

Lillian, Naomi and ...

Thaddeus
Elliot
Oliver

Again, great list. ;)

I had wanted to say that I think I agree with just about all of your comments.

I think, well I'm hoping DH will give me a fairly definite soon, and then I will share his name "officially" with everyone.

Thanks,
Karen

I voted for Joel, but also think Caleb sounds nice with your DD's names.
