Hi! I'm in my second trimester, but I still don't know the sex of my baby. I don't have any idea how to name my baby, whether it;s going to be a girl, or boy. Please, share your ideas. How did you name your baby?? May be it'll help me to come up with some pretty name...:)

thanks.

My bf and I said if it was a girl I named her and a boy he would. Well my son't name is michael trey dominic. We call him trey. It is because trey means 3 and he is the third michael after daddy and grampy. Dominic is my stepdads middle name.

We checked the sex of our baby in two of our scans. First during my 13th week and the 2nd is during my 20th just to confirm it. Since we are expecting a boy, we have decided to name him after my husband's father (like my husband. He is carrying his father's name too). His father's name will serve as his second name. The first name is a bit tricky bec we wouldn't like to give him a name where kids can make fun of it. You know how kids are, they can be a bit nasty! I.E., william (bill), etc. We are also looking at what the initials would end up. Ha ha.... Sounds pretty complicated but fun doing it. Another way of looking is to check the origin and meaning of the name. Goodluck.

Thank you! I am foreigner, but I want my baby to have an american name. So my husband does. We cannot name him/her my father's name or my husband mother's name. So we are trying to think of just usual pretty american name, like jeniffer, may be, or brandon for a boy. Is brandon a usual name here?

Common Names = Bleh!
Yeah, my name is jessica, which was all the rage back in the mid-80's. Also, cody and kyle were pretty trendy back then. Which means they're lots and lots of them having babies now-a-days.

My u/s confirmed what I already knew in my heart that I was going to have a little boy. His name was justin chandler the whole time I was pregnant with him. His dad even brought something to the house for him with a name tag for justin chandler the day we were to come home from the hospital. He never made it to the hospital while I was there. So he found out that afternoon when we got to the house that baby's name had been changed. He is now heath alexander. No other name would fit him. That name is perfect for him. When it comes time to find a name for your little bundle you'll know just the right one.

:d This Just Made Me Laugh!
Lol. There was this mexican girl at my school who was eating a "sancho" from our local taco bell-like restaraunt. She's like, "you know what 'sancho' means, right?" I told her that I didn't know. She explained, "if a guy and girl are married, and the girl cheats, a 'sancho' is the 'other man' that she's not married to." I don't know if this is true, but it's still funny to me.
