    Names!

    So now that we found out we are having a boy - we are thinking of names! We only had a girl name picked out, Aubree, which I absolutely LOVED. So far, I like Auden. It's similar to Aubree. Or I am even considering Aubrey, which is the "boy" spelling for the name (my grandfather's middle name was this, which would be neat). Other then that we can't find anything we even kinda like LOL we want something uncommon but not weird. Ryder isn't common where we are, but it's not strange like the names you see online when you search "uncommon boy names". Auden is different but so similar to Aiden that I don't think it's weird!

    How are you ladies coming with your name choices?? Those who have had their gender ultrasounds, do you have anything picked out for your little one????

    Our family is now complete - no more babies for us. We didn't get our girl but I wouldn't trade my boys for the world, so in love.

    Well - are you going to try for another one after this? because then you might want to stay away form Aubrey if that's your girl name?

    I do think Aubrey would work well for a boy and I do like it better than Auden, if I'm honest!

    I'm not preggers, but we've already got our boy name settled (ok, OH didn't have a choice lol). Girl name is more tricky as he wants one that will cause huge drama in my family although it will probably end up being that anyway! Hope it's ok I answered xD

    I like the idea of using 'Aubrey', CVD. I think it's interesting that it's your grandfather's middle name, which gives it a bit of family history. We're coming along with names, we've agreed on Margaret for a girl but can't agree on a boy's name. I'm pitching 'Leonard' over and over again, I'm just hoping that my DH will come around and start liking it. I like the short form of Leo or Lenny. Coming up with middle names will be tough as we only use middle names that begin with A's. DS1 is Owen Andrew and DS2 is Simon Alexander. I like Leonard Adam or Leonard Aiden for this one if it's a boy or Margaret Amy for a girl. What do you think? I'm the same as you-I want something different and I like old names. For me, there's nothing cuter than an old man name for a little boy. The kinda name that makes you think that kid wears a bowtie and suspenders.

    We aren't having another! Which is why I kinda wanna go with that name because I loved it so much haha but now we've related AUBREE so much to a girl it's hard to picture it for a boy I guess, but we are trying to see if we still like it. Hope you get a BFP soon!

    Interesting that it is your grandfather's name but all the Aubrey's I know are girls now and they spell it Aubrey. I do love using family names though.

    Asher?
    Aaron?
    Austin?

    I would reserve Aubrey in case you have another!

    Hehe keep pitching! He will come around I noticed that with my DH, he hated Aubree but I just kept at it, then he ended up loving it! Aw I think both those names go SO well with your other 2. Love the nn Leo & the middle names with A's is really sweet as well. I can't wait to find out what you having!
    My DS's middle name is Valentine, super strange but getting married and changing my last name was hard for me so I had to put it somewhere, our married name is too long to hyphenate! I have no idea what middle name we will use this time! Hm. Name picking was so easy last time.. Ryder was the third name we mentioned, I hate the search!!!

    I like Asher, Archer and Axel, they were all the names I liked when deciding on a boys name. Ryder was also on my list
