[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there! I have been a bit absent on the name boards for a bit. Not to delve too deeply into things, but I’ve been dealing with infertility. DH and I have started the process for IVF, so my mind has started churning with names once more. Lately, I’ve been dreaming nonstop about twin boys, so I’m trying to find a second name.
We have one boy name set in stone, which is [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] [name_m]Hemingway[/name_m]. I’d love some help settling on a second boy name. It’s all fun and hypothetical, but I’ve been agonizing over trying to find another name that I love as much as [name_m]Harrison[/name_m].
Here are some names on my list that I like, but am not sure I love:
[name_m]Fletcher[/name_m]
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_m]Riordan[/name_m]
[name_m]Lincoln[/name_m]
[name_m]Shepherd[/name_m]
[name_u]Grady[/name_u] (love Grayden, but find it a bit too “made up” or “trendy” for my liking)
[name_m]Wilder[/name_m]
A name that I always imagined with [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] that I am not comfortable using any longer is [name_u]Rowan[/name_u]. Two reasons: DH has a cousin who named her son that name and it tainted the name for him and my best friend is using it as a MN for her son (I “gifted” the name to her after DH expressed his distaste for it) and I’d feel somewhat weird “taking it back.”
Middle name is undecided, but I am thinking either Gaiman (after [name_u]Neil[/name_u] Gaiman), [name_u]James[/name_u], [name_m]Frederick[/name_m], or Edlund. Please don’t feel like you have to make a name go with either of these middle names, as I am still undecided.
Thanks in advance!
