Which name for baby boy?

I love both these names but they are completely different vibes for me. Is Hugo too posh? Is Cormac too rugged? Need opinions.

No one in my family likes my baby name :(

I don’t want to confirm what it is because I dont want them to see me being sad on here but the name is similar to Callum. It’s not a weird name or spelling. I’m just so sad

How do we feel about Elmer “Elm”?

What are your thoughts on Elmer and calling him by the nickname “Elm”?
I could see it being cute on a baby and older man, not sure how I feel about it on a teenager…

Girl names

Which do you prefer? We are looking for something a little unusual.

Question

Is it really highly recommended to name identical twins with a diff first initial? or not a big deal, i mean if it’s very helpful i’m gonna do it though i just heard mix things 😆

We have three more months to choose a name for our second and I would love some ideas!
We want a name that our German families can pronounce so nothing with a “th” sound. We do like classic names but would prefer nothing extremely popular like Emma.
Our first is called “Erwin”.

Some names we love are:
Edmund
Hector
Alfred
Edgar

And for girls names:
Margot
Mathilde
Maeve and Meredith (not suitable as it would be pronounced wrongly but I love it)
(not intentionally M names, open to all letters lol)
Hedwig (love, also like Harry Potter but wouldn’t use due to the association)

Can’t decide on a name!!

Anyone else really struggling to agree on a name?
I’m 4 weeks away from my due date and me and my partner have a couple of ideas but nothing solid.

Another Boy!

We found out this week we’re having another baby boy and I am lost on names.

My oldest is named Kendrick Joseph, Joseph being a family name on both sides.

I like the names Sterling and Kingston, but my husband isn’t sold on either one.

Suggestions?

Girl names

Which one you think is nicer:
Frances is the name of my mom and that will stay 😁
If you want share a name your think is pretty, not too common though like Mia or Olivia. Thank you 😊

Due in 3 weeks, which name?!

Her middle name will be Alison. We had made our decision on Lily, but now we’re second thinking! 🤦🏼‍♀️ which one do you prefer?

I need baby girl names

We are so lost on girl names. Our daughter is named Rya and we love her name how unique it is yet beautiful.

So far we have:

Esme
Leilani

I’m not in love with either of them. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance💜

Other names we have considered but decided no:

Zuri
Luna
Lilo
Veda

Suggestions please!

I have a three year old called Callie, and she’s going to be a big sister in September. I love her name so much, and it’s made me feel so worried that I won’t be able to find another name that works as perfectly as the one we have already!
Any suggestions for girl names to go with Callie - so I’d prefer names that don’t end in ‘ie’, and names that don’t start with C.
Thanks in advance!

Middle name help. (Girl)

First name will begin with an E.
Deciding between two names still.
One is a two syllable name and the other a 3 syllable.

w names for boys

what are some of your favorite or different/unique “w” names for boys? brother’s name is wylie

girl names

im due a baby girl in just over a month and would love some name suggestions please!

I’ve wanted a girl all my life and now I’m having one I’m struggling so bad to find a name!

I always loved Bella, but my sister called her daughter Isabella and I think it’s too close…

I’m English and my partner is German so I’m looking at names from both cultures. Our list so far is…

Leni
Ella
Lilli
Lyra
Keira

I don’t absolutely love any of them any thoughts and suggestions would be very welcome!! 💕

More name suggestions

Ive been looking everywhere mainly on pinterest thats where I find the best names but none are sticking yet. Would love for people to drop in names they love that I could potentially use. Don’t know baby’s gender yet but we are thinking it’s a boy.

Gwyneth?

We love the name Gwyneth, but do not like Gwyneth Paltrow. If we name our daughter Gwyneth do you think people will think we like Gwyneth Paltrow? Is the association too strong? I feel like she isn't famous enough for it to really matter, but Gwyneth Paltrow is probably the only "Gwyneth" that most people know.
