We don't know what we are having, so we need to plan on a boys name and a girls name.
We have two daughters-Keegan Ann and Kenzie Alayna. Our last name is Burd.
Here is my current list of favorites:

Boys- Andrew (DH's middle name), Jacob (nn Coby), Shawn, Cameron, Michael, Kyler, Logan

Girls- Jacey, Kelly, Kaitlyn (nn Katie or Katey), Jessica (nn Jess), Kiera or Kieran, Kylie or Kiley

I'd love some opinions here. DH and I can't really decide on a favorite. We'll find a middle name after we choose a first name. Ann was chosen because it is my mn name and both Grandma's middle names and DH's middle name is Andrew. Alayna is after my husband Layne. So, we want to pick a family name for the middle name for this one too. I'd also like any other suggestions anyone may have for names that would work, although for all the research I've done, I'm not sure there is a name out there I haven't considered. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

I would say all nice. I like Kyler, Kiley, and Kaitlyn the least (but I do like other names w/Katie as nn)

I would say my tops are . Shawn. michael and Andrew and girls: Kiera and Kelly

I love Logan for a boy and Jacey for a girl. Jacey was one of my choices but hubby didnt like it. Don't use any of the K names for girls, I am a dance teacher and they are WAY to popular, although my mother loved the name Kiley which was also on my list, but I never really favored the name.

If you are not set on having 3 K names I would advise against it. I cannot imagine the confusion when you are yelling, "Keegen, Kenzie, Kiley (Kyler, Kelly, whatever)get in here!"

I really like Andrew and Michael. Logan is nice to, but I don't like it as well as the others.

Jacey seems so nicknamey to me, I don't think it would grow very well. Jessica is nice. Some other similar options:
Jillian
Josphine (nn Josie)
Jolie
Julia/Juliet/Juliette
Georgia

For boys, I like Andrew Kyler. It's the reverse of the K.A. initials, but still includes a family name and ties in with the other two names. I like nn Drew. Keegan, Kenzie and Drew sounds nice as does Keegan, Kenzie and Andrew.

Other combos I like are Andrew Michael, Shawn Michael and Kyler Logan.

For girls, I like Kiera best if you're sticking with the K theme. Otherwise I like Jessica. Keegan, Kenzie and Jessi is cute.
