Names!

My boy will be Theodore. Teddy or Theo for short :-D

I really wanted Theodore for a boy, but dh shot it down. I think we will go with Charles (Charlie) or Samuel. Not sure about middle name, and trying not to think about girl names (don't want to get my hopes up) but I do like Iris.

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.

Jadis love the name Leonard...I agree with cvd...keep pitching, lol. Both my hubby and son's middle names are Leonard so I am a bit bias.

Cvd I like Aubrey for a boy or girl. I'm strange like that though! Love unique and different names. Love that it is a family name also! I haven't told hubby yet but if this baby is a girl her middle name will be Lillian or Lilliana which was his granny's name :-)

I agree, I like Aubrey for a boy (in fact, I don't know any Aubreys, boy or girl) and think it's a great name. I also like Avery. How do you pronounce Auden?

Thank you ladies!!! And jennaesue pronounced like aw-den!

WHat about Alden? I think Auden might get mean nicknames because it sounds like "odd". Aubrey would be fine for a boy, too, even though it is sometimes a girl name. But then so are Taylor and Emerson, and I know (of) boys named both of those things as well.

How about Ainsley? Aubrey is nice for a boy though :-)

I absolutely LOVE the name Charlie. I actually have a really special chicken (a hen) that is my sidekick and I named her Charlie Apple. ;) I'm quirky like that, but does it ever fit her!
