We have been making a list of boy names trying to decide what we want to name our son in December. So far we have just added to the list and and haven't really narrowed it down. So now it is your turn. You can do one of two things or both. List your top three picks, and/or list them in order from your favorite to least favorite. Right now they are listed in no particular order.
Coenn
Quinn
Ian
Liam
James
Christopher
Ethan
Jake
Jack
Dylan
Philip
Eric
Gavin
Grant
Graham
So good luck and have fun. We are interested to see what you all think. Also as mentioned in Marni's blog, feel free to add to this list with your own suggestions.

So I see that you didn't add any of my previous suggestions to your list!I can't believe it! Just kidding. I do however think that Mason Andrew is a very cute name. I also really like most of the names on your list. A few of my favorites in no particular order are: Liam, Christopher, Ethan and Dylan. I also really like James but then you'd have both Lilly and James Potter who are Harry's parents in the books. Kendall would think that was awesome!
Sorry, we haven't added anyones suggestions to this list. Not because we don't like them, just because we know that people like them, at least we hope since they were suggested, we just wanted to see what people thought of the names we have thought of.
Well, Gavin has been on my name list for a while. I love that name! We also like Jack and Jake and Dylan. Mike likes Grant and I like Graham.
All of those names are nice! You really can't go wrong.
Of this list, I like Christopher, Ethan, Graham and Philip, but they are all great names. I assume the middle name will be Andrew, so pair each name with Andrew and see which one works the best or you like the best. Hopefully, you won't have the trouble we did naming Nathan. It was two weeks after he was born before we named him Nathan (he came home from the hospital with a different name--we had to change the birth certificate and everything), but Nathan was the name he needed to have--the other one (can't even remember what it was now) just didn't fit him.
It's fun seeing your choices, though, and if you think of others, post them so we can 'vote' on them too.
It was Brendan Hollis Potter...he didn't end up keeping the first name or the middle one! Mom, you felt so guilty for years because Mammy thought that his middle name was Hollis still, so when David was born his middle names was GOING to be Hollis regardless, just to ease your guilt!
I though his first name was Bartholamew (not sure how it was spelled) for those first 2 weeks. I was sure of it!
Seriously? Bartholomew??? Alison is right, it was Brendan Hollis. We loved the name but everytime we tried to call him that it just wasn't working so everyone just called him "the baby" until we hit on Nathan and it seemed to fit.
Bartholomew was the name of a dog we had (a really cute and smart dog, too) and we called him Bart or Barth for short. Right after I posted last time, I remembered that Brendan was what we named him...as for the Hollis as the middle name, it was still in the running along with Joshua and we left it up to your dad to decide the middle name when he blessed him and as it turned it, he chose Joshua, which worked out great as Hollis definitely works as David's middle name, but you're right, I didn't want to tell Mammy that we changed the name...she was so excited to finally have someone named after her that I knew one of the boys would have the middle name Hollis.
I like the name Dylan James Potter, I think that is a super cute one and them you get two of the names that you have one the list without having to decide on one or the other!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!! Have a great day!
