Thanks. I'll definitely suggest using Anton to Martin. I love how Leo Crispin sound but BIL is Leonardo "Leo" and my brother wants to use Leopold "Leo". I do know Martin wants to use Leon with the...

Thanks guys. I have a soft spot for mythology so Njord is definitely on my list.

I love Evander Crispin but our last name ends in -er which stinks because I love so many -er names for boys. I've played with Anton before. Does Anton Crispin Baker sound okay or would Anthony...

My own personal girls list looks like this at the moment:

Blaire Hacinthia
Lilith Roisin/Gisella/Arcadia
Milena Olwen/Cyrene
Avery Hilja/Idonea

I need to mention them to Martin but I think...

I've re-fallen in love with Crispin as a middle name. The thing is I have no ideas as to what I would use. OH and I both like Isaac and James but other than that our tastes are bit different. He...

Njord is awesome! How do you pronounce Hjalte? I also like Eskil and Sejr.

I would love to have a little Loki running around especially consider that if my children are like DH they'll always be up to something. Odin is nice and it meets Hubby's requirement on epic.

There's no such thing as too long. I love lists of any length. I'll have to mention both of them to Martin soon.

Liesl is gorgeous. It reminds me of The Sound of Music which is a great association...

Thanks peachpie! I like Roisin, Violetta, Arnelle, Emmeline, and Katja.
Thanks Ottilie! That is a huge list. I love Arcadia, Camilla, Eir (too close to Erin?), Godiva (although I'll never be brave...

I can't help much as I've never had my own child. But my twin brother died during our birth. My mom refuses to talk about her pregnancy, my birth or my life up until my second birthday. My dad...

Alright ladies, I'm drawing blanks over here. I need some middle name ideas but have some very odd requirements.
1. Cool level: Epic. OH will not budge on the need for epicness. Gawain, Torbjørn and...

Thanks Ottilie! My extent of language is some limited Spanish and German plus English. I'm taking a second year of German during the spring semester but its still very broken.

I really think he's pumped about giving his kids awesome names. Every time we get a combo nailed out he goes on and on about how cool it is. He's silly like that.
Hopefully other people will be able...

Roo's nursery sounds amazing. I was thinking about dinosaurs for a little boy and a fish theme for girl or boy. Martin loves fish and tanks. But a forest sounds so perfect for a baby with Bjørn in...

Haha Ottilie. It is. Maybe I'll get Martin to agree to it one day but for now its not "epic" enough.
I've known one Bjørn my entire life and he was quite...unsavory but a lot of people butchered his...

I'm in the Midwest but am in of the most German areas. I love Germanic names but OH finds them too harsh so when he likes anything even close I'm generally happy.
I've played with Leif and I like it...

Thanks for your input. OH decided he likes Torbjorn since it has Bjorn and Thor in it.

Does James Torbjorn/Thorbjorn Baker sound okay?

Yep. Lol. I love names but kids are on a case by case basis. The people who's jobs require daily interaction with them seem saintly to me. I don't have the patience to teach or nurture someone's...

OH recently started watching Vikings with me on the History Channel and has repeatedly mentioned Bjorn. I love the sound and the meaning but it seems a little "out there". I've looked for something...

Jess: I have no desire to work with kids. I love them but I couldn't handle someone else's kid for hours upon hours a day. But my work-study job? I'm in a daycare. I'm majoring in Chemistry with a...

Catherine: Mustard

Isaac?

Over the past few months I've gotten a few ideas of what some of my friends would name their children and I wanted to share with all you lovely berries to see what the average 17-18 yr old girl...

According to the height calculators I can find puts my daughters between 5ft 5in and 5ft 8in. A son would be between 5ft 8in and 5ft 10in (guesses based off of OH's current height of 5ft 10in).

Some of my in laws better antics:

Frank & Oscar: jump out bedroom window on to the trampoline. Repeat for 30 min.
Edie: Climb into shower and bathe self with Martin's body wash. Try to rinse off...

I like so many of the names on these lists.
Marcus, Thor, Orion, Leander, Evander, Romulus and Damien have all been on the list at some point. If only OH would get on board with them. The only one...
