I have always liked the name Matthew.

I love the name, Ivan. I know it is not in favor, trust me, I know...I wanted to name my first son that and I just got these 'looks' lol. But I still love it anyways :)

Best wishes to you and thanks for such a nice contest :)

When I was pregnant with my daughter, I thought if it was a boy I'd name him Gavin. It just is unique and strong. Best of luck!

LadySnow said...

Our sons are Titus and Elijah...so I like those a lot. :D

Bunny B said...

How about Alex? Or Gabe? :)
Maybe you could suggest what kind of names you like -- or starting with what letter.
Thanks for the chance!

Re said...

Shalie said...

I have to say that I love Parker, but for something that you don't have listed....I heard Brody the other day and thought that was cute. Love your blog, and I would LOVE to win a bloggy makeover!

Pate Family said...

I love the name Justin. It's my dh's name & I just adore that name! I'm 5 weeks behind you, and my daughter was born 11/16 :) Best of luck!

Julie Donahue said...

I work with babies, and it seems like there is a surge of "old fashioned" Bible names. We see a lot of: Malachi, Elijah, Isaiah, Ezekial, Micah and even a Nehemiah.

Jessica said...

My sister's son's name is Grant. I love that name! My son is Jacob, which is rather common.

Thanks for the chance to win!

Kathleen W. said...

I love the name Weston, after the photographer Edward Weston. And also the names Evan and Oliver, which my husband rejected. My son is named Soren, after Soren Kierkegaard, the Danish Philosopher. I hope our next is a girl because I get to take the lead on that name!

How about Bryce Landon.

Christi S said...

I would LOVE to win this! My sons' names are Isaac Christopher and Adam Copeland. How about my nephews? They are Robert Ked, Logan Mack, Wesley Dale, David Keener, and Ian Neal. Boy's names are harder to come up with, I think!

Jennie said...

I love your designs!

I'm a bit partial to Nathan and Micah. :-) But for your choices on the left bar, I like Parker best.

Suz said...

You already have this name on your list, but I love the name Graham!

Also, just recently I heard the name Kye... I think that is really cute too! Graham Kye..

I like Tyson too...

Ellen said...

I love nicholi... would also love to win a makeover bloggy style :)

Our son's name would have been Ian. The middle name was a toss up, as the hubs originally wanted Ian Anakin (yes, Star Wars), but then when we were expecting, it was going to be Ian Platt (for the Platt River in Michigan.) Turns out that baby was a girl, Bailey Madeline who has since moved on to heaven ahead of us. BUT! We adopted and have a great daughter, Kealey! :)

Thank you!

Tami@ourhouse said...

I was going to say Matthew, but that seems a bit popular! And Nathan. This is fun!

Katie Brown said...

I'm very partial to Parker because I have a Parker Edward and I love the name Grayson! Congratulations.

Kelli said...

Malachi, Drew, Dustin, Evan ... Thomas

Trish said...

This would be awesome to win! Hmm boys names. What about Karsen, or Spencer? Good luck, you'll know when you find the perfect name. that is the one that just keeps coming back to you. Thanks for the giveaway! trishblack(at)juno(dot)com

Becky @ BoysRuleMyLife said...

We chose our boys' names from family names. When our third boy came along, we had to look at last names and found one that we really liked... Wittman. We call him Witt. I'm not suggesting that's what you use, but more just saying not to forget to think of last names as first names. You'll generally get something unique and possibly make someone very happy for choosing their last name. Best wishes and congratulations!!!

Mommyton said...

I am new to this whole Blog thing and JUST signed up a Blogger page but have NOTHING on it! I so need your help! I ahve two boys Blake & Sean. I love the names Caleb, Hayden, and Connor. If we have a 3rd it will probably be one of those.

Anonymous said...

When I was pregnant with Dagan I wanted to name him Kannon. I love the name! We had a hard time agreeing also.

Nancy M. said...

I just went thru this last year when my son was born. We debated forever over names. We just kept going through the baby name book. How about Bruce, Daniel, or Joel?

Norberto Kurrle said...

Oh wow, what an awesome giveaway. I'd like to win this more than anything else. My blog needs a lift!

I'm very fond of Biblical names...Matthew, Timothy, Luke. Congrats on your baby!

PS said...

I love the name Anderson. Though my husband just told me there is a famous Anderson on CNN...we don't have cable so I'm stuck in the dark ages!

Margaret said...

How about Colin? I like Conor, too, but that's becoming more common these days.
Love your blog work!

JoAnna said...

MAX!! Can be Maximus, or Maximillion, Maxwell or just Max. LOVE that name! Keylor was going to be Max if a boy... but then again you probably knew that. :)

Love you!

I DID link to your post and REALLY need a new look! Do you do hair/makeup/wardrobe makovers too? ;)

Fiddle D. Dee said...

How about Andrew?? I really like that one! Congrats on your little boy!!

Ginny said...

I like Andrew & Cody

Charlotte said...

How about Ethan? I didn't see that in any of the other suggestions.

Kim said...

Well I'm partial to the name Samuel as that is what we named our son. Before we adopted him his name was Justin. We liked the name but had already picked out Sam. I'm also partial to the name Henry. Don't hear it much but it's a good one.

I've subscribed to your feed so that I can keep up with your blog.

Thank you for this wonderful giveaway that you are participating in!

Lesley said...

We have a son called Patrick George - so I would suggest that. We are expecting in November, and if it's a boy we will call him Owen Edward (and you're free to go with Owen as well if you like!)

Kristofer said...

oh . . . i heart baby names! my boys are: asher, tate, gaven. some of my nephews names are: hunter, cooper, corbin, beckham (beck), lance. if i ever had another boy i like: crew, beau . . . good luck picking one out, i'm sure when you see him the right name will pop out! kristen.

Jenn said...

Well, I have an Ethan and a Joel. I love the names Isaac, Asher, and Caleb. Bryan is a fave. My daughter's name is Honor, but I've seen it used as a boy's name as well. I naively thought I would have the only Honor in the world, but I give up now that a celebrity has given their daughter this name.

Unknown said...

I've always liked the names Luke and Claude, but I'm also a big fan of being able to shorten a name and love the name Alexander for that!

AudreyO said...

I have always loved the name Aiden for some reason.

Lisa @ Crazy Adventures in Parenting said...

I'm due end of Sept and our boys name (if its a boy) will be Grayson. But I love the names you've picked, perhaps just switchin' them around a bit and mix-matching the first/middles to make it "the one". I believe you're almost there, superb name choices :)

Robyn Wright of Robyn's Online World said...

I'm so bad at picking out names. It took forever for us to pick out my son's name and then it ended up getting changed at the last minute anyway. It was supposed to be Alexander which I like better than his actual name still - so that is my suggestion :-)

Love your portfolio!

the Pulleys said...

Trust me & others...your life is completely 100% blog-worthy! Still in major favor of Cooper Jack the most, but I do love short names for boys personally. 3-4 letter names esp. Random, I know.
Love the contest! Love your giveaways! You have many talents! TTYL!

Julie said...

I like Landon Andrew. Then his initials would be LAF. And everyone needs to laugh.

But I also like the name Reiker.

CanCan said...

I like the names Ethan and Oliver (not together).

dwazdip said...

Congrats on the coming baby! When I was preggers with my little girl, I was sure it was going to be a boy and had a name all ready for him: Grant Jacob.

Angie said...

Tyler, Justin, Brandon, Luke

I like those names.

Thanks for the chance to enter your giveaway.

Audra said...

I like the names you have selected but I would mix them up and go with Parker Jack. When naming our little guy we wanted a first name that was unique but that people wouldn't be like "Uh what was that or HOW? do you spell that?" We picked Porter Joseph but I also think Anderson is a cute first name. Thanks so much for the great giveaway!

Allison Nelson said...

Easton was my grandpa's middle name and I love it. I would have liked to use it, but God gave us all girls.

We also love the name Drew.

Anonymous said...

Cooper or carter

Anonymous said...

Grandma says Andrew Jack, after uncle and grandpa. That way if you wanted to shorten you could go with Andy or Drew.

Molly C. said...

My boys are named Samuel Marc, Michael Mattos, Brandon Riley, Andrew Lynn & Joshua Ryder. Good luck with your new little one! :)
