Down to 4 names... I don't know

My 3 boys are:
Patrick, Thomas (Tommy) & Dylan

I'm thinking for #4:

Ethan, Bryant, Liam or Colin


Middle name will be Michael, which doesn't help because it goes with all names.

????

There are so many Ethan's!! I do like Liam, but I also like Bryant cause it's that little bit more unique.

Sorry, not much help! I'm lost if we do have boy number 7! :worry:

Our boys are: Nathan, Adam, Joshua, Zachary, Mitchell and Cayden. :)

I know, I hear there are so many Liam's and Ethan's but I personally do not know any and none of our friends/family have any.
Although, a gf of mine mentioned that b/c its only become this popular name in the past 3-4 years or so - I had all my boys before that so maybe I'm just surrounded by those older boys. Once I start getting into the little kids and preschool again in 3 years there may be swarms of Ethan's and Liam's.
It stinks cause I really like those names -- wish they weren't so popular.

I really like Ethan and Colin. Do you watch swamp people? One of Troy's boys is nammed Chase Michael and they call him by both names and I love it!! I told DH if this is a boy, I want to pick some really traditional names since our others are little different.

Ooooo....I like the name Chase, but my DH doesn't.

Colin Michael does sound good together. :)

Saying them all together, I like Ethan and Colin. Ethan was on our very very short list and I only didn't pick it b/c of the popularity -- BUT I found a place (baby center? forget where) where they showed the popularity by US state and it really varied. Where I lived, it turned out Ethan wasn't in the top 5, which explained why I knew NONE of them.

Btw - absolutely love love your new siggy. Go you mama!!!!!!!

Bryant.....hands down!!! It sounds lovely with your other lads' names. Both of my boys have very common middle names matched with unique first names....in terms of style, your 2 oldest have quite classic names and your Dylan needs a Bryant.

On a side note, I was thinking of you last night (((hugs))) and <3!!!!!

Love all of them, I'm no help!

I like Liam!!
And so happy you'll try for 5:)
Glad you're back:)

5 is my limit for sure!!! I've done a lot of thinking - and this has definitely been one of the most changing experiences of my life.
I knew another boy could happen, I just never thought it would -- kwim? I figured after all I had been through to have a dd, that the universe would gift her to me. Like if I could just let go, she would come...and it took me so long and so much emotionally to even be able to let go.
I have to be honest, I don't believe in much anymore. I have no faith in anything -- I feel like if you want something you have to make it happen - create your own luck cause this world won't gift it to you (at least not me). I am excited to meet my new little man - but I still hold a place in my heart for a dd.
My ivf/pgd cycles weren't successful because my best embryos were always boys. In both 3rd and 4th cycle (good ones with new RE), 3rd had 6 normal, 2 xx 4 xy: transferred 2 xx and bfn. Out of the 6 they were the worst 2 embryos and 3 of my xy's were great! 4th cycle I only had 3 normal xy and no xx -- they said if I had transferred 2 xy I would probably have twins because they were sooo good.
I feel like the only way I have a fighting chance at the dd is do Microsort 1st on his sperm and get rid of all this boys and that way I am only dealing with girl embryos and actually have a chance that my 1 or 2 really good eggs are xx.
We'll see what happens. My luck, out of 10 embryos 9 will be xx's and the 1 xy will be the best one. Either that or when I transfer I won't even get pg. But I'm not sure that I could ever have a dd on my own now - with 4 boys and dominating boys in my ivf cycles...if I try naturally even with swaying my chances of having a 5th boy are soooo high and with my no luck, I would definitely be the swaying opposite even with the most incredible sway out there.
Truly, I feel like I have little faith now and don't count the future ivf cycle being successful. I'm slowly coming to that true realization that more than likely I will never meet my daughter, and I'm trying to learn to let go and let the 4 beautiful healthy boys I've been given fill my whole heart and be everything I'll ever need. I'm trying...
