Idea for first name!
| Mon, 10-11-2004 - 1:07pm |
Hi everyone! I'm looking for ideas for both boys and girl names. My husband is very picky. He doesn't like anything to "strange". So, far the only thing we have agree on is the middle name. My last name begins with an 'S'.
Girl MN- Elizabeth (after his grandmother)
Boy MN- John (after my grandfather and father)
Some names we have though of so far are....
Jordan, Paige, Delaney
Joshua, Owen, Jack (but its my parents dogs name), Sam (but its my brother's dogs name)
My nephews/neices names are Emma Reanne, Camden Robinson (Scottish Sir Name), Marissa Mae, and Tyler Joseph.
Thanks,
Kristi

Joshua John and Owen John sound great together
there are variations you could use, and not be too unusual.
how about
Jackson
Jaxon
Jacob
Jake
Samuel
Samson
Solomon
Simon
Seth
Sawyer
Of the girl names you've thought of, I'd scratch Jordan. I've just heard it too much. I know three Jordan Elizabeths!
Paige is beautiful and grows up well with a girl. Nice choice.
I love Delaney. Delaney Elizabeth is a little long though...
Scratch Jack & Sam unless the dogs are really old and will be gone soon. These are dog names to me, anyway. I can say this b/c my name is Ginger. Now, thank goodness, Ginger has dropped in popularity as a dog name. BUT, when I was growing up, there was a family pet named Ginger at everyone's house, and everyone thought it was so funny... There are stronger names out there for your son that sound similar w/o being so "pettish." What about Jackson John? Or Samuel John? And don't shorten?
Joshua John- pretty good, but a little rhymey
Owen John- Very nice, this one is really growing in popularity though
Do you mind a popular name?
Others that seem to be in keeping with your style-
Girls- Laurel Elizabeth, Jillian Elizabeth, Maryn Elizabeth, Ragan Elizabeth, Sage Elizabeth, Cassidy Elizabeth, Raina Elizabeth
It seems you like short, simple, strong boy names...you could do a more formal name and use a nickname-
Boys- Lucas John (Luke), Nathaniel John(Nate), Patrick John(Pate), Graham John(Gray), Andrew John(Drew), Daniel John(Dane), William John(Liam), Theodore John(Theo)---Some of these have really great meanings too!
I also like Rowan John, Asher John, Alec John, Christian John, Adam John & Erik John.
Hope this helps! Keep us updated! Take care, Ginger
As for boys names, I'm at a loss. Robert John is the only one I can come up with.
Good luck!

Jack and Sam are both popular for dogs and kids, lol. I'd put Max in that same catagory. I don't think I would use either of those since they do have a pet conncetion for you. Owen and Joshua are both nice.
