Has anyone come up with names for your little ones once you get your BFP?

I have names for both a boy and a girl. My DH has wanted to name his first son Austin Sebastion forever! LOL. He just likes the name austin, and his favorite surf spot in florida is sebastion. He told me the name when we were just barely dating so I knew that was not going to change! Good think I like it too! Our first girl will be named Emelia Christine. Emelia for my great-grandmother and Christine for my DH's mother who passed away 10 years ago. After that....??????????

Ooh - this is a fun topic!!
Back in 10th grade, my best friend's family hosted some members of an Irish track team. at their home while they were competing here in the U.S. (Needless to say, I spent the entire week over at her house!!) Ever since, I wanted to name my kid Aidan. But now, Aidans are everywhere, so after 11-12 yrs, I had to change my dream boy name! Now we decided on Charlie Finn. I fell in love with it, from watching Lost. Also, there are characters named Charlie in my other favorite series - Harry Potter and Twilight. And, DH's grandpa went by Charlie, as did my great grandpa.
My girl's name is Delaney. No middle name yet. I loved that name as a kid. My parents are big Jimmy Buffet fans, and my sister Savannah is named after his daughter. He has a song about his other daughter, Delaney.
Stardust - I love Emelia - so pretty...I love those "Em" names, but we already have an Emily and Emma in our family!

We have a list of names that we like - all of them Gaelic. I am such a dork I have them color coded...I get a huge list together, and then Sean narrows the list WAY down...and then I veto some of the names he likes...its great to get this over with now, 'cause at the rate we are going, if we were to start when I find out I am pregnant the baby probably would be nameless for a few months postpartum.
At the top of the list right now are ::
Boy
Artan - little bear
Cana (KON a) - wolf cub
Calder - stream
Cabhan (ka van) - grassy hill
Girl
Draighean (DRAY un) - black thorn
Edana - tiny flame
Rionach (ree in ock) - queenly
Sorcha (sor aka) - bright, radiant
Sean and I think that we will narrow it down to the top two of both boy and girl and then send them out to friends and family to 'vote'...but both of us are such control freaks we may just end up picking ourselves...probably right as the baby comes out

Yes, our names have been picked out for 5 years now. I doubt we will get to use them all since it's taking so long... posting them here may jeopardize my anonymity but I have 4 ready to go. 2 for each gender.

Yep, Gavin Elijah for a boy and Genevieve Olivia for a girl. I also really like the name Liam, DH isn't so fond of that one though.

I like Lydia but my DH doesn't and he likes LaShay but I don't. Haha! we both agree on Landyn for a boy though.

OMG... fun topic.

Girl: Molly Eloise, Margeaux Pilar
Boy: Maximus James, Jack Henri

Yeah... I like old sounding names.

P.S. My name really isn't Molly. =)

Molly.........I'm with you on the old names. Since I was a kid I wanted to name a girl Hannah after my great-grandma, but it's too common now. And I've always loved Isabella, but again, you hear that name everywhere these days.
Some of my other favorite girls names: Pheobe, Piper, June, Molly, Ruby, and a newer sounding one I like is Haven

For boys: Graham (and Gray for short), Ephraim, Cooper

Molly,
Too funny about your name not really being Molly! That's why screen names are so much fun! Smile

I don't have a full name picked out for the baby yet...that will have to wait until my hubby and I are together in Germany, but I had an amazing friend Tasha Dawn that was murdered in July by her hubby. She had a 3 1/2 yr old daughter and a son that she didn't get to see his first birthday...he was 8 months old when she died. I hurt for her family and mostly the kids so much. She was a beautiful person inside and out. For this child I want the middle name to be Dawn for a girl and Shawn for a boy (taSHA daWN). I haven't talked to Mike about this yet, but he knows how much I miss her so I'm sure he would understand.

Bethany- that is horrible. But what a great way to honor her. I think it is a great idea!
