A Name Game - What's your Opinion?

[ProudArmyWife]

Just wanted to get others opinions on some baby names

What do you think?

[khkhk]

For boys, I like the name Jesse, Joseph, Paul, James, Andrew, Tony, and Alexei. (I like lots, but those are some of my faves) Girls, I like Krystal, and Sasha...Again, I like lots, but those are some of my favorites.

How about Anthony for a first name? I love that. And if you like Franciscan Saints - a real good one would be: Francis Anthony. I'm not fond of Tyler. It reminds of Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. I like the name Ryan if it is a family name - but I rather lean to saints names for babies. What a great legacy as a catholic family.
Or for a girl Francis Clare, Mary Francis. Or my very favorite: Elizabeth Mary.
I'm not very fond of contemporary trendy names for babies.

Good luck picking one out! How fun! All I've ever named are horses, puppies, and kittens!

Just some ideas from my own family genealogy.

Me: Edwin Joseph
My brothers: Edward John, John Joseph
My mother Caroline Goldie
My father same as my younger brother John

My brother's children: Candice Marie, James Michael

If I had children:
Benjamin Michael
Mark Jeffrey
Geoffrey or Jeffrey James
Kevin Matthew
Xavier Martin
Caroline Marie
Stephanie Ann(e)
Catherine Lynn
Roberta Jean

Mostly traditional names, I really do not like all the trendy names with the alternative spellings.

I like Ryan Anthony, that is so weird though, because my name is Ryan, and my favorite Saint is St. Anthony

Katharine Grace

Had Katharine come as half of a girl/girl set of twins, her sister would've been named Elizabeth Faith. If we'd had a boy/boy set, we got as far as picking Matthew for the first name but didn't settle on a middle name--fortunately, we got word that we had at least one girl in there (they were frank and footling breech--and a frank breech is *very* easy to tell gender via ultrasound), so we didn't have to come up with a full second boy's name. For me, girl names seem to come much easier, which must be why I have mostly boys.

I'm married to a Michael Anthony (so as you can see, a fair amount of shameless name-stealing). I've got a very strong preference for traditional names vs. anything trendy.

I picked Tyler and Delaney..

But what about Dylan Nicole...( Dylan can be used for a girls name)

[Ana]

I think you have chosen beautiful names, although I am not particularly fond of Mae (love Mary though)

My favorite names are my children's:

Geoffrey Todd

Raquel Elizabeth

Layna Renee

My passing fancy right now, (as in, if I had a little girl I would name her.....)

..... Aubrey.

[Tinkerbell]

How about
Boy: Jack Anthony
Girl: Laura Ann

[Church Militant]

I like Delaney, but if Irish is your plan for the middle name and Mary is the goal...how about Delaney Moire?

My current favorite Irish boy's name is Collin Seamus

[SeekerJen]

We've already got some names picked out for our future brood. Apparently our first boy will be named Samuel Brooks (Samuel after my husband's great-grandfather, Brooks is the middle name that the oldest boy in each branch of hubby's family receives). I'm leaning toward Cecilia Rose for our first daughter (after my patroness St. Cecilia, and the roses of Our Lady and St. Therese). I also like Emily, Kathleen, Grace, David, Sebastian (after my grandfather), and Matthew.
