The Name Game

Since we were able to get all things confirmed healthy and good after the big 12 week hokey pokey ultrasound, we’ve both been really excited now. We’ve been talking about names and, considering that we are still on the birthday gender surprise bandwagon, we are having to think of names for both boys and girls. Even though, if we could pre-order our kid it we would request a boy, we have only been able to agree and come up with girl names. And only three; Paisley, Callie, and Hazel. I really like Olive, but he isn’t sold on that one yet. Boy’s names have been a real trip. The only names I like are Collin, Elliot, Oliver, and Bennett (Ben). He hates all of them. What names has he come up with? In total seriousness, he likes Hunter, Carl, and even threw out Gary. Hunter Fisher? How bout no. I like Finn but again, Finn Fisher? Dude… you are dooming your child for a lifetime of horrible jokes.  Carl and Gary just immediately bring a horrible shudder across my entire being. I looked at him and said “how do you look at a tiny baby and say “Carl!” or “Gary!”,  ummmm no. Not ever. So we are at a complete deadlock when it comes to boy’s names. Good thing we have 6 months to figure it out!
