Hi! I'm jennifer and my DH and I are actually TTC #3. We have 2 DS's Hunter and Noah.We are confident we can soon add another this year (well at least be prego by then!) Anyways, we thought it is never too soon to start thinking of names. My DH is already done set on Peyton for a boy,it's his fav. football player and that name is fine w/ me. A girl name is what we're having trouble with. There are just soooo many we like. We are into different names that you don't hear too often but not ones that are far out there!:)
Some of the ones we like are:
Parker
Paige
Mckenna
Kamryn
Brynn
Do any of you like any of these names? Any input I'd love to hear!
Thankyou,
Jennifer

I really like all of your choices, but Mckenna is pretty popular as are the sound-alikes Mackenzie, McKayla, etc. My favoriets are (in order):
1.Brynn --> I prefer Brinly nn Brynn, but love both!
2.Kamryn -->for some reason this spelling looks awkward though... maybe Camryn??
3.Mckenna --> (see above)
4.Paige --> cute, but not sure how it will grow with her
5.Parker --> sounds too boyish and NMSAA for either sex
Some others you might like:
Jenna
Brielle
Peyton (you could still please your DH this way)
Mallory
Kendyl
Parker- i think it is too boy-ish. just not a pretty girl name.
Paige- i love the name! i think it would sound great with her bro's.
Mckenna- like it.
Kamryn- love it! different, yet a little more feminine than parker
Brynn- beautiful!
from your list...my favs would be (with mn's) Kamryn Paige or Mckenna Brynn

Parker for a girl????? I hope that one's not becoming unisex. Peyton is unisex, but I do like it better for a boy. but if you have a girl and you're thinking #3 is your final, why not use Peyton for the girl too.
of your girls list I far prefer Paige the best. Kamryn and McKenna are becoming pretty common, Brynn is OK, not crazy for it
here are some I think would match up with Hunter and Noah: Amber, Aubrey, Ariel, Brenna (close to Brynn), Courtney, Cara, Dannah, Delaney, Janna, Kyndle, Kara, Kelsey, Maura or Moira, Piper, Rayna, Reegan or Raegan, Sienna, Teegan or Taegan, Whitney.
good luck
I have a question regarding the boy name. My husband loves Braylon, after a college football player Braylon Edwards. I'm more of a conventional/biblical name person. His name is Edward (Eddie) and I'm Sara. I really like Grace for a girl, and when we have a girl it will be Grace. But we're having a boy now and I like Luke a lot but he loves Braylon, which I just don't know if I can hang with. But you said you're okay w/ Peyton which is also not so conventional and after a football player and I thought you might be able to relate and give input. What do you think about this name? I'm also kind of big on what the name means and/or if the name is after someone, what that person stands for, etc. Any advise?
By the way, I like Kamryn a lot.
Amber
Believe me, it did take a while and my family's opinion of the name Peyton. I had just never heard it before and I had to sit and think okay, what is it going to be like when someone asks me his name. Would I be embarassed to tell them because I was afraid they'd be like WHAT??? So you should try to imagine what it be like being outside and yelling "Braylon, time to eat!" If you do that and it absolutley can't stand the thought then I'd try another name I'm sure your DH would understand. I really like the name Luke too! We didn't really pick Noah because it was from the bible. It was between Cameron and Noah and after I delivered him, we both thought he looks just like a Noah! My family agrees. I do like Braylon! I have a thing w/ different names not too far out there but names you don't hear too often. I bet if you name your baby boy Braylon you'll start hearing it more often. I do know it is on baby name sites I've seen it. Sorry I can't remember the exact name of it, but there are sooo many of them. Also sorry my message is so long!! GL:)

Parker-this is for a little girl right???
Paige-never liked it
Mckenna-is this a family surname? If not, then I don't suggest using it. Surnames are called surnames for a reason.
Kamryn-only if it is spelled correctly, and even then it is not one of my favourites.
Brynn-nice name
Diane
