    1 week away...

    ...and still no baby name!

    I have posted here before to get all of your opinions on boys names seeing that dh and I couldn't agree/decide. Now here I am a week away from delivery and we are still clueless. I feel like I'm just not connecting or "in love" with a name. We don't even have a middle name picked out. Any suggestions? Ideas? Opinions? Here is the list we have so far:

    Garrison
    Preston- is this name outdated?
    Bennett


    Thank you!!

    Garrison-I love Garrison! Not common and is a great growing up name. Names similar to Garrison are Garrett, Garen and Gary.
    Preston- So cute! I know someone with the name Preston and he's a funny guy. It's kind of a preppy name, but I like it. Names similiar to Preston are Presley and Peter.
    Bennett- Not really my style. Benedict is what comes to mind right away. What about Bentley?

    I love Bennett and Preston, both are adorable.

    Garrison doesn't sound nice to my ears, and is too last namey for me.

    Other ideas..
    Samson, Leland, Atticus, Bowan, Nikolai, Marshall, Declan, Flynn, Copeland, Regan, Shea, Pierce?

    Garrison- my favorite of yours, but I like Harrison better. He'll probably get Gary at some point, so make sure you like that too.
    Preston- I think this is just ok, as pp said, it's preppy.
    Bennett- not the best, though I do LOVE nn Ben.

    Suggestions: Harrison, Jefferson, Parker, Hunter, Emerson, Anderson, Forrest, Porter, Graham, Brigham, Henry, Benson, Wilson, Carter

    I'm more partial to Preston and Bennett. They are both equal winners in my book. Garrison reminds me of the cartoon South Park or also the name "Gary", which I'm not fond of. I like what a PP suggested with Harrison.
