Hope it's a boy...

Could you guys reply with your favorite names for girls? We can't agree on ANYTHING for a girl so far. I guess I shouldn't be worrying about this yet since we'll find out next week the sex of the baby, but I'm kind of afraid of what it might end up being named if it's a girl

Ok, now I'm REALLY scared about the kid's name! :)

Abigail is cute...just not my fave. Laura and I were just talking about the names I've been considering (Arden, Erin, Meredith, Maryn), and realized that they all sound like alternate forms of Sheridan. I love her name but I can't go with a crappier version of it for this kid! I've decided I don't like Leah or Olivia that much; what about just Leigh? Of course, then I'd be naming BOTH my kids after Sheridan Amerling (her first and now middle names), and I can't come up with a good middle name for it. I'm still confused...

okay, here are my suggestions:
*violet or viola (my favorite girls names right now)
*merritt is still up for grabs!
*regan (probably one of those love-it-or-hate-it names) - it's from shakespeare's king lear, and it's pronounced ree-gan, not like the president.
*zora - you'll probably hate it, but i like it!
*lydia/lyda/lida - to me, these go well with sheridan
*liza/eliza

of course, you COULD have a boy, you know!

oh, and i forgot margaret, meg for short. or just meg, because i'm big on naming people what you intend to call them, too.

What do you guys think of Delaney? Matt and I just went through a ton of names, and we both kinda like that one. We could name her after our dear president, John Delaney. haha...

I do like it, though...I'm not sure about a middle name, or how it sounds with the last name Taylor because of the two Long-A sounds...

I have a bad association with Delaney, plus I'm opposed to "lastnames as firstnames" when its not a family name.
How about Lane Taylor? Lane Olivia Taylor? Lane Bryant Taylor! ;-)

[business_cas]

i KNEW you were going to say something about Delaney!

[alexicon]

Ummmm Delaney Pate?!
