Only 43 more days, huh? Exciting! It must be really neat having older siblings that are at the age of really understanding what's going on w/the new baby coming. A couple more brainstormers for names too! Where are you on the naming game, anyway? Got any narrowed down yet?
Anyway, my thoughts:
Avery James-Oh, it's nice to see Avery on a boy.
Eileen Victoria-CT is totally an area for baby boomer names I've noticed. It's great, really.
David Paul-This is nice.
Eden Elizabeth-Pretty.
Kate Rose-A bit choppy. I'd prerfer Kathleen Rose nn Kate.
Amy Mariella-Amy is cute.
Kaiden Alejandro-That's nms, & I can't believe that there are so many spellings for Caden.
Thys Bastiaan ( no typos in this)-I don't know about this.
Triplets: Hannah Alexis, Maya Julianna, & Isabella Kaitlyn-Those are nice for triplets. I just don't like Alexis.
Dwayne Ryan-Dwayne is nms. Ryan is better.
Lindsay Laura-I don't care for Lindsay.
Kimi Hart-Kimi? That's nms. I like Hart for a boy.
Elijah Joel-That's fine, but nms.
Maggie Joelle-Maggie is okay as a nn.
Rory Thomas-Oh, I like that!
Ingo Xavier-Hm. I don't know about Ingo, but this combination does seem to work.
Anya Greer-I love the Anya part.
Thanks for sharing.
I know Thys is Dutch and that is the authentic spelling of it. It is pronounced "Tice" to rhyme with "Rice" We have friends who are from the Netherlands and that is their son's name. It is also Matt Lauer's son's name. I believe his wife is Dutch.

Caroline Rebekah '98
Amelia Kate '03
Greta Lindsay '05
Wyatt Nathan '07
Avery James- I like Avery for a boy, quite handsome.
Eileen Victoria- Wow, haven't seen Eileen in a while! I'll give them that much.
David Paul- OK, but a bit boring for me.
Eden Elizabeth- Eh, OK. I guess I can't criticize Elizabeth too much (since it's my name and I do like it) but it has ALWAYS bothered me that every other girl I knew growing up had Elizabeth as their mn. Not sure why.
Kate Rose- Feels so choppy and incomplete. I would've liked Katherine Rose, Katarina Rose or Kate Rosalie, Kate Roseanna, etc. much better.
Amy Mariella- Amy is SO incredibly 80's to me, but Mariella is kinda pretty.
Kaiden Alejandro- Kaiden is just so trendy, but Alejandro is cool.
Thys Bastiaan ( no typos in this) - Wow! I'm not at all sure how to pron. Thys. Don't see the need for 2 A's in mn.
Triplets: Hannah Alexis, Maya Julianna, & Isabella Kaitlyn- All the names are a bit trendy overall for my tastes, but none are too bad. Julianna is the only of the 6 names I actually like.
Dwayne Ryan- Hopefully Dwayne is being used to honor someone, b/c it is very dated to me, and a little redneck due to personal associations :)
Lindsay Laura- Don't like the two L's, but both names themselves are OK. I really like Laura, actually.
Kimi Hart- Ugh, sounds like an exotic dancer or porn star. Kimi reminds me of the neighbor from Full House. I'm hoping Hart is a family name.
Elijah Joel- Very J-heavy, but overall pretty nice!
Maggie Joelle- I prefer Maggie as a nn, but Joelle is pretty.
Rory Thomas- Cute! I personally can't picture Rory as an adult businessman or anything, though.
Ingo Xavier- Never heard Ingo before. I like Xavier quite a bit.
Anya Greer- Very pretty! I like both names, and it's an interesting combo.
Thanks for sharing Donna! I can't believe it's getting so close for you! Hope you're feeling well,
Liz

Thanks belle_petite for the siggy!
Avery James~~~I do not even sort of like avery on boys or girls so ICK
Eileen Victoria~~~Pretty
David Paul~~~Dislike David but nice nameoverall
Eden Elizabeth~~Love it.
Kate Rose~~Simple and pretty
Amy Mariella~~~I would like Mariella better in FN position, its so pretty!
Kaiden Alejandro~~~Ick on kaiden....
Thys Bastiaan ( no typos in this)
~~~I guess that is Theese, like Reese/Rhys? I'm sure if this name is said correctly (ie native tongue) its not bad.
Triplets: Hannah Alexis, Maya Julianna, & Isabella Kaitlyn
~~~They are an alright group. Pretty safe names.
Dwayne Ryan
~~~NMS
Lindsay Laura
~~~Lindsay is nice, don't like the double L's
Kimi Hart
~~~Hope that is the NN!
Elijah Joel
~~~Great name
Maggie Joelle
~~~What's it with Maggie becoming a stand-alone name? Margaret Joelle is just as nice and her NN would be Maggie Jo! I would LOVE that, this I only Like
Rory Thomas
~~~Ick
Ingo Xavier
~~~I think its kinda cool.
Anya Greer
~~~Love it
Avery James ~ok. Have seen Avery for too many girls though.
Eileen Victoria ~don't really care for this combination at all. "Eileen" brings to mind a red-headed freckle face, but not Victoria. It just seems odd to me.
David Paul ~horrendously BORING!!! Nice names, just boring.
Eden Elizabeth ~not a fan of both names starting with the same letter.
Kate Rose ~don't like Kate as a fn at all, only a nn.
Amy Mariella ~Love Mariella- really can't stand "Amy".
Kaiden Alejandro ~yuck! These names don't go together in the same way that Eileen and Victoria don't. Kaiden sounds like a cutesy boy and Alejandro sounds like something for a dark brooding type.
Thys Bastiaan ( no typos in this) ~no thanks.
Triplets: Hannah Alexis, Maya Julianna, & Isabella Kaitlyn ~fine. Just a little boring.
Dwayne Ryan ~don't care for Dwayne at ALL
Lindsay Laura ~there's that allieration again.

Maggie Joelle ~what is with these people picking nn for fn's? dont' like it.
Rory Thomas ~it's okay. Prefer Rory for a girl.
Ingo Xavier ~interesting!
Anya Greer ~kind of like it.
Avery James- I like it. I prefer Avery for a boy rather than for a girl.
Eileen Victoria- Pretty, but I wouldn't choose this.
David Paul- OK. Sort of plain, but a classic.
Eden Elizabeth- I so LOVE Eden. If my last name didn't end in a similar sound, that would be on my list.
Kate Rose- Love the first name, LOL, but would have preferred a 2-3 syllable mn.
Amy Mariella-don't like how the M sounds run together.
Kaiden Alejandro- don't like it at all.
Thys Bastiaan ( no typos in this)- Is it pronounced This? Theese? Yuck!
Triplets: Hannah Alexis, Maya Julianna, & Isabella Kaitlyn- Names are OK, nothing special.
Dwayne Ryan- don't like this fn at all.
Lindsay Laura- Sounds like a soap opera name to me.
Kimi Hart- Sounds like a stripper name to me.
Elijah Joel- Don't like the J sounds together.
Maggie Joelle- cute.
Rory Thomas- Just okay, not my style.
Ingo Xavier- I like Xavier.
Anya Greer- I just don't like the name Anya.
Avery James - This is a nice name.
Eileen Victoria - I would have preferred Victoria Eileen, but I don't hate this.
David Paul - This is pretty plain.
Eden Elizabeth - I'm not crazy about Eden, and I'm really not crazy about the double E's.
Kate Rose - Pretty but just doesn't grab your attention.
Amy Mariella - These names don't really match at all to me.
Kaiden Alejandro - I dislike this spelling of Caden intensely.
