My sister and her boyfriend are expecting their first baby in October. Listening to them talk - it may take them the next 7-8 months to agree on a name! I thought you guys may have some ideas I can pass on to them. The last name is Washington. Here is what they like so far...

Her List
Boy: Canaan

Girl -
Caroline
Charlotte
Elizabeth
Savannah

His List
Boy - doesn't have a first name idea, wants George (his dad's name) as the middle name. Yes this will give my nephew (if it is a boy) the name ??? George Washington. UGH! Is it really as bad as I think?

Girl -
Ainsley
Harper
London
Presley
Sadie

So, any ideas on names they may both like?

Well, I'm just goign to slip in my two cents and hope it helps <3


I'd suggest the spelling Cannon instead of Canaan to her.


If George is in the middle name slot, I don't think the Washington is too big an issue. If it was a first name I would totally agree.


My ideas for them would be


Cannon George Washington

Jasper George Washington

Oliver George Washington

Marshall George Washington

Henry George Washington

Noah George Washington

Robert George Washington

Quinn George Washington

Curtis George Washington

James George Washington


Ainsley Caroline Washington

Charlotte Harper Washington

Elizabeth London Washington

Savannah Presley Washington

Olivia Sadie Washington

Harper Avery Washington

Caroline Audrey Washington

Presley Juliet Washington

Sadie Grace Washington

I think I like your sister's girl names better. I love Caroline and Savannah. I also don't mind London, I suppose.

Xavier George
Marcus George
Xander George

Thanks for the ideas - I will pass them on to my sister. Canaan is pronounced KAYN-uhn, like the city in the Bible. Please, keep the suggestions coming! Right now they are saying a girl's middle name will be Michelle - my sister's middle name.

I like Charlotte Harper for a girl. I love Nicholas Conner (I know it's not on the list, it just comes to my mind). I agree that George as the middle name would be strange. I mean it's a presidents name.
