So, We are pregnant with our Second son, and ever since we have found out the gender... my husband and I have been trying to think of boy names. We have a few picked out but it's nothing I feel 100% certain about. With our first we knew at 4-5 months what we were going to name him. This round is so much more difficult. Any suggestions for names that go along with Teagan.. without sounding similar.. but just as unique

we had a short list of our fav names for our first. we didnt pick one until she was born. we looked at her and knew straight away that she was Layla and nothing else. we are planning on doing the same with our baby boy due in nov. we have our list but nothing set in stone yet. i dont like the idea of naming a baby before you've even seen them for the first time. good luck with your search.

=) My husband's name is Luke and love it very very much!!! I like how theyre different and not heard of on a day to day basis. I never thought naming a child can be so stressful lol. Naming the first one was simple.. the second one... I think about it everyday

I had a girl's name all picked out for this baby and turns out no girl, which is kind of weird because I've only ever had one gender's name picked out when I get pregnant and that's what the baby turned out to be. This one threw me a little. Boy names that we have come up with in the past are
Anthony Philip
Christian David
Brian William
James Christopher

We are in the group of people who like traditional names, drives my sister crazy. Good luck.

I am in love with the name Owen! I think it's very unique! unsure what you would use as a middle name though.

I was in the same boat as you when we found out we're having another boy. I had a boy name and a girl name picked out while we were still TTC DS, so it wasn't an issue then. When I found out I was pregnant this time, I was planning on using the girl's name we had picked out last time.

I didn't put any effort into thinking up a boy's name until after we found out the gender because I thought it would be a waste of time lol. After I found out it's a boy, the first thought was "Oh crap, I used all the good names on DS!"

I googled "baby names" and came across a site that you can limit your choices by number of letters, syllables, gender, origin, etc. For me, it was important to have a single syllable, four letter name.

I always hated my name growing up cause it was so long and unweildy :P So my sons' names are Luke and Gage

Owen is such a wonderful name I would have loved to use that!!

I had a cousin called Owen who died when we were little. The name would bring up too many family issues, but I would love it and it would help honor him i think. Too late now, no more babies for me. But its such a lovely name!!

Our girls middle name will be Olwyn, similar welsh name

We also like Owen.. But a friend of mine's baby died this past year and his name was Owen.. so I dont know how I would go and name him Owen.. after that.

we found out we are having another girl and the name thing was just as hard for us. We had boys names picked out.
Not so unique but Eliot and Rohan were our first picks
