Please help!!! Can't commit to a boy's name and DH shoots all my names down :(

[crisidrue]

I have 9 weeks until this baby comes and we just can't seem to find a name Our DS is named Trip, and if we have a girl in the future her name will be Delaney. We came across Grady last night and we both liked it, but I'm starting to have reservations on the name. I keep associating it with "grody Grady", and a lot of people on other forums think of "gravy". My favorite name is Jamison/Jameson, but DH associated that with whiskey. Please help with some suggestions, I am stressed and overwhelmed with this decision!!!

I also love Holden and Beckett, but DH said no. I also like Grey, but I don't think it's substantial enough for a first name.

Ooh, I love Brenner!!! Cooper is on my list too but I feel like it's gainig in popularity. I haven't ever come across a Holden or Beckett anywhere though. I like Thayer too but DH would never go for it.

Has your husband come up with a list of names he likes? I would suggest entering Trip, Delaney, Jameson, Grady, Holden, and Beckett into Nymbler and get him to make a list of names he likes from that.

I like Grady a lot. I think it sounds cute on a little boy, and also ages well, i can totally see it on a grown man! And it doesnt make me think of Gravy at all!

I like Holden and Beckett as well, but might be getting a little too trendy/popular for my taste. I also think Grady goes well with Trip, but might sound a little too rhymey with Delaney? but the way I see it, is right now you are having a boy, so you should pick a name for him that you love, not that necessarily goes with a daughter you may or may not have in the future.

best of luck!

Grady just makes me think of gravy, sorry. I wouldn't worry about what hypothetical children's names are, seeing as they may never exist. If you love Grady, use it. Only suggestion I have is Jenner.
