Eh, its not at its best. But I've narrowed down what I like and what I don't like at all. The boys is much easier. For the girls... I don't even have any combo's. Just a bunch of names I like haha.

I'm going to color code my names For girls, purple will be Mike and I's name, pink will be my name only. For boys, blue will be Mike and I's, green mine only.

Charlotte "Cha cha"
Hadley "Haddie"
Alexandria "Andie"
Willow
Elsie
Amelia "Mia"
Aria
Alana
Lillian "Lily"
Ivy
Linnea
Sydney
Fern
Aurora "Aura"
Laura "Lo"
Alice
Skye / Skyler
Jane / June
Hazel
Viola
Cadence "Cade / Cadie"
Roman Connor / Roman Grey
Hunter Zachary
Liam
Henry
Alexander
Franklin
Theodore
Henry
Logan
Charles
Cade / Caden
Forrest
Ryan
Graham
Bennett
Max
Archer Cole
Eli / Elijah
Wilson
Brighton



I know me and Mike have more boys names somewhere, but I can't immediately think of them. I've got my list written out on papers all over my room, and this is exactly what it looks like :/ Unfortunately. For girls, I guess I'm not horribly worried about combo's. My first little girls middle name will be Jade, so forming an attachment to another combo could be bad. But for boys... so much unknown haha.

I was talking to Mike the other day and mentioned liking the name Grey and he loved it, and immediately spit out Roman Grey. He was in love, but when I mentioned Roman Connor he's just like "Well, I love them both..." and he wasn't sure which his favorite was. We have plenty of time to figure out this difficult decision, haha. I do love both though. Both flow amazing with his last name <3 I suppose technically Grey might flow better, having a 2-1-3 syllable ratio there, rather than 2-2-3. But I am slightly worried about Grey.. its silly, but Mike and I occasionally tease each other saying "your so grayyyyyyyy"- a (more polite?) homophobic slur saying gray rather than gay. It doesn't bother Mike at all, and it only bothers me a little. But we'd have to make sure by the time we had a boy we stopped saying that


ANYWAYS! There's my namelist! I'm opened to any comments! <3 I am never going to reject suggestions, though at the moment I seem to be having a hard time liking a lot of names <|3 mostly girls, unfortunately. But idk! Felt like announcing to the world where my list is at I swear I'll stop taking up so much posting room now

[coyote19]

I really like Alice, it's classy and underused in my opinion! Over all I like majority of your names, the only one I'd personally never use is Hadley. There's something about about having -Had- in a name I just dislike.
From your boys my favorite would be Roman Grey, I'm really liking the name Roman! I believe you were the one that said your father would point out unfortunate connections right? Well, with Roman Grey the name Grey might be thought to be inspired by the character in Fifty Shades of Gray, I haven't read it so I can't say whether that's good or not!
I also have a soft spot for Archer as a name shame your SO doesn't care for it.

[The Future Mrs B]

I love your names!! And some of the nicknames are adorable and unexpected. I did each of these individually but my computer closed the internet when I was almost done and I didn't have the patience to retype it all. You have an amazing taste in names.

[Meghan<3]

Your name list is always so lovely! I don't think combos are super important right now... the names you have stand out great on their own.

Charlotte "Cha cha" - Cha cha is a cute nickname, one most people wouldn't necessarily expect. And Charlotte is gorgeous.
Hadley "Haddie" - Very cute. Haddie is darling.
Alexandria "Andie" - I like the nickname Andie for a girl... Alexandria is nice, but I'm sure many people mistake it for Alexandra.
Willow - Not my style, sorry.
Elsie - Very cute. I prefer Elsa, though, since Elsie seems a bit nicknamey.
Amelia "Mia" - Lovely. I adore the nickname Mia.
Aria - Pretty.
Alana - Love it!
Lillian "Lily" - Very pretty and classic.
Ivy - Love it!
Linnea - Unique and pretty.
Sydney - Lovely!
Fern - Unique and pretty!
Aurora "Aura" - I like the nickname Aura, but I also think Aurora is pretty enough on its own!
Laura "Lo" - Very pretty.
Alice - Lovely.
Skye / Skyler - Not my style, sorry.
Jane / June - I prefer Jane, but both names are lovely.
Hazel - Nice.
Viola - Very pretty!
Cadence "Cade / Cadie" - Not my style, sorry.
Roman Connor / Roman Grey - I prefer Roman Connor... but then again I might be biased, since I have Henry Connor on my list!
Hunter Zachary - Handsome, though Hunter is nms.
Liam - Handsome. I prefer William with the nickname Liam, though.
Henry - Amazing!
Alexander - Handsome.
Franklin - Totally crushing on this name. Very handsome.
Theodore - Love it!
Logan - Love it!
Charles - Love it!
Cade / Caden - I prefer Caden. Cade seems too short.
Forrest - Not my style, sorry.
Ryan - Nice.
Graham - Reminds me of graham crackers, to be honest!
Bennett - Love it!
Max - I prefer Maxwell.
Archer Cole - Love it!
Eli / Elijah - I prefer Eli.
Wilson - Handsome!
Brighton - Not my style, sorry.

[Remy Hadley]

Thanks ladies!!

I agree, Meghan. I'm not to worried about combo's <3 I wont need to worry about finding a middle name for any girls names unless I have a second daughter, or more than four sons! Which will be some time from now haha I'm happy I at least have some names I like though. I'm not head over heels with most, but I like them <3

Aww Erin I SO hate that!!! A lot of times I leave a tab up with my work on names and Mike will go on my computer and accidently x the page out Thank you so much though!!! <3

Coyote19, I agree on Alice!! I think he doesn't like it mostly because his mothers name is Alyson "Ally" and he seems unimpressed with most names that have "allie" in them. Unfortunate though! I love Alice <3 And yupp! Dad is normally the one to point those things out. I've never read 50 Shades of Gray, so I didn't even think of the connection. But it does make sense :l I heard the book was good, though a bit overly erotic. But other than that I know nothing of it. By the time I have a child, hopefully the book will be getting older haha. Even if so I don't think it'd stop me, middle names are a good place for names as such (; I had a dream that I had a baby named Archer, and I called him Archie lol! I used to dislike Archie, but since the dream I've been growing fond haha x Mike does like it, actually! I must have put it in the wrong color? Mike is a fan of Archer Cole <3

Brittany, I really like quite a few!!
Charlotte Eleanor, Hadley Charlize, Alexandria Kate, Alexandria Jade, Willow Viola, Elsie Seraphina, Elsie Katya, Amelia Jade, Amelia Sophie, Amelia Fallon Marie, Aria Charlotte, Aria Vivienne, Alana Rosalind, Lillian Thea, Lilian Phoebe, Lilian Claudia, Ivy Genevieve, Ivy Samantha, Linnea Josephine, Sydney Arialle, Sydney Emilia, Fern Piper, Fern Ophelia, Aurora Yasmine, Aurora Hazel, Laura Willow, Alice Evangeline, Skye / Skyler Adelaide, Skye/Skyler Tegan, Jane / June elisabeth, Jane/ June Scarlett, Jane/ June Harriett, Hazel Katarina, Viola Emmeline, Cadence Elsa, Cadence Juliet. Liam Alastair, Henry Theodore, Henry Maxwell, Alexander Flynn, Alexander Kane (Caine would be adorable!!), Franklin Jesse, Franklin Dempsey, Theodore Callum, Logan Charles, Logan Nikolai, Charles Aaron, Cade/ Caden Benjamin, Forrest Bennett, Forest Eugene, Ryan Alexander, Ryan Bentley, Graham Connor, Graham Louis, Bennett Lyle, Max Camden, Eli / Elijah Samuel, Eli/ Elijah Gregory, Wilson Andrew, Wilson Teague, Brighton Max, Brighton Henry, Brighton Theodore.
I figured you'd like my having Brighton on the list (; thank you!!

Meghan: The I does kind of hide out in Alexandria, but default of it being a small letter ): But I do like how it sounds <3 I think it makes the nick name Andie more into the name <3 I do also like Elsa as well, hmm <3 I guess its like I prefer Elsie, but Elsa is nice. Aurora does work pretty well on its own <3 I could use Aura, I could use Rory, but its not that long a name sooo <3 Graham reminds me of Graham crackers as well, actually lol. Or Teddy Grahams! But I don't think it to be a bad association <3 Not like a teasable one, right? :/


Again, thanks bunches on the comments and suggestions!!! Lots to think about<3333

[coyote19]

It's quite possible I got distracted and forgot how you were coding the names and good point about it being in the middle name spot! Not many people will know his middle name after all. With Fifty Shades of Grey I think it's made it's mark on history and will follow the same route as Twilight, though I have no clue if an erotic book would ever get movie deals like Twilight did lol!

Archer Cole is really charming : ) and I can see why someone wouldn't like the nn Archie, I associate it with the old comic strips but I still really love the name Archer just like I do with Arthur.

[Remy Hadley]

Its no problem! Grey would remain well hidden but still there for my pleaasure hehe! <3 oh, is it? I guess I have heard that a lot of people have been reading it, but not that many. But then again I never noticed the Twilight fans anywhere until a while after it came out :') haha slow to the trends here But yeah, my coworker had to put it down cause she said it wasnt comfortable to read at work :l so I'm guessing it'd make like a minimum of PG -13 movie haha, doesnt appeal to all crowds (;

Thank you!! Lately I'm liking it more, Roman Grey and Archer Cole together, or even Roman Connor and Archer Cole. My only concern for the latter is both middle names start with Co- yeah, Archie does sound old. I think I'd probably end up using it anyways haha, I am a big fan of old fashioned names<3 its funny how Arthur sounds so alike tp Archer but for whatever reason I dislike it :/ strangeness!

[Sami Marie]

I'm going to color code my names For girls, purple will be Mike and I's name, pink will be my name only. For boys, blue will be Mike and I's, green mine only.

Charlotte "Cha cha" I love Charlotte with Charlie for a nickname. Cha Cha reminds me of a character in Grease, she was hispanic and in the dance scenes.
Hadley "Haddie" Hadley reminds me of the town in Michigan. Its rather small from what i've heard of it. I think Haddie works as a nickname for this as well.
Alexandria "Andie" Alexandria is a city in Maryland. Andie is a refreshing nickname for Alexandra/Alexandria names. I have Alexandra on my GP list.
Willow I like this as a middle name.
Elsie This gives me the older woman vibe mostly because I have a few great-great aunts named this. I believe one was Elsie Edna Dorothy. LOL.
Amelia "Mia" I love Amelia Its on my regular list. I have a great-great aunt named Emelia.
Aria I prefer Aria as a nickname for Ariana but I think it'd work for Alexandria as well.
Alana I love this. I know a little girl named this. Not sure what her middle name is tho.
Lillian "Lily" Neither are on my list but i do like them. I have a "niece" nicknamed Lily. And a friend's top girl name is Lillian Renee but she's got 3 boys and from what they says they are done having kids (she feels that boys are all she'll get so no sense in trying for a girl).
Ivy Prefer this as a middle name.
Linnea i struggle with this pronounciation. Altho i pronounce it like Lanae or Jenae which are both middle names of someone I know.
Sydney I know more dogs named Sydney than I do humans.
Fern prefer this as a middle name only.
Aurora "Aura" I love Aurora and have always thought of Rori as a nickname. So Aura is refreshing in terms of nicknames for this.
Laura "Lo" I know several Lauren's that go by Lo or Lor. Although Laura doesnt make either list, Lauren does make the GP list.
Alice I like this but I would use it more as a middle name.
Skye / Skyler Funny enough, I know more Skylers that are boys than girls. So I see Skyler as a boys name and Skye as a girls name (more often i prefer Skye as a middle name).
Jane / June Neither Jane or June are on my lists but i do like them as middle names. I have Jana (regular) and Janelle (GP) on my lists tho.
Hazel Reminds me of my mother's coffee (Hazelnut)
Viola reminds me of the Amanda Bynes character in "She's the Man"
Cadence "Cade / Cadie" I prefer Cadie as a nickname for this. Altho I'm not a fan of Cadence
Roman Connor / Roman Grey Not a huge fan of Roman but I do like the flow of Roman Connor.
Hunter Zachary Hunter makes my GP list (mostly cause a friend had a little boy last december and named him Hunter Lee). I do like the flow of Hunter Zachary tho.
Liam Liam is on my usable list. Im not completely sure what draws me to it tho.
Henry this isnt my style as a first name altho I do like it as a middle name.
Alexander This is on Dustin and My short list as well. Our top combo is Alexander Lucas.
Franklin reminds me of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, which is the 32nd President of the US.
Theodore Theodore also reminds me of Theodore Roosevelt, which is the 26th President of the US. But that being said I do have it on my GP list.
Henry (you know you have this on here twice right? LOL)
Logan makes my regular list. Altho i do think of Logan from Xmen (Wolverine) but Xmen is and always will be my favorite comics and movies.
Charles Charles is also on my regular list. I have nicknames listed for it as well including Charlie, Chuck, Chas, Chip, and a new add on Chase.
Cade / Caden I like Caden over Cade. Which Caden makes my regular list with the middle name Patrick.
Forrest I'm not a fan of this particular name.
Ryan this makes my regular list as well. I've always like Ryan.
Graham Not a huge fan of Graham.
Bennett this is also on my regular list. I like Bennett Elijah as a combo.
Max makes my GP list with the middle name George. Max is on the GP list mostly because i had a dog named Maxine but we always called her Max or Maxie.
Archer Cole Not a fan of Archer but love Cole.
Eli / Elijah I prefer Elijah and the occasional nickname of Eli.
Wilson Not a fan of Wilson (its too surname-y to me)
Brighton This reminds me of the town in Michigan.

Jade flows well with all of your girl names expect probably Jane and June. But i do like it better with Charlotte, and Aurora.

I agree with you on Roman flowing well with Grey and Connor but I do prefer Connor over Grey. (If that makes sense).

I hope my comments helped and I think Dustin and I have the same issue with girls names. He likes a lot more boys than girls from what i've noticed. I mean our lists are 9 boys and 4 girls currently. LOL.
