We have a son and daughter and pretty easily named them.

Carson Moore, and Karly Maryann

I love your boy choice. Reece Joseph is very nice and matches well with your other two kids. Layne Turner is nice, but it reminds me a lot of Lana Turner. Probably not an issue in everyday life - but I'd thought I'd point it out.


Brooke is one of my favorites. How about Brooke Alayna? Brooke Annelise is very pretty too, if you choose to do a non-family name. I also like Brooke Eden (for Edie) or Brooke Helen.


You could use Reece as a middle name for a girl, if you choose a longer first name.


Other first name choices:


Josie (after Joseph)
Jenna
Erika
Lydia
Delaney
Paige
Alyssa
Aubrey
Jillian

Honestly though, if you really love Brooke, use it. In 2006, it was #44 nationally, so it could be worse.

This is pretty crazy b/c a few of the names you listed I really like and have considered (but forgot to mention or I have more reservations about)!

Oh, I've given much thought to the fact that kids also have the same middle initials!

Yes, that is what I tell myself about Brooke.

How about Mara Brooke (Mara can be for Martha) then you get a family name plus a name you love, but Brooke won't be in the FN spot in case it gets too popular for you.

I think I would avoid another name starting with "C/K" or at least starting with "Car/Kar."
