We're still not 100% on the name for our Chat Icon and we are due in 3 weeks! Chat Icon

But, we've had the two names we are down to since before we were pregnant.

It took us a while to settle on a boy name but we still have two choices for a girl. We figure it will be a wait and see moment!

Re: When did you start picking baby names?

I had names picked out since I was 5 years old... Jack & Britney. ((Jack from Jack & The Beanstalk and Britney from Alvin & The Chipmunks))
We found ouit we were having a boy and we couldn't really use Jack, because our nephew is Jackson and I felt they were too close in age to have such a similar name. I had a long list I liked and so did DH, none of which matched. I finally convinced him to use one my names around 20 weeks.

DH and I had our girl's name picked out about 5 years ago.. and we never came up with a boys name at all.. and when we found out we were having a Chat Icon , it was pretty easy and set in stone what we are going to name her.Chat Icon

When I was pregnant with number 1, I always liked the name Jared because of a friend who had the same name different name.

If I had a girl, I always knew what the name would be because it's after my grandmother.Chat Icon

Re: When did you start picking baby names?

With our DD, we knew before we were married what we wanted for a girl's name.

For DS we started talking names right away, since I had a feeling it was a boy the whole time.

With this one, I want to wait until after the Level 2 to talk names, so we don't fight unneccesarily.Chat Icon We never agree on boys names, so if it is a girl, we can save a lot of arguing!

Re: When did you start picking baby names?

we had our girl's name picked out before we were married, too. i didn't like the name DH liked for a boy, and he didn't like the name i did.

we didn't pick Chat Icon 's name until week 10 or so, and we definitely decided to use it when we found out that he was a boy - so, about a week and a half ago.

We had the named picked out for Chat Icon Chat Icon before we even got pregnant. We talked about it while we were engaged, and parenthood was so far off in the distance. Just a fun conversation to have about our future together. Chat Icon

Re: When did you start picking baby names?

We knew the name (regardless if boy or girl) since before I was pg.

Next time around we would only have a problem if I get pregnant with another boy. Girl name is still set Chat Icon

Re: When did you start picking baby names?

DH and I talked about baby names for a while, but in reality when we were offically PG, we started to figure out names for either a boy or girl. At my Level II, we found out we were having a Chat Icon and started narrowing names down.
