Names!!!

We're getting really close to nailing down some names, but we want to hear from you! Now is your chance to tell us what you think we should name our next baby!!!

Leave us your ideas of both girl and boys names that go with Samuel and Joseph in the comments section of this post. (We're mostly interested in girls names).

As Joseph would say 'redy...doe!' (ready, go!)

*If we choose your name, you just might get a prize :)

Hey guys! As I was about to check your blog, I was trying to remember if you guys "find out" the sex beforehand...ok, so here are my suggestions:
Boy:Luke (I also like William:)
Girl:Caroline
Mostly b/c you guys are pretty traditional namers...I don't see a Geraldo in your future!!! Can't wait to hear!

1. Noah --for a girl! (its in Genesis as a girl!)

2. Sera (girl)

3. Felicity

Teal, I love all of those names. You have nailed down our style!
And yes, we do find out the sex.

You're right, no Geraldo.

Alana, I've never heard of Noah for a girl. That's pretty cool.

My eleven-year-old son, Noah, has a friend with the same name and she is a girl.

I like Caroline. One of our clients named her daughter HannahBeth Caroline and I love it. My middle name is Carol though, so it is nice to hear those old names that still aren't even common among families who choose more traditional names.

Blessings.

Some of the names we considered for our little girl were Charlotte, Lydia, Paisley and Caroline.

Amy said...

Oh wow, our number one name right now is on your list!!! Are you sharing what the name you decided on is? I'd love to hear since we obviously like the same names :)

Jennifer said...

My top girl names were: Elizabeth, Lucy, Caroline, and Lillian (Lily)

Boy names I like and haven't used yet: Luke, Gabriel, Josiah, and Judah

Keep us posted!

Have a blessed Christmas!

Amy said...

Jen- We LOVE ALL of those names. So neat! Elizabeth and Lillian have been our tops names for every pregnancy!!!

What nicknames were you thinking of for Elizabeth? That's my thing... I can't think of any that I 'love'.

A long long time ago Lily was a nickname for Elizabeth. Seems far fetched but I love it. Not sure how others would think though.

Anyways... thanks for your thoughts... Have an awesome Christmas!!!

My middle name is Elizabeth and so is Matt's little sister's. He says the best nickname for Elizabeth is "Lizard Breath," which is what he called his little sister!

I like Eliza and Beth, both! Lily is adorable, and nicknames are not always perfectly logical. My dad's name is William, but he is called Bill and many Richards go by the nickname Dick.

I know God will lead you to the perfect name for His precious little one!

I like Elizabeth too! Joseph and Samuel are both biblical names. So I like a biblical name for a girl too. Libby is also a nickname for Elizabeth. I agree...nicknames are not always logical, so call her what you like!!! I think it's a boy though!!:)Denise

Denise, I'm going to have to find that video that we taped of everyone and their predictions of when our next babies would come and what they would be. I think you said like 2 years ago that our next would be a boy, but the one after that would be a girl :)

We shall see!!!

One of Leslie's friends is named Elizabeth and she goes by Betts, which I always thought was cute. I love Elizabeth and Hannah. I knew a girl in college named Micah and always thought that was pretty, too. For a boy, Noah, Zachary, or Alexander. You know I am a letters person, so Alex (A) would be the same number of letters from J (Joseph) as J is from S (Samuel). I know it's silly!

Amy said...

I love Hannah too, but I'm stuck because Hannah was Samuel's mother in the Bible. I don't know if that matters or not, but the names are so closely linked. Do you think that should matter???
