Cute name that you've chosen for a boy, Toni! As for suggestions from me, I'd be no good. We've slacked on the name front big time . Murphy's law, we had a boys name picked from day one, but choosing a second girls name is HARD! We did entertain the name Caitlyn (or a various spelling of it). I like Ashlee and Caitlyn together but I'm not 100% on it (just as I'm not 100% on any of the names that DH and I remotely agree on!!!). I really like Caitlyn and Renae. That's adorable!]]> Sun, 29 Mar 2009 17:40:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=647955&title=dh-and-baby-names#647955 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : ooh Lilyan Marie IS pretty........]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=645728&title=dh-and-baby-names#645728 Author: caitlynsmygirl

Boys names we struggled with , but im happy with our choice, I was a bit unsure at first (my favourite boys names would either be Caden , or Ryan Luka) but Tyler has grown on me now .
Still better than Ryan MacGuyver .


Hehehehe Caden is an awesome name Tyler was on our list when I was pregnant with Caden.

We are happy with our girls name, so we just have to think of a middle name for her.

I like Lilyan Kate, or Lilyan Marie but not sure yet.

Hehe, I like the name Samantha/Sam..that was Alyssa Milano's characters name on Whose the boss, although shortened to "Sam". Obviously I stuck with Alyssa :) I quite like girls name that shorten to boyish names though..

When I read your favourites list from the first page, for some reason I can picture you calling out to your girls playing outside to go inside "Caaaaitliiiiin, Renaaaaeeee"..they go well together

My little brother had cute little blonde ringlets, a lot of cheek, and he was a Davy. I thought it was a pretty cute name. I'd use it if it didn't already belong to him

DH and I have been tossing the odd name around, but we'll get more serious once we are pg. No doubt there'll be some arguments too. I've already told him that I'm going to break the tradition that goes back hundreds of generations in his family and if we have a boy it won't get DH's first name. He's ok with that, but I'm not sure how the rest of the family will react. ]]> Fri, 20 Mar 2009 10:50:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640656&title=dh-and-baby-names#640656 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : We have our girls name sorted...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640557&title=dh-and-baby-names#640557 Author: Mum_mum

We have our girls name sorted - DH thought of it ages ago and i just love it so that is what our girl will be called. We will prolly use my middle name for a girl which is Katy, i would like that as a family name and also my best friend is called Katie so suits.

Boys are another story - we have the middle name sorted which will be William as that is a family name from DH' side and is DH's middle name. He wants to name our boy Dave.... i like Dave as a name but not for a tiny little baby! Its just too manly, we could call it Davie when its little but i still don't like it!]]> Fri, 20 Mar 2009 09:14:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640557&title=dh-and-baby-names#640557 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : Me and my partner have already...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640496&title=dh-and-baby-names#640496 Author: Oxy

when I was thinking of a name I could only think of a girl's name no boys names "jumped out at me"

when I told DH the name I had for a girl ..he "approved" his only criteria for a name was that it didnt have some bad memory associated with it..for eg if there was a girl called Sarah he didnt like then he wouldnt want to name our child that.

I did tell him to think of a boy's name (we didn't know what we were having) not sure if we will use that if #2 is a boy]]> Fri, 20 Mar 2009 01:07:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640475&title=dh-and-baby-names#640475 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : We had such a tough time finding...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640433&title=dh-and-baby-names#640433 Author: BaAsKa

We had such a tough time finding names for our boys! with Bailey i wasnt all that fussed on it but after many a name arguments DH liked it so it stuck and it went the oposite with Astin - i liked it and DH sort of did but went with it anyway.
This time neither of us has really put much effort into it! wev come up with names and then both gotten sick of them!!! whether they be boy or girl! lol
At the mo we are onto Coree for a girl.

i think it may take a while after bubs is born to finally name it!!! poor thing!!!]]> Thu, 19 Mar 2009 22:18:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640433&title=dh-and-baby-names#640433 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : Hehe Manda, RUOK..

I'm lucky that my DH loves my daughters name as much as I do.

Totally understand where you are coming from! Boys name is sorted, but girls!!!!

We have now started all over again.

I have just gone through the name book for the millionth time and written down 20 girls names. DH is to do the same. Once he has we will read both lists and write down any that are the same. We will then take the others list and what is left we will cull by half and then switch and halve again and so on until we have a list of 5 or 6.

It will be nice to have a short list before baby is born!

Boys have such weird ideas on names!!!]]> Thu, 19 Mar 2009 19:00:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=640224&title=dh-and-baby-names#640224 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : Peanut wrote:... his reply...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639954&title=dh-and-baby-names#639954 Author: Andie

My DH knew from the start what I'd name a boy, so to seal the deal he sold me his soul... in exchange for him getting to buy the sound system he really wanted I got to name our son. Of course, he wouldn't have gone for that if he'd disliked the name (and I knew he'd end up buying the stuff at some point anyway), but still - anyone thought to try bribery? It might work!

Its the classic debate isnt it!!

We had a short list for both boys and girls, but once we found out that we were having a boy somehow that list changed?!?!?! Go figure. We had it narrowed down to 3 names, but waited until we met Oli to see what he "looked like"!!

I like really unusual girls names - DH just nods and says "thats nice dear"!

Peanut,

That's funny about your husband liking short names you can yell out like a farm dog.

My husband is a farmer so most short names one syllable names have already been used by various farm dogs he has owned or known of, and he also jokes about not wanting to 'waste' a good farm dog name on a child!]]> Thu, 19 Mar 2009 13:22:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639905&title=dh-and-baby-names#639905 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : I kind of decided on Jack&#039;s...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639863&title=dh-and-baby-names#639863 Author: myfullhouse

Classic discussion!

DH is soooo not interested in talking names, so much so that last time DS was unnamed for about 18 hours while we decided.

I would mention names to him and his reply was "pregnant woman should not be allowed to name children" as apparently they were all weird.

Then his deciding factor was it had to be short and easy to yell (like a farm dogs name apparently )

This time I have mention some names from last time and he is starting to like them so that is a bonus but we only ever have issues with boys names.]]> Thu, 19 Mar 2009 11:46:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639798&title=dh-and-baby-names#639798 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : caitlynsmygirl wrote: He wanted...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639788&title=dh-and-baby-names#639788 Author: LadyLizard

Thats hilarious! You def can't name your kid after MacGuyver, he would get too much sh*t at school! (Probably from all the 30 something teachers)

We are not naming our baby after any rock stars, sports stars, TV characters or anything like that.

I had decided long ago that my next daughter was Amelia , so DH didn't get a say .
Boys names tho, nearly every single name I mentioned he turned his nose up at , until I told him that if he continued to do so he could name the blimming baby HE gave birth too ,so we narrowed it down to three and finally agreed on this one.

He wanted to call our son Ryan MacGuyver, now I love the name Ryan, BUT I am not calling my son after some 80s hero with a mullet .

Men !

btw , if I can add my 2 cents (and Im gonna ) I think Caden and Olivia has a nice ring to it ]]> Wed, 18 Mar 2009 22:17:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639506&title=dh-and-baby-names#639506 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : Hehe I agree with Sheena.

DH and I have struggled with names too. More so boys than Girls. He has liked most of the girls names Ive suggested and we've narrowed the girls names to 2 which is great. But Boys, gah!

LMAO Shena makes me feel a bit better that the exact same conversations are being held in other people's houses!

My girls list is: (in order of favourites)
Renae
Leah
Sasha
Jenna
Sarah

I won't list the suggestions he's come up with as my reaction may offend those with the name

I love Liliana, it's unusual without being weird Not that the other names were weird! oh dear, I'll shut up now lol]]> Wed, 18 Mar 2009 21:11:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639433&title=dh-and-baby-names#639433 <![CDATA[DH and baby names : omg sounds like me and my DH!...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=25311&PID=639417&title=dh-and-baby-names#639417 Author: Shezamumof3

We've decided on a boys name, DH suggested it and I love it so that one was easy. That was a couple of weeks ago.

I just asked DH what he thought of my short list for girls names and he turned his nose up at all of them I then asked if he had any suggestions and this is what I got in reply

DH: I was thinking of a name, but it's just a suggestion, you don't have to love because I know you'll hate it, you always do when I suggest names

Me: so what's the name?

DH: Forget about it, you'll just hate it!

ME:

dumb @rse!
